Private Driver Tours and Transfers in Bali

A private car with a driver

You travel in a private car with a driver, so the day follows your group’s pace. Ngurah and our drivers speak English. We are based in Ubud and drive across Bali, so you do not need to be staying here. Tell us where you are and where you would like to go, and we will say what is practical and send a quote.

Every plan is agreed with you before booking: the route, the timing and what the day includes. Places named on our pages are ideas to talk about, not a fixed list of stops.

The car takes up to 5 passengers, or 4 if you are bringing suitcases. If you have bulky bags, tell us what they are when you message and we will say whether they fit.

Six destinations, seven day options

Each destination has its own page with practical questions to settle before you book.

Full-day tours

• Kintamani: highland viewpoints and volcanic scenery by car.
• Bedugul: lake and mountain country in central Bali.
• Uluwatu: the southern clifftop and coast, also offered as a half day.
• Lovina: the north coast, with a very early start if dolphin watching interests you.

Half-day tours

• Uluwatu: a shorter southern outing.
• Ubud: a half day in and around the town.
• Tanah Lot: the sea temple on the west coast.

A half day and a full day are different products, so please tell us which you want. A half day will not fit everything a full-day guide describes.

Not sure which to choose?

Our guide to choosing a Bali day tour compares the options by pace and effort. You can also message us with your interests and how much time you have, and we will suggest where to start. If you are comparing where to base yourself, see day trips from different bases.

Transfers and Java

• Airport transfers: pickup and drop-off.
• Transfers across Bali: hotel to hotel, or to a harbour for your boat. Boat tickets are on our fast boat page.
• Java: trips by arrangement, with route and duration agreed before booking.

More places and activities

Beyond day trips around Bali, we can help arrange Besakih and Lempuyang temple trips, Mount Batur and Mount Agung trekking, and rafting, ATV, tubing and cycling. For a longer journey, ask about Ijen and Bromo in East Java.

Asking for a quote

Message us on WhatsApp with the tour or places you have in mind, the date, how many people and where we should collect you. For driving, you pay cash on the day. Our contact page has the details. Prefer to ride yourself? See Scooter rental.
