Buses

Getting around Bali, the best way is to hire a taxi since the bus network isn’t very extensive and can be a little tedious, getting stuck in traffic for long periods of time. Taking the bus could also mean sharing a seat with a rooster or a goat, since that is how the Balinese sometimes transport their animals. At the same time, if you want to see the village life around the island, meet locals – taking the bus is your best bet. Taking the bus around the city is also the cheapest mode of transport in Bali and perfect for budget travelers. The Pemara (bus system) has several offices located around the city. The Pemara also operates a shuttle between some of the main tourist attractions.
