AGUNG, is a personal driver & tourist guide which I hired for about 3 days. Hiring a driver helps for you to visit the destination you desire in haste if you don’t have much time.
Now this dude is way COOL. Not only is he knowledgeable about most places in Bali, he also ‘bargains’ prices for stuff which I wanted to buy. Meaning he was helping me to get local prices without going thru’ the usual bargaining hassle.
Agung hail from ubud and is in the travel & services industry for almost 6 years. He drives a Toyota ‘Kijang’ which can accommodate 7 people easily. His price I would say is ‘FAIR’. You travel less, you pay less & vice versa. He is dedicated in serving you at his best and he encourages you to fully utilize his services. His service level is above reasonable level I must say. He carries your shopping stuffs, escort you almost everywhere, punctual at all appointments and more important he is not monetary demanding. Besides this, he provides some complimentary stuff like bottle water, face towels, cigarettes if you are smoking, toll charges, parking fee, sarong (to wear when entering temples) and occasionally free meals are throw in when you hire this dude.
The only set back for this guy is he doesn’t know any girls in Bali! ; ) or else he would be a prefect guide. Hahahehe.
Anyway compare to other drivers I hired before, he is quite alright. A must try for those who generally need a ride, a cheap ‘bodyguard’, access to local price, knowledge for good exchange currency places, good knowledge for tourist area & etc
Agung plays by the rule “honesty is the best policy’. Cayala…sama lu Agung. Leave a Comment

: HAVING A DRIVER TO TAKE YOU AROUND BALI IS THE WAY TO GO..ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHERE TO GO AND THEY DON'T GET LOST AND WASTE TIME TRYING TO GET BACK ON THE PATH...ALSO THEY KNOW THE PLACE AND CULTURE. .THE AMAZING AMOUNT OF INFORMATION ABOUT BALI IS INVALUABLE!!!!!
PUTU ..THE DRIVER THAT TOOK ME MOST OF THE PLACES I WENT WAS SUPERB!! !!HE MADE IT FUN AND IT WAS A GREAT TIME HEARING HIS AMAZING EXPERIENCES OF BEING A DRIVER!!! : )
HE CHARGES $40 A DAY!! BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!!! Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

If you don't have your own transportation, you may need to rent a bike (US$4 a day) or use the service of locals who own cars.
As you shop along Jl Monkey Forest, you will always be asked if you need transport, to the point that sometimes I feel harassed.
If you are interested, tell them where you want to go and ask for a price. Always bargain downwards by 50% as a starting point or less before agreeing on a final price.
These are not public cabs and thus, I would recommend it only for short distances along the main roads. Theme: Car/Motor Home

 Sila with our sons at Ubud's
rice terraces by limwil
His car is very well maintained. I was worried about tracking beach sand into his clean car, but he was very nice about it. He was great with my 3 young boys. His knowledge of English is impressive, and he has a sense of humor, too! He showed us good restaurants, a fine art gallery, and he made sure we got to watch the Monkey and Fire dances. He is very generous with his time since he charges a flat rate even if we ended our day late at night. He also carried ice cold water: a necessity in warm weather! Also, while we enjoyed the beach that he took us to in Nusa Dua, we felt no worries leaving our belongings with him in his car such as our wallets and camera. Sila is truly trustworthy.
I was really upset with another driver we hired in Ubud (Sila was already booked that day, alas!) That driver whose name begins with P. brought us to tourist trap places where I suspect he would get a commission. He also did not have any water and he asked too many personal questions and interrupted our private conversation. He also would not drive us past 5 pm even if he charged the same rate as Sila.
So if you go to Ubud and need a driver, please do hire Sila: baliwithsila@yahoo.com or www.geocities.com/baliwithsila/
Since he goes out of his way to make you happy and is generous with his time, please be generous with your tip! (***Photo shows our sons with Sila with the breathtaking Ubud rice terraces in the background...)
