Bali · Indonesia

Staying online in Bali

Bali is a scooter-and-Grab map. The temple is not on your hotel's wifi, and the turn you missed is a twenty-minute loop.

Before you land

Ngurah Rai is a Grab, a hotel driver, or a taxi desk. Agree the ride on the phone before you walk into the crowd. Install on the plane.

Getting around

There is no metro to save you. Grab and a driver are the system. Offline maps help in the hills; live data helps when the driver is at the wrong gate of the villa.

Where the data actually goes

Canggu, Ubud, Uluwatu, and Seminyak are different drives, not different neighborhoods. A sunrise plan means leaving in the dark with a pin that still loads.

Which plan to buy

Buy the larger short plan. Navigation is the product, and you will use it every time you leave the hotel.

Practical notes

Cash for small warungs, cards for the rest. Plugs are type C and F. Rain rearranges the day, which you will learn from a message, not a window.
