We really had an amazing time doing trekking with those guys ! You will visit the jungle and the temples related to each lake (Buyan & Tembligan) during approximately 3/4 hours, before going on to the incredible twin falls of Wanagiri, really a little piece of heaven ! Finally, we ended the trip with an excellent lunch at our guides HQ, which is a small farm at the Wanagiri village (special mention to the locally grown coffee). Really recommended if you want to dive into balinese culture, they will take the time to answer every question you might have ! You'll get by some places that you have to see if you happen to visit the Munduk locality. We enjoyed a lot the activities and the sympathy of the people organizing it at Wanagiri adventure, money really well spent, thanks again guys !

My friend and I had a fabulous day. We were picked up on time and our guide for the day was Darma. He was fantastic and looked after us well. He was very informative and made sure we were safe on the hike. We had the most delicious lunch after with Kadek and his family. We thoroughly enjoyed this day and well worth every cent. Thank you to Darma and his team.
Our guide is Aguing.He has a very exprienced for hiking and he is a very nice guy.After trekking,we went to a local house have lunch.The lunch is the most delicious when we stayed in Bali.Better than any restaurants. The whole trip is wonderful and we would like to recommend to others.
Agung was a great! Grew up in the area and was passionate about sharing his knowledge and love for the region. Really easy and last minute same day booking, never felt rushed to enjoy the day. Highlights for me include learning about the jungle, the fun canoe ride, authentic lunch and the fresh waterfall swim!! Highly recommended
This was a lovely trip. Our driver Yassa was on time and took us to meet our guide Dharma. He provided his own grown coffee and sticky rice cakes, made by his wife, which we ate over looking the twin lakes. Then off we went for our walk through the forest. As we went Dharma pointed out plants along the way and told us about Balinese traditions with the religious offerings . Eventually we came to lake Tamblingan where there was more coffee and cake before we were rowed across the lake to the temple. From here we went to the waterfall, where you could cool off. Lunch was at a local homestead. The food was very good and we sat talking to the homestead owner, who was very interesting. We made a couple more stops along the way back. We were the only 2 people on the tour. I would highly recommend this tour.
