      Great day!
      I did the tour yesterday with Ariel and Aldo, they were very kind and accommodating. We were a little late but they waited until everyone was there before we started. From start to finish they were very safety oriented, with the safety talk at the start, constantly checking if everyone was okay, and keeping everyone in a tight group out in the water. They allowed the group to pick the itinerary for the day, and took many amazing photos at the lunch spot on the cliff and underwater whilst we were snorkelling. It was a very enjoyable day.

      Would highly recommend
      We went on this tour with family and partners, and the six of us had a great time. Initially, we believed we had booked a private boat tour, as advertised, but upon arrival, we learned it was actually “semi-private”—something we hadn’t been made aware of. Just a heads-up for anyone booking: be sure to clarify the tour type. Despite the mix-up, it turned out fine. We shared the boat with seven other guests who were all lovely. The day was packed with visits to various snorkeling spots and beautiful islands, giving us plenty of opportunities for amazing photos and videos, thanks to Ariel and the team. Ariel was fantastic—he took photos for us and made sure we had an unforgettable experience, despite the initial misunderstanding.

      Unforgettable Snorkeling with a Fun and Talented Team in Nusa Penida
      Incredible Snorkeling Adventure! We had the best time exploring the waters around Nusa Penida with Ariel and Aldo. Ariel was amazing at making sure we felt comfortable and had fun throughout the entire experience—he really went above and beyond to ensure we were enjoying ourselves. Aldo, on the other hand, kept us laughing nonstop with his funny comments and upbeat personality! A tip for anyone visiting: make sure to ask Ariel to take your pictures at the stunning high viewpoint in Nusa Penida. He’s got a real talent for capturing beautiful moments. And when you're out snorkeling, don’t forget to find Aldo—he’s fantastic at snapping the best underwater shots when you're diving into the sea. The combination of the breathtaking underwater world and the hilarious, professional team made this trip unforgettable. Highly recommend it!

      Beautiful lovely experience with best team guide Ariel and Aldo. The beauty of the places we went above and under water is breathtaking, and if you felt tired from snorkelling then relax on the boat roof will nice with all nature scenes around you. Thanks for the Ariel and Aldo for their care and guidance. Extra advice for people new to this, take nausea medicine and do not eat breakfast but take chocolate and salty snack with you.

      Unforgettable Snorkeling Experience!
      Unforgettable Snorkeling Experience! We had an amazing time snorkeling around Nusa Penida! Ariel and Aldo were absolutely fantastic—professional, friendly, and made sure everything went smoothly. The underwater views were breathtaking, with vibrant coral reefs and an abundance of marine life. The team’s attention to detail and their choice of snorkeling spots made the experience even more special. Truly the best team and the best view you could ask for. Highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Nusa Penida

      Best day out in Bali
      Brilliant day out, Ariel and Aldo where excellent tour guides. We seen amazing corals, tropical fish and turtles. The photos taken by the tour guides were so professional and were provided to us at no extra cost. I recommend going to the cliffs, it is an optional part of the trip at lunchtime but the views are breathtaking

      A very well-spent day
      The experience with this visit to Nusa Penida was excellent. The logistics were well-organized, with adequate time allocated for each attraction and flexibility to adjust based on sea conditions and the group’s preferences. The guides, Ariel and Wayan, were highly professional, ensuring the group had a great day in a safe environment, where we managed to see all the expected highlights, including manta rays and turtles.

      Wonderful trip
      Amazing trip! Our tour guide (Ariel) was great at diving and took wonderful underwater videos for us. Even though the water was too choppy and we were unable to visit Manta point (Ariel and the captain would make sure safety first) , we still had a great time at the backup snorkle point. Lunch was exceptional with stunning views over the ocean. Again ariel went out of the way to take amazing photos for us.

      Amazing experience with Ariel as guide
      We recently took a tour with Indo Compass and were lucky to have Ariel as our guide. He was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly helpful. He managed everything seamlessly, ensuring we had the best experience possible. Ariel went above and beyond when I realized I had left my wallet in the car. He kindly lent us the money to buy tickets so we wouldn't miss out on the planned activities. This act of kindness truly saved our day and showed his dedication to his guests. If you're looking for an exceptional tour company and a guide who genuinely cares about your experience, I highly recommend Indo Compass and Ariel.

      Great choice for 1 day snorkeling adventure!
      Very well thought and organized tour full of unforgettable experiences! The waters at manta bay are very rough, I wouldn’t recommend for little kids or first time snorkelers, but it doesn’t depend on the guides. Whatever depended on them Ariel and Aldo did great! We felt safe and welcomed! It’s also cool that photos are included! The food at the restaurant was good and all transportation was comfortable! I recommend it over public boat tours 100%!

      Awesome day snorkeling at Nusa Penida
      We had the most amazing experience on our snorkelling and land tour to Nusa Penida! From start to finish, everything was seamless and unforgettable. The snorkelling at Manta Bay and Blue Lagoon was absolutely breathtaking. Swimming alongside majestic manta rays was a once-in-a-lifetime moment, and the vibrant coral reefs and colorful fish at Blue Lagoon felt like being in an underwater paradise. The water was so clear, and the guides made sure we were safe and comfortable the whole time. The land trip to Kelingking Beach was just as incredible. The views from the top are truly stunning—pictures don’t do it justice! Seeing the iconic T-Rex-shaped cliff in person was surreal, and our guides made sure we had plenty of time to soak it all in. A huge shoutout to our tour guides, Aldo and Ariel, for making the day so special. They were super friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. They shared interesting facts about the island and took great care of us throughout the day. If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure in Nusa Penida, this is the tour to book. Highly recommended—10/10!

    We visited today (mid feb 2024) and did the ”mix tour” option from the Indo Compass website, which cost 1,400,000 IDR per person, and includes snorkeling and a land tour on Nusa Penida. The main reason I wanted to give it a 4/5 rating was that when reseaching options, most of the 5/5 ratings seemed so good they could have been fake. So if you are here, like me yesterday, trying to figure out if it’s too good to be true, read on.

    For us (a family of four), it was exactly as we expected and we were all very satisfied with the trip. The staff were free divers (they can dive for very long times without breathing) and their focus was definitely on making sure we see marine wild life. We swam with manta rays and turtles, saw some amazing fish in a spot that was like an aquarium, and even saw a big group of dolphins from the boat.

    They had to alter the itinerary on the fly because the water was higher than expected, but it really felt like they knew what they were doing, and were focused on showing us the manta ray and some awesome snorkeling.

    The land tour was also nice. As many reviews state, the roads are small and bumpy, and it takes 35 minutes per direction to get to a viewpoint of the klingking beach. The view was nice and we thought the drive was worth it, it’s interesting to see the internals of the island and the small roads, but you will be one of the literally 10,000 tourists visiting the island the same day. There are a lot of people at the viewpoint, but we liked seeing it, bought some ice cream at the shacks the locals have all around the viewpoint, and took photos with monkeys.

    The restaurant with the infinity pool was a hit with our pre-teens, we took some amazing photos, relaxed in the pool and enjoyed a lunch of pretty good nasi goreng and pizza margarita.

    We had a total of 12 tourists on the speed boat, and 4 staff, and there was room well for everyone. It’s what you would expect of a boat equipped for snorkeling.

    The first snorkeling spot is a bit choppy, so if you get seasick easily, take the pill they offer you in the morning. Two of the people on our boat got seasick on the first spot, but were soon bettet and seemed to be very happy with the trip at the end of the day anyway. We could not have seen the manta ray without going to thqt spot, and they were very cool!

    So, all in all, probably not the only company by far that does trips like this, but the staff genuinely likes marine life and wants to make sure you see it.

    Also, I booked through the whatsapp number on their website. They asked me to pay 20% up front and I transferred the money over Wise. I felt a bit sceptical doing it, but seems it was worth the risk. There was a 3% extra charge for paying with visa for the rest of the payment on the morning of the trip.

    That’s all I guess, or as we say in Finland, siinä se. Kannatti käydä, terkkuja kotiin, Suomi mainittu, torillla tavataan! 95 nevö foget

    Vino and Vincent were amazing guides! We had so much fun in this immersive land and water experience. Vino and Vincent took care of us along the whole journey, giving my friend sea sickness medication before we started the boat ride because it was choppy, going out of their way to show us the sea creatures we might have missed, keeping us together and safe in the big swells, and making sure the entire group was having a great time. We had a tour of 8 people and loved the small group setting and care to detail. Between making sure that we each had photos taken at every photo op and giving us advice at the lunch spot to maximize our time Vino and Vincent went above and beyond. I would highly recommend this tour!

    Overall a very good day. If you are in the same area as the tour, we would recommend getting your own transport to the meeting point as the additional optional pick up charge was double what is available locally.
    The manta bay was very rough and not nice to snorkel. There was no value stopping there at the time and people got sea sick, nothing to see.
    Every other stop was great and the other snorkelling points were beautiful. The lunch at the restaurant was amazing with use of the infinity pool with spectacular views was a surprise.
    Guides were friendly, informative and responsible.

    Two things that left us extremely disappointed: left us on the middle of nowhere when we asked the tour guide to take a 3 min drive back to the parking lot (I left my phone there) and asked us to take the motorcycle to the port which would take us 45 mins and is extremely dangerous. I wasn’t expecting the guide to wait for me at the parking lot but he could at least drop us back instead letting us to walk under the heat for 20 mins.

    He told us they would leave the port @ 3:20pm, and so we paid extra to the driver (500000 IDR, we found the driver ourselves). But we actually left the port @ 3:55pm and wasted time waiting for him. Very disappointed.

    This tour guide does not carry good responsibility and we felt our safety was not the guide’s concern.

    I highly recommend this tour, especially because of the guides, Sahril and Lufi, who were exceptional and truly elevated the experience. They were well-prepared and made me feel safe, especially as a non-swimmer. Although I used a life vest and couldn't reach the manta rays due to strong currents, there was always a safety ring available for support. The second snorkeling spot was beautiful, with plenty of corals and fish, while I skipped the third. The lunch break was in a stunning location with a pool and scenic view. We had the option to relax at the restaurant while other guests visited Kelingking Beach, as we had already explored it on a previous day trip. My personal highlight was swimming with the turtles, an unforgettable experience!

    Booked this snorkeling trip last minute with only one spot left and it turned out to be one of the best days I had in Bali! we saw manta rays, turtles and plenty of fish and the lunch spot was incredibly scenic! Max and Ariel were the best guides, always putting our safety first and even climbing trees to get the best shots for us to memorize the trip :) overall, could not recommend this trip more

    What an amazing experience this was ! AJ and Dolin, our tour guides, were very entertaining and made this experience extremely memorable for us. We were able to visit multiple snorkelling spots throughout the day, starting off at Manta Bay, where we were beyond lucky, as we got to witness 3 beautiful manta rays !! They are such majestic creatures :) We also got to witness multiple sea turtles throughout our tour, and so much beautiful coral, the spots they took us too were perfect ! Our time on the island was also made very special as we were treated to a delicious lunch at a restaurant that overlooked Ceningan and Lembongan island, followed by time to appreciate the beautiful view of Kelingking beach, it was an outstanding view ! We then finished off the tour with one last snorkel spot, here we saw so many sea turtles and it was marvellous :) this experience was unforgettable and I couldn’t recommend this company more !

    Went with a friend I met solo travelling. It’s a really nice day out. We got back as the sun was setting and played pool and a few drinks at the meeting spot (coco bistro I think). The people on the boat are very friendly and a good laugh. It’s a very expensive trip and therefore there’s 90% couples rather than solo travellers. We were lucky enough to see a group of manta rays at the first snorkelling spot which isn’t guaranteed but seems likely. They let me join the boat trip even though it was full and it was still so spacious on the boat so don’t worry about it not being relaxing. You get mask/snorkel, fins, towel, water, watermelon and a meal at a nice restaurant all included. If you can afford to go I’d highly recommend

    The hike was really great! We chose this experience to avoid the usual too touristy tours. From Sanur together with our excellent guides Vino and Fernando we boarded a private boat that took us to Nusa Penida together with our group of max 12 people (so I would say the right compromise). The outward journey was a bit turbulent (but you know we are in the Indian Ocean!) so if you suffer from seasickness you will be given a pill! Arrived at the first snorkeling point we saw the manta rays (the sea was a bit rough, but together with our guides we had no problems!). From there we went to Nuda Penida where we had lunch in a great restaurant with swimming pool, which had a breathtaking view. I would have gladly spent a little more time there and eaten something more (including lunch is a bit limited given the price of the trip). Otherwise everything perfect.

    Wonderful daytrip to Nusa Penida, both snorkel and land tour was great! Shortly after booking I was contacted by the team for more information ( pick up from hotel is optional for little extra fee). Everything else was provided including lunch in a restaurant with amazing views. Lufi & Rayan and their team are very experienced and it was clear they love what they do and they tried to get the best out of snorkelling locations for us. We did get to see Manta ray and turtles :) I absolutely enjoyed this trip, the team was fun and caring and I highly recommend this tour if you want to get the best out of Nusa Penida visit in one day !! :) Thank you!
