Highly recommend Wena! We had an excellent day exploring East Bali with Wena. We were picked up from our hotel in Sanur and visited the Gate of Heaven, Tirta Gangga Water Palace, and a stunning viewpoint. Before we set off, Wena gave us great advice on the best timings and route, which helped us avoid some of the crowds and made the day run really smoothly. Wena is a fantastic driver - safe, professional, patient, and incredibly polite. His English is excellent, so chatting throughout the day was easy, and he was always happy to answer our questions and share information about Bali. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. Wena also took lovely photos of us experiencing these sites. If you're looking for a reliable, knowledgeable driver who genuinely wants you to have the best possible experience, we can't recommend Wena highly enough. We are going to book another day with Wena to visit another part of the island.
