About two years ago I met a Germany couple who had a holiday in Bali for one week, as a guide and tour private driver he asked me to make a tour to the eastern part of Bali, as usual we drove our car through the streets of Ida Bagus Mantra which is the fastest way to the east of Bali. We stop at Klungkung Kertagosa and walk-around at Klungkung Traditional Market, these tourist destinations are already widely known by the local and foreign visitor. Then we continued our journey (east) to the Goa Lawah /Bat Cave, this tourist destination has also been highly recognized by the visitor. We continue the journey towards the east to the Karangasem.
