About Juara Holding Group
Turtle Island Bali is owned and operated by Juara Holding Group, an Indonesian travel company founded in 2015 and headquartered in Bali. We are the same family of brands behind Bali Premium Trip, Indonesia Juara Trip, and Komodo Luxury. When you book this tour, you are talking directly to the operator — the team that owns the vehicles, briefs the boat captains, and answers your WhatsApp — not a reseller adding a margin on top.
That single fact changes your whole experience. You get honest per-boat pricing, real same-day availability, and one accountable team from airport pickup to the moment you step off the glass bottom boat. This page explains who we are, what each brand does, and why thousands of guests — most of them families from Australia, the US, and the UK — choose to book direct.
Who Is Juara Holding Group?
Juara Holding Group (juaraholding.com) is an Indonesian tour operator group established in 2015. Over more than a decade we have grown from a single Bali transport service into a family of specialist travel brands covering Bali, Nusa Penida, Komodo, Sumba, and Raja Ampat — with our own drivers, our own guest-relations team, and long-standing partnerships with the boat crews of Tanjung Benoa.
We are not a marketplace and we are not a booking portal. Every itinerary is planned and run by our own people. That is why guests can message us at 9 pm asking for a next-day pickup from Nusa Dua and get a confirmed car, driver, and boat by breakfast — a request we handle almost daily during Australian school holidays.
Our Family of Brands
| Brand | What it does | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Turtle Island Bali | Glass bottom boat trips, Tanjung Benoa watersports, and turtle-focused experiences — this website | Families, couples, half-day trips from Nusa Dua, Uluwatu, and Seminyak |
| Bali Premium Trip | Private full-day Bali tours, Bali and Nusa Penida itineraries, luxury vehicles with English-speaking drivers | Guests who want one driver and one plan for the whole holiday |
| Indonesia Juara Trip | Multi-island journeys beyond Bali — Komodo, Sumba, and more | Travellers extending Bali into a wider Indonesian adventure |
| Komodo Luxury | Private phinisi charters and liveaboard trips in Komodo National Park | 3D2N Komodo escapes — just one hour’s flight from Bali |
Because these brands share one operations team, your Turtle Island morning can connect seamlessly to a Nusa Penida day trip, a 3D2N Komodo cruise, a Sumba adventure with wild horses and the villages of Ratenggaro, or a Raja Ampat expedition to some of the best underwater scenery on Earth. One company, end-to-end — no juggling five different operators on five different chats.
Why Book Direct with the Operator, Not a Reseller
Tanjung Benoa’s counters and third-party listings are famous for inflated rack rates, strikethrough “discounts”, and surprise per-person charges once you reach the island. Booking direct with the operator removes all of that. Here is what direct actually means with us:
- Honest, published prices. Our private glass bottom boat is IDR 500,000 per boat for up to 9 people. Tours start from IDR 150K per person. Banana boat is IDR 110K, jet ski IDR 235K. Anything else is quoted transparently on WhatsApp before you commit — see our full price list.
- No middleman margin. Resellers buy the same boat you can book here, then add their fee. You pay the operator’s price because you are talking to the operator.
- Real answers, fast. Want a package without watersports? A stroller-friendly plan for a toddler? A tour that finishes in time for the Uluwatu sunset? The person replying on WhatsApp is the person who dispatches the drivers, so “yes” means yes.
- Same-day and next-day booking. Because we control our own fleet, late requests are usually workable — a common ask from families staying in Nusa Dua and Seminyak.
- Hotel pickup done properly. Choose from three vehicle tiers — Toyota Innova Zenix, Toyota Alphard, or the seven-seat electric Denza D9 — with transfer costs quoted per area. Details on our packages with hotel pickup page.
- One accountable team. If anything needs fixing, you talk to us — not a call centre for a platform that has never met your driver.
For guests who want everything handled, our full private package — Alphard with driver, boat, and guided island visit — is USD 100 per person. Compare that with piecing the same day together from separate listings and the value is obvious.
Our Local Team, Our Standards
Child seats can be arranged on request — something Australian families ask us about more than almost anything else, and something much of the Bali market still overlooks.
We also choose honesty over hype in what we promise. Baby turtle releases depend on conservation schedules and hatchling availability — we will never guarantee one to secure a booking. Read how it really works on our turtle hatchling release tour page and our guide to turtle conservation in Bali. Ethical animal experiences matter to our guests, so they matter to us.
From the Airport to the Outer Islands
Your trip with us can begin before you clear immigration. Through our group’s VIP airport fast track service (from USD 105 per person), a greeter meets you at the aerobridge and walks you through priority lanes — the gentlest possible start for a family landing after a long flight. From there, a family Turtle Island experience or a full-day South Bali itinerary slots neatly into your first days; if it is your very first visit, start with our first-timer’s guide to Bali.
When you are ready to go further, the same team takes you to Nusa Penida, Komodo, Sumba, or Raja Ampat — flights, boats, hotels, and guides arranged under one roof. Tell us your dates and interests in the tailored trip builder and we will draft the whole journey.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Turtle Island Bali an official tour operator?
Yes. Turtle Island Bali is a brand of Juara Holding Group, an Indonesian tour operator founded in 2015, operating with its own local team, licensed drivers, and long-standing boat partners in Tanjung Benoa. You can verify the group at juaraholding.com.
Why is booking direct cheaper than booking through a reseller?
Resellers and counters add a commission to the operator’s price — and some add per-person surprises on arrival. Booking direct, you pay our published rates: IDR 500,000 per private glass bottom boat (up to 9 guests) and tours from IDR 150K per person, with anything else quoted clearly on WhatsApp first. See the price page for the full list.
Can I book a same-day or next-day tour?
Usually, yes. Because we operate our own vehicles and hold daily boat allocations, most same-day and next-day requests from Nusa Dua, Uluwatu, and Seminyak can be confirmed within the hour on WhatsApp — including pickup time and transfer cost for your hotel area. Directions and meeting points are on how to get there.
Do you guarantee a baby turtle release?
No — and be cautious of anyone who does. Hatchling releases depend on conservation schedules and whether hatchlings are ready; we will tell you honestly what is likely on your date. Our hatchling release page explains the seasons and how to maximise your chances.
Can the same company arrange our Komodo or Nusa Penida trip?
Yes — that is the point of booking with a group. Komodo Luxury runs our 3D2N Komodo trips (one hour’s flight from Bali), and Bali Premium Trip handles Bali and Nusa Penida packages, Sumba, and Raja Ampat. One WhatsApp thread covers your entire Indonesian journey.
How do I contact the team?
