Erri TjendanaPresident Director
Mr. Erri Tjendana continued a family legacy that began with Bali Cepat, a local transportation and expedition service founded in 1973.

In 1989, he expanded into travel with Tjendana Mandra Sakti—widely known as TMS Tours—initially serving Asian and ASEAN markets.

That momentum shaped a larger vision: one integrated company supporting Bali’s tourism industry through trusted hospitality, travel and transportation services.

Bringing hospitality, travel and transportation together into one trusted service ecosystem.
