Bali is big and has different cities. The capital of Bali is Denpasar, but the tourist movement is mainly concentrated in Kuta, which is well urbanized, Seminyak, which has a quieter and more rustic atmosphere, and Ubud, which is the heart of the local culture, a place surrounded by forests.
To go from one city to another in Bali it is necessary to have transport such as a car or motorcycle and as the traffic on the streets is not always light, many people choose to stay in different regions along the trip precisely to save time in travel and have the opportunity to get to know the cities in which they stay in more depth.
Transport in Bali:
The main ways to get around Bali are by cars and motorcycles. The traffic in the place is kind of chaotic, the motorcycles carry entire families and transport objects so large that we are impressed with the images we see. A great way to save yourself the hassle of driving around the island, which uses the English hand, is to hire a private guide/driver, who can ride with you all day and show you the main sights. The service is very popular and has great value for money, especially for those in a group. Read more about Visa Queries
What to do in Bali:
1. Uluwatu Temple:
One of the main attractions in Bali is the Uluwatu Temple, a Balinese temple that is located at one end of the island, on the edge of a cliff and by the sea. It is a mystical and beautiful place to visit in the late afternoon, when the sun goes down. Those who want can also enjoy a Balinese dance show that takes place at night on the spot.

2 – Tanah Lot:
Tanah Lot is another well-known temple in Bali, built in stones that are “in the middle of the sea”. When the tide is low it is possible to walk to the place, but when it is high the temple is isolated in the middle of the sea. The sunset seen from Tanah Lot is one of the most beautiful on the island and it is well worth including it in your itinerary!
