Delighted - When I first booked in the tour, I was confused and scared about how it is going to be. A new country and whole new culture and experiences. But when I first met Hendy, I got so comfortable and safe with him. I was delighted with his service. He is always willing to help. I must mention his photography skills. Those were out of this world. Me and my wife enjoyed a lot.

Great snorkeling! - Great trip today! Everything was was great. Agus picked us up early at our hotel. He was so kind and informative. Very attentive to what we wanted to do. We didn’t get to see a Manta Ray. But that’s ok. There rays just don’t come out today. We went snorkeling and saw amazing reefs and so many fish. We did get to see a turtle. The beach club was such a nice way to end the day. Anything we didn’t like had nothing to do with the tour. Bali has a lot of tourists. And unfortunately many of the tourists are rude and have no issue leaving trash around. But the company and Agus made it a great experience. Highly recommend.

Super Exparing Gehad - We went snorkeling and it was wonderful! The guide was snorkeling with us and showing us cool stuff! We dodn’t see a Manta at the first stop but the guide and boat captain kept looking and we ended up finding a stop where we did see a Manta! There were 4 stops (+ 1 extra stop for manta) in just under three hours. Very much reccomend! Very Great Eka, Nyana and Aprio ❤

Once-in-a-lifetime Snorkeling Experience - This was the most incredible snorkeling experience I have been on! We were so lucky and got to see a manta ray the second we got in the water. We also saw sea turtles, fish and lots of beautiful coral. Our three guides, Alus, Eka and Darma were very helpful and friendly. They were flexible with us all day and gave us options depending on our activity level and specific interests. The fast ferry is very clean and efficient, although don’t forget your Dramamine! The local lunch was very delicious and perfect for after a long morning of snorkeling. The menu of options was varied and included both western familiar foods and Balinese cuisine. Dharma drove us around the island and took great pictures of us at the cliffs and let us feed some peanuts to some adorable monkeys. Eka took amazing underwater high-resolution photos and videos of us and shared them promptly. They were flexible with less-experienced swimmers and the equipment provided worked perfectly (flippers, snorkel and mask). We recommend this tour!

Nusa Penida must do excursion - This was our first experience with Forever Vacation. And I must say: impressed. We adjusted the standard tour and this was no problem for the team. Our pickup was @Ubud and we ended our tour at our hotel on Nisa Penida. Communication was swift and clear. This morning at 5:30 we were picked up by our driver Feri. As a local Balinese Feri explained a lot on the way of living @Bali. Feri picked us up right before the busy gathering. So we had time for some breakfast at Sanur port before entering the fast ferry Then @Nusa Penida Sujana was ready to meet and greet us. As we are staying longer we could put all our travelbags already in the car before we went on our morning snorkeling trip. Very handy thinking by Sujana. On the snorkeling trip we were with Boneng aka the Boneng group. We went looking for Manta’s, but we couldn’t spot them. We did however spotted 2 groups of dolfins, swim with the coral & fish and swim with turtles. Very, very nice. Boneng used it’s GoPro in the water, synced it directly in the boat and airdropped it into you iPhone. So, when you start the second part of the trip, you already have you morning pictures. The midday we filled with excursion to Klingking and Chrystal Bay. You need a good driver here in Nusa Penida and Sujana did an excellent job. Also Sujana explained a lot on Nusa Penida as he was born there. Very much appreciated. All in all a very good organized excision. Would really consider ForeverVacation again. Very, very well organized leaving no surprises.

Fantastic tour - The morning started with being collected from my hotel in Nusa Dua by Exbi. Having been in a tour earlier in the week with Exbi, it was like meeting an old friend. Off to the Port to catch the ferry over it Nusa Penida. A nice Pandan cake was supplied for the trip. Upon arrival I was Meet by my Island guide, Widianaa, and checked what itinerary I wanted to do in the afternoon. Onto the boat for the snorkelling in the capable hands of Eka. We were lucky to see a Manta Ray, Turtles and plenty of marine fish. Back to port and back with Widianaa. First stop, lunch. No issues with lunch. Just what you need. Then onto Kelingking Cliff, Broken Cliff and Angel’s Billabong. As only just me on the tour, we finished sharp and on way back to port, Widianaa was able to get me on an earlier ferry to the mainland. 😁 I would certainly recommend Forever Vacation Bali as this tour was well organised and staff are great.

Happy dizzy tour! - I think I didn't even take 1 photo to record this trip. The Staff is friendly, however, the day we go is a bit cluody and not have much sunshine also. But the tour guide did not advise to change to another day or snorkeling venue. And then, the fast boat is super bumphy and the the sea is super wavy, I vomit 2 times in the boat (but took dizzy pills already before the trip, see how wavy sea that day) And When we getting to the first drop off point, Manta point, the sea is just too wavy and I can't even do snorkeling. It's ok to diving but not snorkeling I must say! (This is a snorkeling tour)! Ok, after those few points, we have lunch in a restaurant in the hill. Nice view but just tooooo manyyy spiders and flies!!! So ummmm, this tour good or not, you can judge by yourself.
