Experience the best of
Bali with Withlocals

"This was truly different to any tour I’ve done before. Getting the chance to not just learn about Balinese culture, but to experience it first hand was truly exceptional and difficult to describe. Komang was absolutely wonderful and guided me through each step of the way, helping me to really connect to myself and the surroundings, something that was both peaceful and deeply energising at the same time. "

"A great opportunity to experience a beautiful nature spot combined with an insight into the spiritual world of Bali! Go with an open heart (and some flip flops) and let the magic happen 🙂"

"My spiritual journey with Komang was truly enlightening. This experience provided clarity on many spiritual questions I had been seeking answers to for a long time. The visit to the ancient temple was deeply moving—it radiated incredible energy, making the entire experience even more special. Komang’s guidance was invaluable, and he introduced me to a simple yet powerful meditation technique. If you’re looking for a meaningful and authentic spiritual gateway, I highly recommend this tour!"

" This tour exceeded all our expectations! My partner and I had an amazing time immersing ourselves in Balinese spirituality and nature. Mangku Komang, our guide welcomed us warmly and led us on a journey that was mindful and beautiful. The day included a walk through the jungle to a breathtaking waterfall. The sounds of nature and the tranquility of the setting made it the perfect place to pause, reflect, and meditate. Great way to escape the crowds and see something more authentic and beautiful. "

"This experience is not your usual tourist destination. It was minding blowing. The ultimate cultural and spiritual journey. No tourists, only locals. You will not regret booking this. The best experience in my three week trip!!!!"

"We wanted to learn about Balinese culture and religion but after all we learned a lot about ourselves! This tour with Komang (Mangku is his title as a priest) was not only well organised but also a calm, hustle free dive into spirituality. Komang is a very charismatic, highly intelligent and empathetic man and the perfect guide into the Balinese ritual of melukat. The place he chose was stunningly beautiful and not crowded at all. Every person at the temple, especially the high priest, who leads the prayers and gives a blessing afterwards was open to foreigners and very welcoming. This tour is not for instagram-shot hunters but for people who want to be allowed to take a glimpse into this particular part of Balinese live. If you come with an open mind and just go with it, you will be highly rewarded! Nevertheless nobody will give you strange looks if you want to take some pictures there as long as this is not the sole purpose of your visit! Highly recommend!"

"The water temple, prayers, spiritual lessons, opportunity to ask questions, meditation — everything was fantastic. Mangku was an exceptional host, very enlightening and interesting. He led us on a beautiful journey and we rate this one of our favorite experiences of all the things we did in a week in Bali. Highly recommend! "

"The setting of this tour (Pura Taman Pecampuhan Sala) is a beautiful and secluded temple in a waterfall canyon, and the ideal location for learning and experiencing a cleansing ritual. We felt thoroughly cleansed, both physically (from light splashes to full immersion) and emotionally/spiritually. Mengku Komang found his calling as a priest (Mengku) some years ago, after a previous professional career. This gives him unique insight and an ability to communicate the intricacies of Balinese spirituality to a foreigner’s understanding. If he takes you on this journey, you will get a much more personal and immersive journey than is offered by the temple priests or other local guides. It is also worth walking around the rice terraces surrounding the parking lot, where the village residents welcomed us warmly. Thank you, Mengku Komang!"

"Mangku Komang is a wonderfull spiritual guide. Next to being a very nice man, he is highly gifted, very sensitive and able to connect in the most powerfull and wonderfull way. For me thi strip has been an inspiration, lesson and blessing and I am very thankfull having been here. Thank you Mangku, we will definitely meet again. "

"I found Id after a long search on the internet. I had heard about Malas before and was really curious about the whole philosophy behind it and how it is used. You can buy a Mala in Bali somewhere but I wanted to create my own. Id was the only one that I found who offered this kind of workshop. It was amazing. Id was so sweet, kind and fun. I was able to choose my own pearls and created the Mala the way I wanted to. Id knows a lot about the Mala and loves to share her wisdom. My Mala turned out beautiful."
