Ways to get from the airport to Canggu

A taxi from the airport rank is useful if you prefer to arrange transport after landing. Follow airport signs to the official rank, use the authorised booking process and confirm the destination before leaving. During busy periods, you may need to wait.

Public transport can suit independent travellers travelling light who are comfortable with a less direct route. Services and connections can change, and Canggu is not served by a simple airport-to-door link, so check current airport information before setting out.

Hiring a car gives you flexibility for a wider Bali itinerary, but local traffic, navigation and parking can be challenging around Canggu. Check that your licence, insurance and rental arrangements meet current requirements before driving.

Booking a private transfer

After collecting your bags, meet your driver in the designated arrivals meeting area described in your booking. Have your accommodation name and address, flight details and a reachable phone ready. Sharing a messaging contact can help if the meeting point changes.

Tell the provider about delayed or changed flights as soon as possible. A flight number can help the driver monitor updates, but you should still check the provider's policy for late arrivals. State how many passengers and bags you have, including bulky sports equipment. Request suitable child seats in advance if needed, as availability varies and local arrangements may not match those at home.
