Bike and Car Rental
Bike Rental
Getting around on a scooter/moped in Bali is a fabulous way to explore the Island. And it sure beats being stuck in traffic. But before taking to riding a bike in Bali yourself there are some things to be aware of:
- The road rules will be different from your home country and to most it looks like “organised chaos” , if you are not a confident rider already the streets of Bali are generally not a great place to learn.
- To be covered by your travel insurance you must be licensed to ride the same size bike back in your home country (please note basically no bikes in Bali are under 50CC, which is what an open driver’s license in Australia covers you for. You will need a motorcycle license to be covered by insurance).
- To legally ride in Bali (and also to be covered by insurance) you also need an International license.
- Helmets and Shirts must also been worn when riding your bike.
Car Rental
A private guide and driver is the best way to get around for longer trips and for first-timers.
By booking a reputable guide you are ensured you get an English-speaking driver (and also other languages) who is licensed to drive tourists around. You also know that they’ll know exactly where they are taking you and they are very happy to answer any of your questions on Bali, the culture, traditions, and landmarks.
Many drivers offer their services on the streetside and they will give you business cards with their phone numbers in case you want to do a tour during your trip.
You can also rent a car via Grab.
