Transportation

Getting around Bali can be challenging due to narrow streets and traffic, and not all locations are connected by public transport. It is recommended to rent a private car with a driver or a scooter for the duration of your trip. The average price for private car hire with a driver is £25-30 a day, while a scooter costs around £5 per day. Travel time may vary depending on traffic and destination, but Google Maps is typically accurate.

Useful Tips

If you have more days, explore the lush green waterfall of Tegenungan and the Sekumpul waterfall which are perfect for Instagram-worthy photos. If you have fewer days to spend, shorten days 2 and 3 into a combined day trip. Or, if beaches and sunsets are your priorities, extend day 4 to include other beautiful beaches Bali has to offer, such as Nusa Dua and Jimbaran Beach.

Airports

Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) is the main airport in Bali, located approximately 13 kilometres from Denpasar city centre, and serves both international and domestic flights.
