The ATV quad bikes were absolutely hilarious. There was one person on our round with us, who wouldn't get off their phone, and the guide tried to tell her, but she wouldn't listen. She was holding us up, so in the end he let us overtake her and the experience was incredible. Honestly so much fun!. Would 100% be asking for Eka again if we were to come back to Bali and need a guide. Thank you!”
