    Great Tour in Bali

    My guide Rukun was excellent- I give him 5 Stars! He helped me to find some items that I wanted to buy. He is a great driver and very friendly and speaks good English. I couldn’t do the whole tour so he customized it to my needs. Thank you!

    No show for this tour

    Tour Operator was a no show! Had been trying to contact for 2 days prior. No communication from them. Not even local phone number or meeting place advised. Do not use this operator. Very disappointing!

    Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tanjung Benoa.

    How much does Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions cost?

    +

    Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tanjung Benoa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tanjung Benoa is not rushed.

    Is Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tanjung Benoa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tanjung Benoa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tanjung Benoa and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tanjung Benoa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Tanjung Benoa?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Tanjung Benoa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Discover The Best of Ubud: All-Inclusive and Private Guided Tour, Ubud Private Tour: Waterfalls, Temple and Rice Terraces Swing, All Inclusive : Bali Blue Lagoon Snorkeling, Lunch, and Transport. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Tanjung Benoa?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Tanjung Benoa?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions?

    +

    Included: Private tour; English speaking driver; Surcharges on fuel; Hotel/port pickup and drop-off; and Transport by private vehicle. Not included: Food and drinks; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Tanjung Benoa. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    +

    Is Best of Bali Private Shore Excursions wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
