Explore Mount Batur on this 4×4 Sunrise Sensation Private Tour in Bali.
THE BEST QUALIFIED GUIDES
They’re qualified, certified, they have first aid training (No other guide in Kintamani has this) and they’re English is great.
CUSTOM BUILT 4X4
Our vehicle is purpose built for comfort, panoramic views, power, protection from the elements, whilst maintaining maximum fun and enjoyment. No other vehicle in Kintamani is purpose built for tourists.
WALKING THE CRATER RIM
We’re the only tour company that offers walking around the rim of the crater as part of the tour. It takes an extra hour, however, it’s really worth it. After you’ve seen a sensational sunrise, walk that little bit extra up a little higher to get to the crater rim and walk around here. Your extra efforts will be rewarded with steam coming from the ground, you’ll see the other side of Kintamani with spectacular views of the caldera and farming, plus, if you’re lucky, you get to experience walking through clouds
SUSTAINABLE CITIES & COMMUNITIES
United Nations Global Goal number 11. We give $15 from every 4×4 Sunrise Sensation Private Tour to the community. This goes towards local infrastructure including roads, education for farmers on the correct use of the land and more sustainable farming techniques, plus training all the guides in the region, not just our own guides.
PRIVATE TOURS
If you book the tour for just you, or you have up to five more people that are part of your crew, no strangers will be on your tour. We don’t jam others in on the tour to make up the numbers. You’ve booked the tour; the tour is all yours. 1 – 6 people max. More importantly, you get to experience this tour with just your intimate group. People love this new tour design.
OUR TRANSFER DRIVERS
Our drivers, are great mates, have passable English, and are nice to our guests. Best of all ‘they wait’. They pick you up from your hotel on time, you do your selected tour, and they wait. They don’t sneak off and do other jobs whilst you’re on your tour with your personal belongings in their vehicle. Our drivers are 100% tried and tested trustworthy drivers. We pay our drivers to stay for the entire day, whether your tour is one hour, or 10 hours; they wait.
AUSTRALIAN OWNED, LOCAL GUIDES.
Basically, this means. Australian level safety and attention to detail, with local knowledge from our top-level guides. The CEO of Expedition Bali is an ex Safety Manager for a mining company. Small fire extinguishers are inside the seating area, grip tape on the steps, medical kit on board, the vehicle is serviced at half the recommended intervals. The local guides live in the area and have done so their entire lives. They know Kintamani inside out and back to front.
