No matter which country you choose, there will always be a tourist who wants to explore it on their own. A car rental service can make life easier for such a tourist. There are immediately a lot of opportunities here, where to go and what to see. And along the way, you can always go off the route and have lunch at some picturesque restaurant that catches your fancy.
Bali is no exception; this island has a huge number of attractions, most of which are located in the interior of the island, which means you need to somehow get to them. Everyone is used to renting a car in Europe, but they treat the countries of Southeast Asia with great caution. In general, this is correct; as a rule, traffic rules are not strictly observed here, and besides, traffic is on the left. However, I can say that in a couple of days you quickly get used to it and begin to feel at ease. Therefore, if you have a driver’s license, driving experience and a great desire to break away from standard routes, then car rental in Bali is convenient. Such a trip will become several times more colorful and will be remembered for a long time.
Despite the fact that renting a car in Bali is not popular, I still advise you to book this service in advance and not on the spot. Because you may be faced with the fact that there will no longer be the car that will be convenient for you. For example, there are a lot of you and you plan to travel deeper into the island, then it is better to consider an SUV. And if you have certain wishes for the gearbox, then even more so.
The average cost of renting a car in Bali starts from $25 per day, of course it all depends on the car and the number of days. In order to rent a car, you need an international license, cash or bank card and at least a year of driving experience. The driver must be over 21 years of age. But, I’ll tell you a secret, you can get a car with a regular license, but if you are stopped to check your documents, the police will have to pay a small fine of around 10-20 dollars. Therefore, if the idea of renting a car came unexpectedly during your vacation, and you only have your usual license with you, then don’t worry, there is always a way out to Bali.
Many will say that it is much more convenient to take a motorcycle, which is very popular in Southeast Asia. Yes this is true. However, it’s much more comfortable in a car, you won’t be tormented by sweltering heat, you can always turn on the air conditioning, and driving a car is much safer than riding a motorcycle.
