If you want to book a transfer from Bali Airport to your hotel or villa and keep the driver for the day, this is for you. This is especially useful if you are arriving early and cannot check-in for a few hours or want to go sightseeing instead of heading straight to your destination.
If you want to be picked up from the airport and go directly to your destination you can book a Bali Airport Transfer with Private Car & Driver.
Your driver meets you on arrival
Be met on arrival by one of my knowledgeable, English-speaking drivers and receive comprehensive, detailed instructions on navigating the airport and making contact with your personal driver straight after booking.
I have personally vetted all the drivers I work with. They text me when they arrive at the airport when they collect you after arrival, and again when you have been dropped off. I also email you his name, profile photo, vehicle photo and phone number to ensure your safety and comfort.
10/10 would recommend
The professionalism of the staff and ease of booking through Bali Holiday Secrets made the start of our holiday simple and stress free. The detailed information provided by email alongside clear communication resulted in a seem-less airport pick up (despite me mixing up the date!). Really impressed with the drivers. 10/10 would recommend.
Can I choose where to go and places to visit?
Absolutely. The whole point of hiring a private car and driver is to wherever you want.
You can plan your schedule directly with the driver when you meet or look through my posts on itineraries for day tours, attractions, temples, beach clubs and waterfalls beforehand. You can choose from some popular routes which my drivers are very knowledgeable, or you can choose to follow your own tour itinerary. We’re OK with whatever you decide and you can change your itinerary as the day progresses for no extra charge.
Will my driver wait for me outside the attractions?
Yes, of course. Your driver will drop you off, and where possible park close by and escort you to buy entry tickets or help arrange a local guide if appropriate. For really busy attractions he may have to drop you off at the entrance, then go and park further afield.
Before you are ready to leave you can text him ahead of time (say 10 -15 minutes) and he can come to pick you up at a prearranged spot. There is no extra charge for waiting as long as you like, so take your time and relax.
This is really helpful when visiting attractions that take a while or hanging out for a few hours at a beach club.
How long do I have my driver?
Just like hiring a private car and driver for the day, you have your driver for 10 hours from your arrival time. This is a pretty good deal when you consider that you will be met by your assigned driver even if your flight is late.
But it’s only fair that if your flight is 3 hours late, and your driver has been waiting all that time, that the clock starts from the booked arrival time.

Hello Michael,
We arrive late on the 27th and are staying at the hotel at the airport for the night before checking in to our hotel in Canggu on the evening of the 28th. We would like to book the airport transfer and day trip but aren’t sure how to process this as we will already be at the airport and don’t have the flight information to provide. We would also appreciate any recommendations for what to do on the day trip, we are flexible with timing but are unsure with travel time what is doable. Thank you so much!
Hi Cassidy,
That’s alright. You can simply fill out the booking form and put Bali Airport as your location. After booking you can share you exact location with your assigned driver.
In regards to recommendations, consider exploring Uluwatu (see my Uluwatu Day Tour for reference).
Or an Ubud Day Tour.
Safe travels,
Michael
HI Michael,
I came across your business while doing some research on Bali and after reading the reviews I have decided to make a booking. I have a 14hr layover in Bali on Saturday Dec 28th (from 10AM to Midnight) and wish to see some sights while I’m there. I would like to visit the Uluwatu temple and Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park and a couple other sights close by if possible. Do you think this is possible within the time I have there and is this something one of your guides can do? If yes then I’m happy to proceed. Would the process to meet your guide at arrivals? Can you also advise if I need a special permit to exit the airport on a layover?
Thanks,
Sumeet.
Hi Sumeet,
It’s possible to visit Uluwatu and back to Bali Airport in time for your flight.
If you choose the booking on this page, your driver can pick you up at arrivals, take you to explore Uluwatu, then back.
In this case for destination, simply select Kuta, and perhaps Bali Airport as the address. (Since you’ll be returning instead of transferring)
Safe travels,
Michael
Thanks for your quick response Michael. Will proceed as advised. I’ll reach out if if have any further questions.
Regards.
Hi Michael,
1. We would like to book an airport pickup (Oct 22nd) at midday, get taken to our accommodation in Ubud, check in etc. Then we would like to get taken to La Brisa in Canggu to spend a couple of hours (sunset) then get dropped back off at our accommodation in Ubud.
What should I select/do you suggest?
2. We would like a half day (5 to 6 hours) around Ubud on the 24th (e.g. 9am to 3pm or similar)
3. We would like airport drop off from Ubud on the 25th (flight leaves at 12:55pm)
How best to organize all this 🙂
Hi Clinton,
1) For your arrival day, Oct 22nd, go for the Bali Airport Transfer plus day tour (on this page).
2) For Oct 24th, go for the private car and driver – half day hire.
3) You’ll be booked a Transfer to Bali Airport on Oct 25th.
Safe travels,
Michael
Hi I’m after the opposite where we get picked up from the hotel and have a day out and get dropped off at the airport for the flight at 6-6.30pm how do I book this?
Hi Ceri,
You can just book a Private Car and Driver for the day and have your driver drop you at the airport after your tour.
I suggest sticking to South Bali (South Bali Day Tour) so you won’t stray too far from Bali Airport.
Safe travels,
Michael
Hi , I’m travelling to Seminyak today from Bedulu. My flight home on Wednesday is at 11pm. I was thinking of a day trip and then airport transfer.
It’s a long time between check out and flight.
Is this an option to get the most out of my last day?
Kind regards
Sharon
Hi Sharon,
You can book a Private Car and Driver for the day. And have your driver end your tour at Bali Airport.
I’m assuming your check-out is at 12:00pm. This means you should be at the airport by 9:00pm the latest.
You’ll have more than enough time to explore some more before you leave Bali!
Safe travels,
Michael
Hello Michael,
We land in Denpasar at 1145am are staying in Seminyak and have a dentist appointment in Denpasar same day at 3pm. Would we be able to be collected at airport taken to room drop luggage off then back into Denpasar for 3pm appointment wait around and return to Seminyak ? Is it possible to book airport collection and half day or would we be better off getting airport collection to hotel and then taxi or private car back to Denpasar for dentist and then taxi or private car back to hotel when we have finished at dentist?
Hi Jenelle,
You can book a Private Car & Driver Half Day Hire.
After booking, I’ll email you to grab your flight details so your driver will know when you arrive.
Safe travels,
Michael
Hi,
We are looking for x3 different trip 1) airport to Ubud, 2) Ubud to Nusa Dua via scenic stops (mini tour) 3) Nusa Dua to airport.
I can’t see a way to book this on your website, can you help?
Hi Kathryn,
Here are the links below:
Bali Airport Transfer to Ubud
Transfer to Bali Airport from Nusa Dua
For the Ubud to Nusa Dua transfer with a short tour.
You can either book a Bali private driver car & driver for the full day.
Or if you anticipate that you won’t need the entire day, you can book the Bali Private Car & Driver – Half Day Hire.
See you soon!
Safe travels,
Michael
Hi. We are 5 adults and one child. I want to book a private car for 6 people for our own day tours but we will have some luggage like stroller, backpacks etc. Do I need to book a minivan? if so, how do I book that without an airport transfer.
Please confirm. Thanks.
Hi Shradda,
Depends on how much luggage you guys have. If this isn’t for an airport transfer, I’m assuming you won’t be taking all of your luggage around with you during the day.
You can opt for booking a Private Car and Driver in Bali . I would suggest selecting the ‘Innova’ as it is a slightly large SUV.
Alternatively, if you do predict that you’ll be taking around much more luggage with you and you’ll need more space, you can book a Bali Minivan Rental here.
Hope this helps!
Safe travels,
Michael
Can’t book. Proceed to Secure Checkout button doesn’t do anything…
Hi,
Family will be transferring flight in Denpasar. We have about 5 to 6 hours between time arrived at airport and time departing. Wondering will u be recommending us to get out of airport for some sightseeing.
Regards
Hi Benjamin,
You could sneak out for a quick tour in South Bali closer to the airport.
These areas could include Seminyak, Kuta, Nusa Dua, Sanur, and perhaps even Uluwatu.
Safe travels,
Michael
Hello Michael –
We have a late flight on 25 Oct. We need to leave our Ubud hotel at noon and be at the airport around 7pm. We really don’t have any idea what to do in the 7 hours in between. Are you able to make any recommendations and help us with a booking? We’ve left it a bit late so we understand if this isn’t possible.
Kind regards
Nancy
Hi Nancy,
I’ve replied to your email.

Hi Michael, we will land Bali airport roughly 2:00PM and our hotel is in Ubud. But we want to have a tour to Tanah Lot Temple first before we get to the hotel and have dinner somewhere and then go to our hotel in Ubud early evening time. Can we book this airport transfer and day tour option? Since probably we will meet the driver after 3:00PM, not sure if any of your driver is willing to do a job like that late of the day? Please kindly advise. Thanks
Hi Min,
The timing should be fine. I can organize available drivers to suit your trip. Not a problem.
Safe travels,
Michael
Hello,
Is it possible to make a custom airport pick up and tour? We have our family arriving from different part of the world and need one airport pick up 3-4 hours before the next. We thought we could do a small tour while we waited for the second party to arrive.
I cant arrange this via the above booking menu.
Cheers
Cassian
Hi Cassian, yes you can do that with the above booking form. Choose your final destination for your initial airport transfer booking, go on tour for a few hours, go back to the airport to pick up more of your family, and then head to your destination. Just tell your driver when you arrive what the plan is and you will be fine.
Safe travels, Michael
Hello,
Great website! I’m just wondering if it’s safe to leave the luggage in the car while we are on the day tour or is it best to drop off the luggage first if we’ve being picked up at the airport?
Hi Andrew, you can feel safe leaving your luggage with your driver.
Safe travels, Michael
