When you go to Kutu on a batch tour, worry about how to get to the hotel or at all to the Kuta itself it is not easy - they will bring it away. Another thing is that your travel you are planning yourself. So, How to get to Cute:
By plane
Ngurah Rai International Airport International Airport, also known as Denpassapa International Airport (DPS), is actually directly south of Cute, a 15-minute taxi ride.
About tickets and time of flight to Bali Airport read here.
Cute on a taxi can be reached for RP 50000. If you do not have too much baggage with you, you can save money and pass 200 meters from the territory of the airport - there you can catch a taxi that does not pay service fees in the airport administration, and therefore their Do not let go from the airport. For example, Bali Taksi (+62 361 701111) will take approximately RP 20,000 with you for the same trip. Although essentially the difference is not very big. You can also catch BEMO (local minibuses) near the airport - it will take you to the center of Kuta just for RP 5000-10000.
By car
Cute can be reached on the main road of Jalan Ngurah Rai from more northern cities (Denpasar, Sanur and Ubud) and from southern places (Jimbaran, Nusa Dua and Uluwatu). If you are traveling from Seminyak, do not forget to turn on Jalan Sunset - much better than the overloaded routes of Jalan Raya Seminyak and Jalan Legian.
By bus
Kuta is connected by bus routes with all areas of Bali. There are regular transfers services, including Perama. The buses Perama to Cute drive from Sanur, Ubuda, candidates, Padang Bai and Lovina. Another good bus company -trans Sarbagita. Buses Riding on the route: Batu Boulan - Torkati - Sanur - Cute Central Park - Jimbaran - Nusa Dua. And sometimes buses from and to Nusa Dua stop at the airport. At the airport there is no explicit bus stop Trans Sarbagita-Autobuses stop at the crossroads from the left side of the airport output. The cost of travel by bus is 3,500 Rp for adults and 2,500 for students.
On BEMO
As elsewhere on Bali, Bemo in Kuta today is a much less important and frequent way of transport, rather than before. This is due to the fact that in recent years there are many Balinese with decent sufficient, which are enough to earn to afford their own transport. Also, an increase in the scale of tourism over the past 10 years has played its role - few of the tourists agree to ride on the old good rupture Bemo!
Bemo Corner, in the center of Kuta at the junction Japane Legian and Japane Raya Kuta, before was the pier of the backpeckers. In today's days, this place is practically no meaning, but small blue buses still exists, and the drivers of these BEMO in conditions of a sharp lack of funds can easily contemporary with you five times higher than the real one. In Denpasar there is a Bimo-Station, and from there they drive more or less regular Bemo in Kutuh, and you can sit on them.
Boat or ship
Benoa Harbor (Benoa Harbor) - not confused with Tanjung Benoa (Tanjung Benoa) is about 20 minutes to the northeast of Kuta, and boats and cruise liners from Gili Islands, Lombok and Nusa Lemborgan regularly sailing here. Most companies operating with the Benoa port offer free shipping through the territory of Kuta - very convenient!
Now let's see How to move around Kuta.
Kuta stretches along the beach from the airport to Legian, and small alley lead from beautiful beaches in a densely populated area with hotels, bars and restaurants. To avoid disappointments associated with roads and traffic jams, the best option will be a combination of walking on a small alley and taxis and or a rented motorcycle for longer excursions.
By car
Tubes - the constant problem of Cute, especially when it rains. Often it is better to park your car somewhere before you drive to the city center. The center of the city is half a kilometer in size and half a kilometer in the width - it would seem very small. But when you get stuck in traffic, you can sit on half an hour or even more. So traveling at such short distances is better and truth. There are several car parking in Kuta (in addition to those that are near your hotel). Put the car costs about RP 5000 for an unlimited period - for example, a large parking on Japane Legian at the top of Poppies II. There is a public parking on Japane Pantay directly near the beach, but there may be a lot of cars there.
Finding a company for car rental in Kuta -na problem, especially POPPIES I and POPPIES II. We rent a car costs from RP 140,000. Check the lease contract before signing - do not miss any moment. The car can be adjusted directly to your hotel or hostel.
On a motorcycle
Local taxi drivers and motorcyclists are always happy passengers. This type of informal transport is called Ojek and it is fast and cheap. Although for brave tourists.
You can also rent a scooter yourself. In Kuta, literally hundreds of offices of rental scooters: this pleasure should not cost more RP 30000 - 40000 per day and RP 20000 - 25000 per day if you rent for a week or more. In order to give you a helmet - for your own security and due to the fact that wearing a helmet is a mandatory requirement in Indonesia - if you go without a helmet, the police can be stopped and fined. It should be understood that the streets of Cute can be very chaotic and dangerous for inexperienced riders, so think twice before renting a motorcycle or scooter. By the way, there are special modified motorcycles with fasteners for surfboard.
Know that the police are always very trying to reduce foreigners. They will stop you for any, and sometimes make a selective check for international driver's license, even if you lease the most simple scooter. You will probably be offered to pay a cash fine at a price that can be the same as the cost of weekly rental.
If you think that you are right, you can go to court, but you should understand that this is a short-lasting process, and you have to hire a translator and so on. Most insurance does not cover cases of the accident on the scooter, so in the event of failure they will have to pay themselves. In short, careful!
