Eno took special care to take our pictures at all the scenic viewpoints. In spite of the bad roads, his driving was excellent and needs special mention. The boat trip to Nusa Penida was in a public fast ferry where passengers were crammed together tightly and was the least enjoyable part of the whole trip - however this was not under the control of the tour company. Overall, highly recommended trip!”
