Japanese guide price table (2026)
| Option | Price (IDR) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Guide only | 700,000 | Licensed Japanese commentary, 8 hours — you already have a car or villa driver |
| Guide + private driver (Ubud) | 850,000 | Same guide + car for the day from an Ubud-area hotel (up to 6 guests) |
| Guide + driver (outside Ubud) | 700,000 + 550,000 | Canggu, Seminyak, Sanur, Jimbaran, and nearby — hotel pin sets the zone |
| Extra hour | 150,000 | Same rate whether guide-only or with-driver |
One price for the whole group. A couple and a family of five pay the same guide fee.
Worked examples
- Japanese couple in Ubud, already have a villa driver: guide only → IDR 700,000
- Same couple, need a car too: with-driver tour → IDR 850,000 total
- Family of four in Canggu, need car + Japanese guide: 700,000 + 550,000 → IDR 1,250,000
- Day runs to 10 hours: add 2 × 150,000 → + IDR 300,000

Guide only vs + driver — which price to pick
| You already have… | Book | Total in Ubud |
|---|---|---|
| Villa driver / rented car | Guide only | 700,000 |
| Nothing — need car + guide | Japanese + private driver option | 850,000 |
| Prefer a fixed Ubud route | Full Day Ubud Tour + Japanese guide add-on | Tour price + 700,000 |
Deep dive on the with-driver option: Japanese guide with private driver. Sample temple day: Japanese guide Ubud day.
Why Japanese costs more than English
Fewer licensed Bali guides work in Japanese than in English. The guide-only rate is IDR 700,000 (English is IDR 600,000). The Ubud with-driver total is still capped at IDR 850,000 — same published day total as French — so the driver line adjusts by language. Full licence notes: licensed tour guide in Bali.

- Open licensed tour guide Bali.
- Choose Japanese (guide only) or Japanese + private driver.
