Safety & Route Recommendations

When driving along Bali's coastal or mountain roads, ensure your scooter is in top technical condition with properly pressurized tires and working dual brakes. We recommend reserving an executive scooter (such as the Honda PCX 160 or Yamaha NMAX 155) for longer island day trips.

lightbulb Insider Tip

Always carry a small stash of 500,000 - 1,000,000 IDR cash for local temple parking fees and local Pertamina fuel stops along rural routes.
