Connectivity

Staying connected is essential, especially when navigating public transport. Esimjo provides reliable and affordable data coverage throughout Bali. You can purchase and activate your eSIM before your trip, ensuring you're online as soon as you arrive. Pro Tip: Choose an Esimjo data plan that suits your needs in terms of duration and data allowance to avoid any unexpected charges.

Navigating Public Transport

While Bali doesn't have an extensive public transport system, there are several options:

• Buses: Kura-Kura buses are a cost-effective option for traveling between major tourist areas.
• Taxis and Motorbike Taxis: Readily available, but ensure the driver uses a meter or agree on a price before starting your journey.
• Gojek and Grab: Ride-sharing apps are popular and convenient.

Remember you have your Esimjo data ready so you can book your next ride or search for directions with ease.
