If you are in Candi Dasa you could drop in to the Kelapa Mas and ask for Nengah (he works there). Its at the north end of town just before the lagoon on the beach side of the road. Best to use his full name as I think there are at leat 2 Nengahs there.
He has a very detialed knowledge of history and culture and I'm sure he would enhance anyones visit to Karangasem area. He has some really good ideas for touring eastern Bali and while we were there organised a day trip for a guest that included being dropped off at a village and trekking through the hills to the next village for pick up, then driving down through the back tracks with great views of the terraced rice fields and returning via Tirrtagangga.
