“Such a chill day. Made took us to this tiny warung his family goes to — way better than anything on Google Maps. And the Monkey Forest was basically empty because he knew exactly when to go. 10/10 would recommend.”

Meet MadeSay hi on WhatsApp
A local who actually knows his island.
I grew up in the north of Bali and now live near Ubud with my three daughters. I've spent over ten years showing visitors the Bali I love — the quiet rice terrace paths, the warungs where the locals eat, the temples that don't make the top-ten lists.
I drive, I guide, I translate, I take the photos when you're mid-swing over the jungle. My English is fluent, my car is comfortable, and my day bends around you — not the other way around. I also offer airport pickup and drop-off if you need it.
What guests say
Real days, real people.
“We got to Lempuyang super early and basically had it to ourselves. Made knew the whole history of the temples and Tirta Gangga was an unexpected highlight. Also the man is never late, like ever.”

East Bali: Lempuyang Gates of Heaven
“Tukad Cepung with that light beam coming through the cave... insane. Made knew the exact time to be there. He even brought a dry bag for our phones which saved my life lol. All three waterfalls were amazing.”
Thijs
Waterfall Hunter: Three Hidden Falls
“Just told Made what I was into and he planned the whole day. Super flexible — when we wanted to stay longer at one spot he just adjusted everything. No stress, no weird upselling. Just a good dude who knows Bali inside out.”

“That sunset was something else. Made knew this spot where you could see the temple from above without all the crowds. Afterwards he brought us to a seafood place right on the cliff. Perfect evening honestly.”
Michel
Tanah Lot Sunset Temple Tour
“2am pickup sounds rough but Made showed up with coffee ready and handled everything with the mountain guide. Sunrise from the top was absolutely worth it. Hot springs after were the cherry on top. Legend.”
