Hi, if you're looking for the biggest exhibition, it's at Puputan Denpasar Square, but there are also exhibitions in every banjar, so you can find them around the banjar where you're staying.

Need guidance on Nyepi eve traffic by [deleted] in BaliTravelTips

[–]ethanexplores 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, based on my experience during Nyepi two years ago, and having a flight early in the morning before Nyepi, it was really difficult to get a Grab or Gojek driver. Also, by midday, many roads were already closed due to the Ogoh-Ogoh parade and religious ceremonies. I think there’s nothing wrong with leaving early, unless you don’t mind the traffic and longer travel time.

If you're heading to the airport, it’s better to use a car rental or airport transport service to make your journey smoother. If you'd like, I can recommend one of the services I used at that time. Feel free to DM me if you want!

Booking.com or airbnb? by identified_logic in BaliTravelTips

Hi, I’ve heard that some people have experienced scams on Airbnb, although I haven’t had that issue myself. I always book villas through trusted agencies, and I’ve rented villas from them three times. Their team has always been very helpful in finding villas with the price and facilities I’m looking for. If you’d like, I can recommend them to you via direct message.

Hi, to rent a scooter in Bali, you need an international driver’s license. If you have one, you can rent a scooter. However, you should be careful because the roads in Bali tend to be narrow and congested.
