About Neka Art Museum In Bali

Neka Art Museum is one very attractive attraction of Ubud in Bali.

The museum was founded by renowned art collector, Suteja Neka who was a Balinese teacher before going around the world collecting Balinese artwork. In the year 1982, the Ministry of Culture and Education inaugurated the Neka Art Museum. When you take the Neka Art Museum tour you will see a lot of paintings and sculptures in all six different buildings inside the premises. Some of the Neka Art Museum attractions include classical and contemporary Balinese paintings, ancient sculptures and modern Indonesian sculptures, etc. The Neka Art Museum Bali speaks and reflects traditional Balinese faith and beliefs.

History of the Neka Art Museum

Suteja Neka was the son of Bali's famous wood carver, I Wayan Neka. He studied to be a teacher. But in the middle of his teaching job, Suteja Neka quit and began helping his father to present his artworks, preserve and document other Balinese painting. In the year 1966, Neka sold many Balinese paintings to tourist from his small shop. Later in this process, Neka realized how important it is to preserve the artwork of Bali and thus began his quest to find and collect the artwork. With the help of Dutch artist Rudolf Bonnet, he went aboard where he saw Balinese art that was now rare in Indonesia. So on his return, he established the Neka Art Museum. Currently, the museum has classical puppet style paintings from the 17th century, and also many other Ubud style paintings.

Deepesh's 7 days trip to Bali

Overall trip was really good. But some places in the itinerary were not upto the mark. Places like beaches in nusa penida were not the places to be excited about. The kintamani view of batur mountain was not very exciting either. Sometimes driver try to convince us for activities outside the itinerary. The behaviour and timing of driver were good. You need to add more happening places in itinerary. There needs to be more clarity in inclusions and exclusions. Like cost of photos or lunch or dinner. No one was there to provide on spot addition of new activities. The itinerary was exceptional as it was well managed. There is room for improvement though. All in all I will definitely recommend others to choose travel triangle for their travels. Gillie T is one of the best places I visited during the trip. The aston beach resort is awesome. It should be two days in itinerary instead of one.

Aditya's 4 days trip to Bali

Our Bali trip with Tour Hunters was smooth, well-organized, and truly memorable. Sakshi initially coordinated with us during the consultation and helped us choose the perfect Bali package. Thanks to Muskan for handling all the planning—flights, e-visa, detailed itineraries, and hotel bookings—everything was managed effortlessly and made the experience completely stress-free. The WhatsApp group for real-time updates and the presence of local coordinators at each location ensured everything went as planned. We’d also like to thank Mr. Made Ratasah, our driver in Bali. Always on time, polite, and helpful—he took us to all the top spots and even helped us find great Indian restaurants. His support added a personal touch to our journey. Thanks to Sakshi, Muskan, Mr. Made Ratasah, and the entire Tour Hunters team for making this an memorable experience. Highly recommended for Hassele free travel experience.

Suhasp's 7 days trip to Bali

An excellent vacation, thanks to the Team at Felix Feria. There were other more 'economical' packages on offer by other agencies (for the same itinerary as well), but we went ahead with FF anyways - banking on their assurance of "there will be no surprises or last minute hidden costs escalation" in their package. And indeed it went absolutely as promised ! Must mention here that our cab driver in Bali (Mr Wayan) - a very cheerful, punctual and understanding person, made our cab trips an absolute pleasure. Thanks Felix Feria Team for making the vacation a memorable one for me and my family.

Priya's 7 days trip to Bali

Big thanks to Pooja for organising my trip to Bali in May 2025 in a well organised manner. This is my first international trip and your arrangements from ALS destination are truly awesome. We have had multiple drivers for our stay and special mention to Driver Nura. He was so punctual and very friendly. He helped us so much and suggested hotels according to our taste. Great highlight of the trip is stay at Nusa Lembongan. I think opting Lembongan island as per Pooja suggestion was incredible. We really had a great time exploring beauty of Bali . Thanks again to you for making this happen ❤️❤️!!! nice trip.

Vishalgm's 9 days trip to Bali

As always the trip experience thru travel triangle was good. However, when booked Ritu (TT) and Abbishek (Golden journey) had promised to discount TT fees in last installment. But the promise was not kept. Drivers were good and Abhishek was always available for support

Akshay's 8 days trip to Bali

This was my first international trip and Avishek guided us through each and every part of the process. They are very helpful and are just a call away no matter the time. They also suggest customisation from their side which helps in finalizing the itinerary. I have already send couple of referrals for them. Will definitely recommend! Ubud villas, smooth activities and execution
