Does the airport taxi run late? Any reliable taxi companies like silver bird (or was it blue bird) like in Jakarta?

bluebird is the most reliable. But there are alot of imitation with slightly the same colour and the bird logo design.

But in airport vicinity, you will not find any metered taxi.

you will need to walk out towards the main road outside the "parking tol" booth.

Where do you recommend to stay in Kuta and Ubud?

Thinking :
Kuta - Grand Mega Resort & Spa Bali
Ubub - Tegal Sari but need to move between room each day.

Any other good recommendation?

I had to do the same for tegal sari. Actually does help a lot. Lol in the end we didnt really do much packing when we goin back kl.

Anyway, we just tell front desk that we are changing room and ask them move our luggage then we went out and just goto the new room.

I really like ubud very much. It's very peaceful and quiet. Compared to kuta, it's just traffic jam, shopping and clubs.

Eeps! Tried googling some pics based on your tips above and very hard to differentiate leh.

The blue colours are almost same-same and the bird logo slight differences only.

indeed, the colour is the hardest. Especially for me, during night time. the blue is like same.

i actually took twice bluebird and once non bluebird. I asked non bluebird if meter, he said ok. At first i was quite skeptical about its meter (some said they can tune the meter =.=)

My proposed itinerary. Any suggestions if it's feasible, especially for Day 3? Also which hotel location will be the best to accommodate this schedule? I guess the ideal will be 1st day in a hotel in Jimbaran, while 2nd and 3rd day at a hotel in Ubud? I am looking for straight 3-days stay at a same hotel if possible. Thanks a lot nod.gif


Day 1
Arrival at airport at 2pm
Garuda Wisnu Kencana (short stop to take photo)
Uluwatu - for sunset
Jimbaran - dinner

Day 2
Taman Ayun Temple
Bedugul - Pura Ulun Danu Bratan
Tanah Lot - sunset

Day 3
Paddy rice terraces Tegalalang (short stop to take photo)
Tampak Siring - short stop
Kintamani - Pura Ulun Danu Batur
Besaikh Temple
Tirta Gangga Water Palace

Day 4
Free and easy
Sukawati?
Reach airport around 12pm. Flight at 2pm

Cant comment about the room. My hotel i stayed is just next to tune.
So location wise is actually quite good.

Walking distance towards Kuta Beach/Hardrock.
Shops are just around.

Just alil walking distance towards jalan legian. But its walkable.

But, it's probably the same like every other Tune Hotel, good location, small & cosy.
