Currently, public transportation is more available in the tourist area of southern Bali. Types of public transportation available include meter taxis, online taxis, and online motorbike taxis.
If you visit more than one tourist spot in one day and many tourist areas are outside the southern Bali area, the best transportation option for sightseeing in Bali for you is private transportation. Private transportation can be in the form of a motorcycle or car.
Of course, you don't need to bring your own vehicle when vacationing on Bali Island. There are many motorbike rental or car rental services in Bali.

Bali Tourists who are vacationing with their family or want to go further from the southern Bali area, prefer to use a car for vacation transportation.
There are two types of car rentals on Bali Island. That is self-drive car rental and car rental in Bali with a driver. Which type of car rental you will choose, of course, is up to you.
1. Self-Drive Car Rental
The price of car rental in Bali also depends on the type of car and the year of manufacture of the car. For example, the price of renting a Toyota Avanza in Bali is around IDR 250,000/24 hours without fuel.
The best way to find car rentals in Bali is to use Google and on the Google page you will find many car rental providers.
2. Car Rental With Driver
The price of car rental with a driver in Bali depends on the type of car you want to use.
For the price of renting a Toyota Avanza in Bali with a driver, it is around IDR 450,000/12 hours including fuel. Then, for the price of renting a Toyota Innova Reborn with a driver in Bali, it is around IDR 700,000/12 hours including fuel. If you are vacationing with family or friends and the number of participants exceeds 7 people, it is a good idea to choose a microbus type vehicle such as Isuzu ELF or Toyota Hiace.
Just for your information, there are some advantages if you use car rental with driver services in Bali.
The risk of car damage is not on you, but on the driver. For example, if the price of renting an Avanza with a driver in Bali is IDR 350,000/12 hours. Then divided by the number of participants, for example 4 people. Then the car rental price becomes IDR 87,500/person. If you drive yourself, there is a risk of accidents. The cost of claiming car damage insurance is IDR 300,000 and does not include the cost of car rental per day at the workshop. The cleanliness of the car is the responsibility of the driver. You don't need to worry about finding a parking place for your vehicle when you are at the tourist spot you are visiting.
Those are some examples of popular tourist attractions in Bali. For those of you who are true travelers, you must go to Bali even if it is only once in your lifetime. I guarantee you will not regret it.
