When we went to Bali for the first time we did the volcano tour to kintimani. I never saw the volcano through the hawkers that swamped us as we got off the bus.
All I saw was carvings, chess sets and chop sticks.
everybody else said the volcano was lovely lol.
I must have looked interested or something. But then i was so surrounded i could hardly get back into the bus and a few of the hawkers even came into the bus with me. we had to literally push them out and close all the doors and windows.
That was about 6 years ago, and have been back up since and found the hawkers are no where near as bad, or maybe i just give out a 'No Thanks' vibe now lol.
Cheers
