Accommodation |
|
As
you can imagine there's an enormous variety
of accommodation available in Bali. It varies
from magnificent five star resorts to simple
jungle cabins, depending on the location and
your holiday budget. |
|
|
Credit
Cards |
|
Major
credit cards are acceptable in most hotels along
with American dollar traveler's cheques. |
|
|
Electricity |
|
Most
hotels use 220 volts, 50 cycles and a round,
two-pronged slim plug. Bathroom shaver plugs
usually have a transformer switch. We suggest
taking an adaptor for your appliance. |

Getting
Around |
|
You
will find a range of chauffeur driven limousines,
self-drive cars, taxis and hotel courtesy cars.
Many taxis are not metered so it's wise to negotiate
the fare before you climb aboard. Bemos are
a unique form of transport. They are a mini-van
masquerading as a communal bus. You simply hail
the driver and negotiate the fare that suits
you both. Motorcycles can also be hired in many
places but special care should be exercised
at all times as road and traffic conditions
can be somewhat hazardous in certain locations.
Traveling around Bali is made all the easier
because everywhere you go you'll find friendly
people only too happy to give you advice and
directions on how to get where you want to go. |

Driver's
License |
|
If
you wish to hire a car you must be over 18 years
of age and posses an International Driver's
License or license from ASEAN countries. |
|
|
Clothing
|
|
Light,
airy, casual clothes are the most practical
and you'll find natural fibers like cotton or
linen are the most comfortable in Bali's often
humid conditions. Waist sashes should be worn
when visiting temples. |
