Is there public transport in Bali?

Not really, not for visitors. A few local buses and the Kura-Kura tourist shuttle run set routes, but there is no metro or train, so almost everyone relies on apps, drivers or scooters.

Are Grab and Gojek allowed in Bali?

Yes, and they work across the south and Ubud. Some spots near official taxi stands block pickups at the door, so you may need to walk a short way to meet your driver.

How much is a private driver for a day?

It depends on distance and vehicle, but expect a flat rate for around ten hours. Agree the price, the hours and who pays for fuel and entry tickets before you leave.

Should I rent a scooter in Bali?

Only if you already ride confidently and hold the right licence. The roads are chaotic, accidents are common, and riding without the correct licence can void your travel insurance.

Why does everything take so long to reach?

The roads are narrow and the traffic is heavy, worst in the south in the late afternoon. Twenty kilometres can take over an hour, so keep each day to a couple of stops.
