QUOTE(april @ Nov 26 2008, 01:39 PM) 1. does wayan charge according to hour?let say for half day, will include how many hours? because i ask jhony, he reply half day is for 6 hrs only. what do you mean you stay at ubud? youre gonna stay there overnight? hm... thats what I planned to do also. I guess its just dropping you in ubud on the way back from where ever you go? 2. for jhony, if full day tour is 10hr. so after that, wat can we do? if i stay at ubud.  |

QUOTE(lonewolf @ Dec 2 2008, 10:34 AM) taste like Teh-O mar...not bad actually. talking about temple in the west, i think those monkeys in uluwatu are train to steal stuff from tourist. Yeah it taste like Teh o.. and yes, the monkeys are trained. You'll see some guy coming whenever one of the monkeys grab something from tourist. He'll be the one to get your things back from the monkeys and in return for some $$.But it doesnt always work out for them I think, I saw one of the tourist's DCam got thrown down the cliff by one of the monkeys....

QUOTE(Joshua_0718 @ Dec 1 2008, 06:00 PM) We planned to skip the 'feed the monkeys' already. Sunrise? I think you could only actually see sunset over there. Uluwatu(monkeys) or Tanah lot. And it does get dark quite early over there.  Btw, we would like to go to the temple to see the sunrise, appropriate time to go and where is the place? Any further advise? Besakih, noted! |

QUOTE(Joshua_0718 @ Dec 2 2008, 11:07 AM) Talking about dark, it is really dark? I mean no lights over there? what I meant was that, sunrise comes early and dark/night comes early as well. Here in bolehland, the sky only gets dark sometime around 7? or 8?. Over in Bali, it gets dark earlier, mayb 6?what kind of dark were you thinking of? |

yep, to me, Uluwatu is a must compared to kintamani, the drive up to kintamani is just too long.
Havent been to besakih though, plan to go for a look see in my coming trip. Is the guide over there really as bad as everyone says so? a lot of people commented on how much the guide's in besakih wanna CEKIK money from us.. This post has been edited by jojo_g2: Dec 2 2008, 11:47 AM |

QUOTE(Joshua_0718 @ Dec 2 2008, 11:44 AM) How long??? 2 - 3 hours i think. nothing to do.. sit in the car till we zzz.... and the view up there is really great. but.. buffet is cold. I guess for first timers, it's a must. Just so, you'll see the volcanic crater and all.. Anyway, it's like I said, if given a choice, I'd prefer uluwatu. The cliff's are simply amazing, just watch out for the monkeys. |

QUOTE(kucingfight @ Dec 2 2008, 11:49 AM) HOw' ur tour like? Self DIY and book a driver? or follow a proper tour group kind of thing? kucingfight, a question, where do you get driver + car? after you touched down? or.. booked thru wayan and etc first?I personally find it more fun/flexible to book a driver and get him to drive us around and about the usual 300k rp per day tours? do they cover entrance fee? and the food? the last time I was there, it was all covered, dint have to pay a single sen.. just tip our drivers and guide only. so, im kinda curious if we have to pay for those entrance fee and etc.. in my coming trip. |

QUOTE(kucingfight @ Dec 2 2008, 11:59 AM) Bedugul / Tanah Lot = definitely muz go. 'floating' temple @ bedugul and sunset scenery @ tanah lot (again make sure u reach there while it's still bright, gets dark pretty fast, so u wouldnt want to miss the sunset view) yea, some places like tanah lot can go at different times, morning while the waves are huge and strong, and afternoon when the sun's setting and the small island temple is accessible cuz the tide is low by then.mm what else ah, rupiah is cheap now, around rm2.95 = RP 10K. |

QUOTE(fat_returns @ Dec 9 2008, 10:46 AM) Thanks joshua on the petrol info. definitely smaller. The routes the guides take you.. is amazing. Super small and narrow... I'm deciding between staying in Ubud or staying in Kuta. Does travelling from: 1. Ubud - Mt Batur- Besakih take less time compared to Kuta - Mt Batur - Besakih ? 2 . Ubud-Bedugul take less time compared to Kuta-Bedugul? From the map Ubud is definitely closer to both places, but the roads look more like small mountain roads.. The roads from Kuta-Batur and Kuta-Bedugul looks like bigger roads... so not sure if the distance on the map corresponds with travelling time... By the way, are the roads around Ubud like the roads we have around Frasers Hills & Camerons? as for the time for you to get to mt batur and etc.. from ubud, yea, i think you'll get to those places from ubud much more faster. but it all depends on where you wanna go really, if you wanna go for some night life.. you'll have to stay kuta. if you want the peaceful nature kinda life, I guess you'll have to go for ubud. but hey, if ubud is a bit too quiet for you and kuta too loud, why not try legian? i think it's a bit more quiet and if you want the night life, its still within walking distance.  |

QUOTE(ketan57 @ Dec 9 2008, 02:56 PM) I just wonder why most of u never thought of staying in lake batur.its a real different experience just out of quiriousity, how did you get up to mt batur and come back? i mean, did your driver stay up there with you? or you hire a taxi to send you all the way up there and back the next day?with the cool wheather and nice scenery, and also experience the daily life of the local ppl. they so friendly and helpful. last mth i spent a night in the Lakeside Cottages in Toya Bungkah, the hotel is just besides the lake batur, behind it is the closer view of the mt.batur.the room rate is btw us12/= - us28/= the room rate for a deluxe lake side bungalow is just us28/= u can log on to see the photo of the lakeside cottages http://picasaweb.google.com/shuhern96 |
