For those of you who feel like getting around Bali, this is your chance to get out and see the sights. The following sections let you know where to go and how to get there, so if you need a break from the beach, read on...

HOW TO GET AROUND

HIRE CAR

You can find a car rental agency in all the major tourist areas. Prices start from approx. US$20 a day for a Suzuki style jeep (Jimny) and around US$35 for a new kijang jeep. Although most of the rental cars are in decent shape, you should check thoroughly before signing any forms.

MOTOR BIKE RENTAL

As with hire cars, you can find bikes for rent almost anywhere. Prices usually start from around US$5 a day for a standard 125cc motorbike. Scooters, affectionately called 'Bebek's'(Ducks), start at around US$3 per day. Like renting a car, you should always check the bike before parting with your cash! In Indonesia you have to wear a helmet by law!

BICYCLE/MOUNTAIN BIKE

Cycling can be a cheap and enjoyable way to get around, although you do have to be quite fit to ride around the central, hilly regions. You can find bike rental shops in all the main tourist spots.

BEMO

Public transport mini-vans; by far the cheapest way to travel, although not the most comfortable!

TOURS

A very relaxing way to see the sights, organised tours relieve you of the hassle of trying to navigate your way around. On the down side, however, you do have to follow itineraries, so spur of the moment sight-seeing is not an option. Tours can be booked at any of the travel offices scattered around the island
