Beware of Common Hidden Charges Online
Some cheap third-party quotes (e.g. IDR 250,000/day) end up costing significantly more due to unexpected add-ons:
- "Fuel Surcharge": Asking for cash petrol money mid-trip.
- Overtime Penalties: Charging steep hourly fees after 8 hours instead of 10-12 hours.
- Unscheduled Shopping Stops: Taking tourists to high-commission souvenir shops.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it better to rent with a driver than self-drive?
Yes. Self-driving in Bali involves high traffic density, narrow village roads, and difficult parking. A private driver navigates shortcuts (jalan tikus) and handles all parking while you relax.
