As last week Matta fair experience....i think is kinda waste time on there...as far as i seen...their bali package...not much different (free and easy package)..

their flight info is directly get from airasia.com.....and they add another RM20-30 as their own commision....i heard a malay couple terus fired those saleperson cuz of this extra charge on the ticket.....haha...

Sunset at Uluwatu is much more nicer than watching it Dreamland, and also IMO the entrance fee for Dreamland is really not worth it, not to mention you'll have to climb down a sandy and slippery staircase down the cliff to reach the beach, really not recommended for elderly and kids.
If you are interested to see the giant statues of Vishnu and Garuda, can consider going to GWK since it's in the same area, but nothing much to see also beside the 2 giant statues there plus the unique limestone mining area.

Skip Pacung if possible, Tegalalang has a much better view.  And also never ever go for the buffet lunch there at Pacung, which is super expensive and tasted awful, not to mention not very hygienic too.

hey bro thks for the advise....pacung buffer u is expensive..then how about go to the strawberry stop(not sure the location yet) plz advise bro...

Hey stimix,

Thanks again for the reply. Masa Inn is budget hotel la, Rp250000 per nite for 3 persons including breakfast. www.masainn.com.

In this case I think I should follow ur advice, cuz I realize that Kintamani is more 'recommended' than the white water rafting.

BTW, where is GOA LAWAH located? What to see there ar??
*
i actually stay at massa inn during my visit to bali tis november...its not "beside" hardrock....but its actually located in poppies lane I...have to walk around 5min to reach the beach....its quite nice and clean inn i must say....just the breakfast...its quite "impossible" to fill up ur stomach......tongue.gif

but not to worry....mcD just near by...enjoy ur stay mate.

QUOTE(clausman @ Dec 18 2007, 04:21 PM)

I tried some drivers and their price is RP 400k full day and RP 250k half day.
I going end of Dec07.
