I can’t thank Yuqqa enough for organizing such an incredible trip to Bali! From the lush jungles of Ubud to the serene beaches of Sanur, every detail was perfectly arranged.

She listened to my preferences and curated an itinerary that balanced adventure, relaxation, and cultural experiences. The accommodations were fantastic, transportation was seamless, and their local recommendations made the trip unforgettable.

What stood out the most was her responsiveness and professionalism—anytime I had a question or needed adjustments, they were quick to assist. Thanks to them, I experienced Bali stress-free and made memories that will last a lifetime.

If you’re planning a trip to Bali, I highly recommend Yuqqa. She truly went above and beyond!

Hiking Komodo island with a private guide right as the park opened allowed us to beat the big tourist groups and see eight dragons! We snorkeled with 6 ft manta rays and watched thousands of bats leave 'Bat Island' at sunset. Tony was an excellent guide and the crew on our private boat shepherded us safely from island to island as well as fed us well! In Bali, our driver Tut was the best. He patiently and safely drove us to our many adventures - white water rafting, Mt. Batu hike, hot springs, coffee plantation, beaches. Our one day convertible VW safari with Putu exploring the temples and waterfalls around Ubud was a fun way to see the area. KimKim was easy to work with, exceeded our expectations and provided great value for the money. We are traveling to Singapore for business this spring and plan to use thier services to plan a side trip to Borneo!

The drivers were Yadi and Very. Both were very nice, pleasant and excellent drivers. They took us to the most interesting places.

We enjoyed learning about the Indonesian culture, their religion, how they live, what they like to eat, how they travel. We learned about the Indonesian history, we saw their rice-, tea- and coffee plantations. We learned about Batik, the Wayang culture. We spent time in the big cities, like Jakarta, Bandoeng, Yogyakarta and Semarang.

Bogor: The Botanical Gardens
Bandoeng: Wayang Golek, Malabar tea plantation
Yogyakarta: Kraton, Making of Wayang puppets, Making of Batik, Prambanan Temple, Gunung Marapi

We first went to see Wayang Golek. This is a must-see for everybody going to Bandung! Then to the Malabar Tea Plantation, see comments below: The guide did not discuss the process of the tea production, but instead showed us the kampung. This could have been an attractive part of the trip but has to be adjusted: more explanation of the tea process, no tour through the kampung.
