Transport
Find out about the different ways to get around the island of Bali so you can plan your trip.
Public transport in Bali is limited and many places are inaccessible without a vehicle, so it's a good idea to arrange your own transport.
Taxis
Taxis are an easy and affordable way to get around, especially in bigger towns. Blue Bird Taxis are the most trusted company. They're light blue, with a bird logo inside a rounded diamond and 'Bali Taxi' written on the side. If you want to book a taxi driver for a whole day it costs around € 40 (US$ 41.74) per day including the petrol and, negotiably, parking costs.
Car Rental
If you want to rent a car, bear in mind you need to have an international license, the process for which may vary depending on the country. Remember you must also carry your original driving license with you.
Motorbike Rental
Another option, especially for short journeys, is to rent a motorbike. You can rent scooters in the main cities for around 50,000 IDR (US$ 3.08) - 75,000 IDR (US$ 4.63) per day.
Bicycle
Bikes, sepeda, have also become a popular way to tour the island. You can easily find bikes to rent in tourist areas for around 30,000 IDR (US$ 1.85) per day.
Private Driver
You can also book a private car rental service with a driver for up to 6 people. It costs around € 50 (US$ 52.18) for 8 hours and you can go anywhere you want in Bali.
Boat
If you want to visit other surrounding Indonesian islands such as Lombok and the Gili Islands, you can travel by boat.
