What's the best way to get around?

Hello people, Traveling to Bali with a friend in Feb. Are public transports or buses a good option or do you guys suggest renting a taxi with a driver to take us to different places. Do you have any s… more

Depends on your budget and comfort level. Scooters are cheap and common, but can be hectic for beginners. Grab (the ride-hailing app) is pretty reliable and affordable for getting around. For day trips outside of the main tourist areas, hiring a driver is a good option; you can usually negotiate a price beforehand. Check out local forums or review sites for driver recommendations.

That's really helpful, thanks! I hadn't considered hiring a driver for day trips – that sounds much less stressful than navigating public transport in an unfamiliar place. Are there any particular areas you'd recommend for a day trip?

Kuta to Sanur or Seminyak on New Year's Eve?

Partner's in Kuta hospital, roads closing for NYE. Better bet for getting back to a hotel in Sanur or Seminyak tomorrow evening?

Oof, that's a tough one. New Year's Eve in Bali is… something else. Sanur's generally calmer than Seminyak, so the roads might be slightly less chaotic getting back to your hotel. But with your partner in the hospital, the shortest, least congested route wins. Use Google Maps (or whatever app you have) right now – check traffic predictions for both routes at the time you anticipate leaving. That'll give you the best real-time answer. And honestly, maybe have a backup plan...like a driver on standby if things get truly insane. Wishing your partner a speedy recovery!
