A fantastic experience, highly recommended! - We had a brilliant time on our street food tour! Lena was an amazing guide, who shared her local knowledge and was more than happy to answer questions that we had.
The food we tried was delicious and gave us a real insight into different foods that we may not normally try, but would now happily eat again.
Our kids (14 and 16) also had a brilliant time and tried almost everything on offer!
Absolutely recommend!

Very good experience to having local food!! - Irfan introduced us to exotic fruit market that we were normally scared of trying, advised us to how to choose kue (cakes) and soto (soup), was knowledgeable as a history teacher of Indonesian food, respectable as a multicultural commentator of different cultural traditions, entertaining and engaging to ordinary people just like his customers. Genuinely lovable food-tour guy. Highly commended.

Great food tour - My guide for this tour was Lena , who was a excellent guide and very easy to talk to
The meeting point is easy to find
We started off by visiting a few local markets and trying some food from the markets, before going to a fruit seller and tasting some wonderful tasting fruits I had never. seen before, it was superb walking from market to market and seeing everyday normal life!
Are last stop was a short taxi ride where we had a desert and local energy drink
You are given lots to eat so I would advise to go on a empty stomach
At the end of the tour Lena will organise a taxi to take you back to your hotel
If you late a foodie and like to try new abs different foods and see areas tourists don’t normally see , you will enjoy this food tour

Great food tastes and excellent guide - We had a great tour with Wira. He took us through the local market and explained a number of things before going to the food stalls to taste some great local food.
We had already been in Bali for a while and we were able to taste things you don’t see on a lot of menus.
This tour is a great way to see another side of food in Bali and taste some delicious street food.
Wira was really good in his explanations and answering our questions about local foods.

Excellent guide and diverse food tastings - Wira was an excellent guide and had a fun time looking and eating at places we would not have ventured to before. Go hungry as there is lots of food and Wira is a great guide giving history and context of what you are eating. 2 markets and multiple food tastings then a short taxi for a desert like no other were the order of the day for us and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Great experience. - Our guide was fantastic and very friendly. She explained fully all the sites we went to and the food we ate it’s origins and cultural significance. The food was amazing there was plenty of it so I advise all people who take this tour to go on an empty stomach as there is much to eat and try. Overall a great tour with a very friendly tour guide and host restaurants .

of course this was a last minute email so we had nowhere else to go in such a hurry thus we went despite ourselves

Avoid this Bali "Eat Street" Local Food Tour . - This was the worst food tour I have ever been on. The meeting address was incorrect. The first restaurant was not open. The food was prepared in unsanitary conditions. There were no clean toilet facilities on the tour. We were required to take a taxi from location to location 2 times during the tour. The restaurant for roast suckling pig was dirty, noisy, disgusting, and dirty. Overall a terrible experience. Intrepid should be embarrassed. Our guide was friendly and did his best although the overall tour was a disaster.
