Made is super kind, smart,very proffesional driver in Bali. He made our best trip.. we spent
one week together
we had so much fun with him. honestly he is... read more the best of best driver for us ever! I cannot wait to come back in Bali soon.. Highly recommend to
everyone who want to enjoy the holidays in Bali!
October 31, 2022I found Made's profile through alot of google searching. He is a brilliant driver, he is safe and understands Balinese traffic very well, you will see mopeds coming... read more at you from every direction, driving in Bali is not for the faint hearted so do consider booking a driver for a day or more, if you do please book Made.
Made is incredibly responsive and is really knowledgeable. We booked him for two full days, it is easy to look at the distances involved and think the journey will be quick and easy. Quick NO, easy YES thanks to his driving skills.
Made found beautiful routes to take us on and we enjoyed the journey almost more than some of the places we visited. He was very quick to identify good places to stop for a photograph of a beautiful view. His English is very good so both communication before and on the day were very easy. He gave us a fantastic recommendation for lunch on the second day (Lereng Agung restaurant) which you could have missed completely but he knew the view on the other side would take our breath away.
He took photographs and videos also for us. He even added in a recommendation of the orchid gardens when he realised that it would be of interest to us.
Bali has suffered as a result of the pandemic. PLEASE return to Bali and if you want to book a driver please book Made Sudarsana he will guarantee you great days out in his very clean and modern car.
Thank you Made for being an important part of our holiday to Bali.

My partner Willie and I had the pleasure of travelling with Made on three occasions during our two weeks in Bali. I’ve driven with Made when I travelled to Bali... read more with my parents in 2015- he was a gentleman then as well.
Made can also make good recommendations on the must see locations in Bali. On two occasions, Made called and made reservations for us at a gorgeous spot in Ubud and also in Tanalot.
I can not recommend highly enough- and one more thing- you must tip this man. At least 200K Rupiah (20$ NZD) if not more above his fee. He really does go above and beyond and his car is brand new with air conditioning which is nice on the long hot car- rides. Tarima kash, Made!
November 2, 2019Made Sudarsana made our one-week Bali vacation the best ever. Made (Ma-Day) is a gentle man with a pleasant sense of humor, great English, quietly competent, knowledgeable about all things... read more Bali, and a massively good driver (which is a necessity on Bali's streets where dogs and people and cars weave in and out, like some kind of continuous dance where everything looks like it should crash together, but never does).
Our family of 5 from the US booked Made in advance to drive us for 3 days of our 7-day visit, and we ended up booking him for one more day. He picked us up at our Ubud hotel, and we felt instantly taken care of. He's easy to reach (directly via his website madebalidriver, which is what I did) or you can google him. Or you might be able to book him here on TripAdvisor. Like most people in Bali, he uses Whatsapp for direct communication, so you can also reach him that way once you get his phone number from his site. Just say, "Are you available to drive us XYZ days?" and he'll let you know, and give you a price.
Made always went above and beyond, like finding the remote airbnb (really an international hostel) that we had pre-booked in Sidemen (it was fabulous), accompanying us down the steep steps of tukad cepung waterfall, and allowing us to store our luggage in his car all day while we hung at the beach in Kuta. He outfitted us properly for our tour of Besakih temple, and explained anything we asked about. He joined us for some activities, and other times just did his own thing while we played.
