Took this tour with a party of 8 and by far, it has been the highlight of our trip to Bali. The whole process from start to finish was incredibly professional and Ben stayed in consistent contact in order to update me on details as the day of our tour approached. There are no hidden fees here either, admission to the attractions are included. Our guides for the day, Tri and Gede were a trip, lol. Hilarious and good natured, they make the tour more personable. They also take your pics and upload them to your group whatsapp!Also, huge shout out to Tri and Gede as we had one person in our party who couldnt walk a lot and couldnt walk up to the temple and they accommodated her limitations brilliantly and got her to the top on a scooter which she loved. A few points:The wait times at the Lempuyang Temple are serious business. Choose the 4:30am pick up. Bring patience, an easy going disposition and plenty of money to buy food to eat while you wait. The pictures are well worth the wait, I promise.Its also chilly up there in the morning so dont forget your jacket.Bring your own baby wipes to wash your hands and your own tissues for the bathroom. They either dont have toilet paper in the water closet at the temple or the charge 5k Rp for it. Lunch is delicious and included with your tour but you do have to pay for drinks and they only take cash, so keep that in mind. The coffee plantation is pretty cool and theyre hilarious. Take full advantage of the free taste testing of their coffee and teas. Yuuuum.When you get on the swing, give the operators your phone and if you have an iphone instruct them to take regular photos, video and slow motion. The most dramatic, coolest captures we have were the ones they took in slow motion. Honestly, this is the tour to take while youre in Bali in my opinion. Its exactly what it say it isan IG tour. You get to see amazing, beautiful country while taking gorgeous pictures.

Booked all our tours with ForeverVacation for me and my girlfriend and everything was amazing! Our guide, Beni was so friendly and made us laugj thr entire time. Also, learned a lot ablut the locsl culture and he helped take some grwat photos.All of the tours were private and all-inclusive so that was a huge bonus. Ben and Janie helped to orhamize everything perfectly and were so friendly and professional.If i could give 10 stars i would. Best experience ever!!

This was an absolutely beautiful experience for us. Aji, our guide, was so lovely, showing us through his village and introducing us to his family. We met his mom and some of the children, and it was so heartwarming to see their lives up close. Loved everything about the day. Thank you, Aji!

Hey allFirst time solo traveling to Asia and i chose Bali for my eat, pray, and love myself adventure but i was most glad to have done it with forever vacation. So right before my trip i was set up with communication on WhatsApp with the owners of the company Ben and Janie to confirm reservation and location of pick up hotel. Then i found out that snorkeling to Nusa Penida was not the only thing they do, i set myself up to do all 5 of my tours with them. FYI they do charge $30 extra per tour if you are solo like me but i didnt mind cause if you compare costs with other tours it was comparable or better to go with forever vacation Bali especially if it is a solo experience cause of the VIP treatment you get. for every single tour i felt i was accommodated in every way. Also since the tours were the basic highlights of doing things in Bali it is totally worth. But if you want a relaxed vacation, dont do what i did. Just do 1-2 tours. I went overboard cause I wanted to see everything. I was exhausted after but it was very good for me & my pictures came out great! FYI i would say the tour guides dont explain like normal tour guides do but if you ask the right questions and they guide you to see what you need to see, you get the experience you want. Just read up on wiki on the location so you understand the significance of each location. Tours i did:Day 1- Monkey forest tour which i had specially made them take me to Tirta empul - a must see if you want learn and search for a spiritual component to your trip Day 2 - snorkeling in Nusa Penida- it was raining that day but cant blame forever vacation... it was rainy season still. Best thing is they set me up with another solo traveler so i wasnt alone. But i can say they i did see a sea turtle and i let the rain be my cathartic shower in a way ... funny how i used to hate rain but in Bali it was much appreciated due to how hot it was lolDay 3 - food tour ... will say it wasnt how i pictured eating in my food tour as it is not really focused on Balinese food. It was geared toward taking instagramable pictures in really cool look places with good food but i prefered eating Balinese/ Indonesian food. the pink coffee was cool and i made them switch out dinner spot with a different location. I did pay extra on the food cause i wanted specific dishes but you dont have to do what i did ... plus tasting things shouldnt cost a serious amount of money or go over the budget they provided Day 4 instagram tour - my favorite tour next to day 1... i will say i enjoyed it cause they again set me up with another solo traveler and we had a blast. Loved Tirta Gangga and lempuyang. Tour guide will stand in line for you so you can enjoy the wait for that Instagram picture in Lempuyang. I will say you guys should go on a week day cause on a weekend the wait was much longer. Waterfalls were refreshing and beautiful. Day 5 spa day and Tanah Lot... drove me to the beautiful location of Tanah Lot. I would read up on it yourself and then go. The spa was very good and relaxing before they dropped me off at the airport.
