This time the tour was a round trip to the island started from ubud area and then we when to visit the eastern part of Bali candidasa and stay a night there at
Alila Manggis near candidasa. The first trip in candidasa was visiting the traditional tenganan village used to be a hidden village and closed for any contact with outside world. We went to visit the traditional way of garment making. The coloring agents used for their cloth are made of wood extract and measure in traditional way.

We spent 1 and half hours in the location only, since that was a Bali round trip they spend as much time as they like in every stop and enjoy the nature and culture more than regular tour package, therefore they get to know more about things in the location. The decided to have an early lunch around candidasa, I suggested them to try the lunch at rama candidasa restaurant, which is a nice place have lunch with a great ocean view in the east of Bali. I also suggested by a friend of mind who ever tried lunch there and they the food was good and because they have a new chef with a new menu and better presentation.

Then we continued the trip passing through the east coast to enter the north Bali and made a stop at tirtha gangga the ancient king of karangasem bathing place. We also stop at singaraja city, used to be the capital of Bali in the colonial era. The next day we went to menjangan island the place where they requested to visit for them to dive there. The visit to Menjangan Island was not on the itinerary and they requested it and stay another in Bali.

It has been quite sometimes I’ve never gone to menjangan island since the slower season in Bali in couple years, and nice view all the way to menjangan island and at pemuteran made our trip was one of the great time to remember and we saw green every where. Ten minutes by boat also a great trip and they spend 4 hours there diving. A nice views all the way leaving Menjangan Island and passing through the West Bali National Park. One of them requested to stop but the others said no, and we continued the trip down the southern part Bali. During the trip they were talking about the next visit to Bali will spend some times to enter the west park and stay longer in Bali.

We were supposed to go back to the hotel and for them to rest after all day out and I started to talk about tanah lot temple to them, a nice place to see sunset and the temple protrude right on the beach and has been standing there for many centuries. All of them said, we have to see that place. I took them to visit tanah lot temple and escorted them to see the wave beaten rock and the best spot to see sunset.

They really appreciated the hour extra I spent with them to see the most beautiful sunset they have ever seen in life and they kept on talking about the temple.

I took them to hotel in Kuta and they checked in at the hotel. They spent all morning and day on the beach the next day before I picked them up and transferred them to the airport.
