I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport, also known as Denpasar International Airport, is Bali's main international gateway, situated 13 kilometres from Downtown Denpasar. Travel time from the airport to the city centre ranges between 30 and 45 minutes.
Official airport taxis operate on a fixed price list based on the destination, with counters located just outside the duty-free area.
Public transportation options from the airport include shuttle buses operated by Trans Sarbagita, which connect the airport to various destinations on the island. These buses are inexpensive but run infrequently. Alternatively, minibuses known as 'bemo' are available and travel throughout Bali, including to and from the airport. While these minibuses are also low-cost, their drivers often charge tourists higher fares, making the price difference with taxis minimal. As a result, many travellers find taking a taxi to be more convenient.

Public Transport
Numerous bemos (minibuses) operate on fixed routes around the city and the rest of the island, leaving when full and stopping anywhere on their route on request. Most foreigners find the system confusing and find haggling over fares challenging. There are also buses connecting the bigger cities around the island, operating mostly during the daytime. Both buses and bemos can be stopped anywhere along their routes.

Taxi
Blue and yellow city taxis can be hailed on the street, at numerous taxi ranks, or called from your hotel or restaurant. They are cheap by international standards and are much more convenient than bemos, or mini-buses. However, be prepared to haggle over fares as taxi meters have failed to keep pace with inflation. Many drivers speak a little English.
Uber does not operate in Bali. The ride-sharing apps currently available in Bali are Grab and Gojek.
