Our Bali Humble Driver - Mr Agoes

We were hired a driver cum tour guide during our Bali's trip. I found this information from the Tripadvisor.com. The person I contacted was Mr Agung Wijaya, and we decided to choose him because of the speedy respond through email and VERY reasonable charges.

I decided to blog about this because this was our last day at Bali and the driver (Mr Agoes) who made our Wonderful Trip will not pick us tomorrow to airport. It will be replace by another driver because he gonna drive another group of visitors tomorrow...

When we reached the Ngurah Rai International Airport of Bali (Day1), Mr Agoes (assigned by Mr Agung Wijaya) had waiting for us at the arrival hall. I found this guy was friendly and humble! His friendly smile is always on his face! Great!

During our 5 days 4 nights Bali's trip, he was really helpful on our request, all of us believe he made our Pleasant Holiday! Yes, without this responsible driver...we might not really enjoy the whole trip! He was very puncture on every morning during the pickup at our resort, not even late for 1 minute!

Along the journey, he was knowledgeable to explained about the history of the places we visited and walked with our group. Especially during our visit to Uluwatu Temple, he was holding the tree branch to protect us from the naughty monkeys and he even carried the 2 children who were too tired to walked back! The children Like him very much! He was GREAT!

Mr Agoes and the Suzuki APV

I was regretted that I didn't take the handsome photo of Mr Agung Wijaya...! :(

I will STRONGLY recommend this driver to all my friends who intend to visit Bali! You will never regret! So, please contact the boss - Mr Agung Wijaya now if you are going to have a vacation at Bali Island!

Lia Cafe Seafood Restaurant at Jimbaran Bay, Bali

Lia Cafe (S8 46.218 E115 10.128) at Jimbaran Bay is a Balinese Seafood Restaurant in Bali. We chose this restaurant was because of the Good reviews from the internet. Our driver - Mr Agoes not sure about the restaurant location initially, so I asked him to follow our GPS device. :)

There was a row of seafood restaurant beside the beach, Lia Cafe is the second shop at the end of the row. This was another Best Dining experience we had in Bali. The tables are all arranged on the beach, moonlight on the sea and accompany with a small Un-Plug band! The planes was continuously landing at the Ngurah Rai International Airport, one of the busy airport. You may catch the beautiful sunset over here if you come before 6pm.

Dining on the beach - Jimbaran Bay

We ordered the first package of rp.380,000 which came with lobsters, crabs, prawns, clams and 2 bottles of Bintang Beer. Second package was rp.800,000 which came with lobsters, crabs, fish, clams and A bottle of Red Wine.

The Beer and the Red wine were served first, follow by the Balinese Seafood Cuisines...about 15 minutes, that was fast enough!

Candles on our table with the alcohol drinks

Every table will only have a candle light, which was romantic enough? But I felt a little bit dark...

The first package of Balinese Seafood

The second package of Balinese Seafood

I was a bit late...everyone was Hungry! Haha!

All of us really enjoy the Balinese seafood! It was tasty and Yummy! I like the gravy! We took more than 2 hours to enjoy the seaside environment! It was a 'Fantastic' dinner! The only comments were the crabs were not as big as Johor. Some of my friend said the Jimbaran Bay seafood was not good, maybe they haven't try the cuisine from Lia Cafe.

The Damage : rp.1,360,000 (MYR493.00 / USD 147.00) for 6 adults and 2 children included extra 2 bottles of Bintang Beer. That was about MYR80.00 per person. It was reasonable because of the Beer and Wine.

Rated : 4.8/5

We will MISS you!

Pura Luhur Uluwatu (Temple) at South Bali, Indonesia

Uluwatu Temple (S8 49.762 E115 05.185) at South Bali Island is One of the Must Visit Tourist Attraction in Bali. The temple is located just right at the Sharp Plateau of Bukit Peninsula of Bali.

Once you pay the entrance fee, you will be given the 'Sarong' or a 'Waist String'. To respect to the Holy Temple.

The Sarong

Caution : You are advise NOT to bring any snacks and keep all the sun glasses, hair clip in you bag or keep in the car. Take extra care of your Compact Camera! Because beside the famous temple, the area also Famous with Naughty Monkeys!

 

The monkeys spotted once you step into the entrance

There are pathway and staircases to climb before you reach the Temple. Children are advise not to run within the area.

The Kecak Dance performing platform

About 5-10 minutes walked, we reached the Famous Uluwatu Temple of Bali.

The Uluwatu Temple of Bali

"Pura Luhur Uluwatu is one of Bali's kayangan jagat (directional temples) and guards Bali from evil spirits from the SW, in which dwell major deities, in Uluwatu's case; Bhatara Rudra, God of the elements and of cosmic force majeures. Bali's most spectacular temples located high on a cliff top at the edge of a plateau 250 feet above the waves of the Indian Ocean. Uluwatu lies at the southern tip of Bali in Badung Regency. Dedicated to the spirits of the sea, the famous Pura Luhur Uluwatu temple is an architectural wonder in black coral rock, beautifully designed with spectacular views. This is a popular place to enjoy the sunset. Famous not only for its unique position, Uluwatu also boasts one of the oldest temples in Bali, Pura Uluwatu. Most of Bali's regencies have Pura Luhur (literally high temples or ascension temples) which become the focus for massive pilgrimages during three or five day odalan anniversaries. The photogenic Tanah Lot and the Bat Cave temple, Goa Lawah, is also Pura Luhur. Not all Pura Luhur are on the coast, however but all have inspiring locations, overlooking large bodies of water." Source from Uluwatu Temple Tourism.

On the right side, we were impressed by this Breathtaking view of the cliff!

Breathtaking view from Uluwatu Temple

"Pura Uluwatu is located on the cliff top close to the famous surf break on the SW of the Bukit peninsula. Empu Kuturan, a Javanese Hindu priest who built the tiered meru, founded the temple in the 10th century and a shrine here as well as at other key locations longs the Balinese coast."

You be able to walk till the end of the cliff but we did not, because we need to protect the kids from the monkeys! :) (Advise not to leave the kids alone in the temple area)

I took some portraits of the Famous Naughty Monkeys

We witnessed the monkeys continuous trying their best to grab the stuffs from tourists, especially from the ladies! Beware! I did captured one of them holding the hair clip from one of the Japanese tourist!

The monkey's hand was holding the clip which grabbed from the tourist

Our driver - Mr Agoes was Kind enough by holding a tree branch and standing beside us! He said, once you hold something on your hand, the monkeys Dare Not get close to you. Haha! That was a Great experience!

We spent more than an hour within the temple because of waiting for the beautiful sunset. But the weather was Not on our side again! It was same as the Tanah Lot sunset! The Red Ball was covered by thick clouds! What A luck

And so did the monkeys and the sunset!

Tourist, monkeys and the sunset - Uluwatu Temple

We left the place after dark, during that time...the Famous Kecak Dance show has began...we gave it a miss because we were planned & heading to our dinner at Jimbaran Bay! :)

Bye! Uluwatu Temple of Bali

Garuda Wisnu Kencana at Bukit Peninsula of Bali, Indonesia

Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park (S8 48.541 E115 10.043) located about 12KM South bound from Bali Caollection Nusa Dua. The entrance fee was rp.50,000 per person. (Which was the highest entrance fee among the tourist attraction in Bali)

"Mandala Garuda Wisnu Kencana, or Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK) is a private cultural park on the Bukit Peninsula at the southern end of the island of Bali in Indonesia. Bukit is a limestone plateau with Uluwatu to the west and Nusa Dua  to the eastern.

It is devoted to the Hindu god Vishnu, and his mount, Garuda, the mythical bird who is his companion.

Currently, the statue of Vishnu is 23 m high, although the original plan was for a 146 meter gold plated Vishnu riding Garuda on top of an 11 storey entertainment complex. The idea was not without controversy, and religious authorities on the island complained that its massive size might disrupt the spiritual balance of the island, and that its commercial nature was inappropriate." Source from Wiki.

Limestone surrounded the Cultural Park

The Flying Fox activity also available over here. After the main entrance, we walked pass the lime stone and a huge statue of bird appear on our left! That was the Mythical bird - Garuda Statue.

The Garuda Mythical Bird statue, which was the companion of The Hindu God - Wisnu

"The statue and its pedestal will be surrounded by more than 240 hectares cultural park which was once an abandoned and unproductive limestone quarry." Source from Here.

Garuda - The Mythical Bird. It was made from tons of copper and brass

This was really a good photography spot. The weather was cooling in the Cultural Park even the sun was direct shine on us, I believe it's gotta do with the Huge Limestone surrounded.
On the left on the Garuda, we continued to climb up the staircase and reached the other Huge statue - The Hindu God Wisnu.

"Designed and built by Nyoman Nuarta, one of Indonesia’s foremost modern sculptor, the Garuda Wisnu Kencana statue or GWK and its pedestal building will be standing 150 meters tall with its wings span 64 meters across. Made from more than 4000 tons of copper and brass, the statue is picturing Lord Wisnu, as the source of wisdom, riding on the back of the mythical bird Garuda as the manifestation of conscience toward Amerta, the perennial goodness." Source from Here.

From this Giant copper and brass statue, you can see the Jimbaran Bay from far....yeah, the place we gonna have our seafood dinner tonight.

There were many souvenir shops in the Cultural Park, and some Cultural Dance which I miss it! Because once I step into the last souvenir shop, I was not able to come back to the performing stage! Oh! What a Miss!

My purpose to this Cultural Park was about photograph. It took an hour for me to finished shooting...And this was also my first time to taste the Indonesia Famous Sosro Tea - Teh Botol. It serve in the bottle and taste like normal tea without milk.

Bali Collection at Nusa Dua, Bali

We visited one of the Souvenirs Center at Denpasar to buy some souvenirs for friends. And I learn the words 'Oleh-oleh' in Indonesian mean 'Souvenir'. :)
Then follow by this Bali Collection Shopping area (S8 48.092 E115 13.748) at Nusa Dua, Bali. The Nusa Dua area was Totally different from others place within Bali, nice, clean road and different class. Yes, prepare for the high price! :)

By entering Nusa Dua, our car had check by the securities and scan with the metal detector! Tight security!

Security check at Nusa Dua, Bali

Most of the Luxury Hotels and Resorts are located in Nusa Dua, Bali. No wonder the area was Clean and with the very strict securities and ensure all the visitors safety.

"Bali Collection Nusa Dua is the shopping complex set up for the many resorts that are located in the area. With the Grand Hyatt Bali to the south, the Melia Bali Sol to the north and the twin ‘islands’ of Nusa Dua only 400 meters to the east, the complex is easy to find. Nusa Dua itself feels like Beverly Hills, with manicured lawns, sprawling properties and a distinct lack of anything local. The Bali Collection has the feel of an outdoor mall in California, complete with small restaurants with outdoor dining, palm trees and a tranquil vibe." Source from Here.

The Bali Collection Nusa Dua was a bit special to us, because it's Not a Complex. It was actually many shops and restaurants gather in a same protected area. As you can see from the photos below...

But the weather was killing! I believe it would be different if we visit it during night time...
We popped into a Handicraft Center called The Art Market Of Bali Collection.

Well, most of the handicraft in the Art Market were familiar, which we saw most of them at other souvenirs shop. But...the prices surprised us! It cost about 3-4 times higher with the same item we saw from other market! This called 'High Class Handicraft'?! :) Doesn't matter, I'm not gonna buy it.

Beside all the Branded apparel shop and restaurant, there were nothing much attraction...

The roof design of every shops

The Recycle Area

PLEASE take note of the praying stuff on the floor and every door of the shops, Don't step on it!

Hanged around the area for about an hour, we continue to our next destination - Garuda Wisnu Kencana of Bali.
