Generally speaking, it’s not all that simple to get around Bali “free and easy” with alternate modes of transportation. The issue is not a lack of taxis or “bemos,” which are chauffeur-driven rental cars, they are plentiful in Bali. You should remember that there is almost always a detour to the souvenir shop that pays commissions, and the same is true for restaurant recommendations you receive from your (taxi) driver since they typically earn him commission as well. If you dare, you can attempt to travel by public transportation, such as buses or minibuses, but these vehicles are frequently crowded, and you will be required to follow a “schedule” that is neither dependable nor practical and may even prevent you from taking in the lovely sights and impressions you would otherwise want to remember from your trip.
