Money mistakes to avoid

Transport without the tourist tax

From the airport agree a fixed taxi price or use Grab/Gojek - Canggu costs about 15-20 EUR and can take over an hour in traffic. On the island rent a scooter (5-7 EUR per day) if you are experienced, otherwise hire a private driver for about 45 EUR per day.
