Traveling on the island of Bali will never cause you a problem. Most people choose to walk when moving about their resorts, while on the beaches, or when in the local villages. If you’d like to travel into the jungle or towards some of the towns a bit further away from the beaches you will need to find another method of transportation.
The most popular include the metered taxi or a chartered vehicle with a hired driver. If you do take a taxi, make sure that the meter is turned on before you embark on your journey to avoid the driver attempting to scam you by charging a high flat rate. If you take a private vehicle, or bemo, you should negotiate the rate with the driver before you head out.
If you’d like to be a bit more eco-friendly you could rent a bicycle at a daily rate. Plan each day in advance, though, and remember that not all of the roads in Bali are bicycle friendly. The roads are step and there is a lot of traffic in some areas.
