How much to tip a tour guide in Bali?

ToursByLocals guides set their own prices in order to compensate themselves fairly for the hard work they do and the time spent preparing for the private tour as well as delivering the tour itself. Therefore there is no expectation for ToursByLocals customers to tip their guide. Writing a review after the tour is a great way to show your appreciation to your guide as it helps them receive more inquiries in the future.

Is Bali safe to explore with a guide?

Yes. Exploring with a local guide adds a layer of comfort and awareness, especially in more rural areas or busy urban spots. Your guide knows the customs, how to navigate Bali’s roads, and how to adjust the day based on local conditions or events. They’re there to help things feel easy, not scripted.

Can my guide pick me up at my hotel or villa?

Yes. Bali guides at ToursByLocals offer flexible pickup and drop-off. Message your guide to discuss the location in advance and they’ll coordinate the timing to fit your plans.

Are these tours good for kids, seniors, or multi-generational groups?

Yes. Because every tour is private, your guide can adapt the day for your group. Many Bali guides have experience leading tours for families and multi-generational travellers, so feel free to discuss your needs in advance.
