Perama bus times in Candi Dasa
Perama bus does a service all over Bali, hitting most of the touriat spots. It also can arrange trips to Lombok and Sumbawa. Perama is not a tour bus, in that it does not do guided tours or show you historical sites. Perama is a point to point bus service, aimed at tourists. It differs from the local bemo buses, in that it has posted routes, schedules and prices.

Backpacking in Bali
To get into the backpacking mentality, you have to think longterm. Backpackers are often on a year long, around the world trip. All over the world, guesthouses and youth hostels are the places backpackers aim for, simplicity and cost being the key. Even as I get older, I still feel most comfortable checking into a cheap guest house in Bali, as its low stress, and I feel as though I have the time to take it easy, explore, and do whatever without the meter running to fast.

Perama buses from Tulamben in East Bali
Exploring the East Coast around the Tulamben area, its always better to get your own transport, whether it be a car or motorbike. Check out a few places in the Kuta area, negotiate and you can be on your way within 20 minutes.

Arriving in Bali and heading to Ubud
Most visitors to Bali, head to the Kuta / Seminyak area, on their first day here. Kuta is just 2 miles from the airport, and the big beachfront hotels in Tuban, are just a mile away. Some people however, like my friends from Oregon, have never been to Kuta, and instead head straight to Ubud, preferring the quieter pace. Just how easy is this to do stepping off a plane in Bali?

Senggigi: The gateway to Lombok
Visitors to Bali, as well as expats sometimes look for an close alternative, to the Bali beach scene. One option is Senggigi Lombok.
An old copy of the Indonesia Handbook, from 1991 has this description:
The coral and snorkeling at this popular beach area, 6km north of Ampenan, is fantastic-4 straight kms of pure white sand, blue-green sea, and no crowds.

Getting around Bali
Bali is a relatively small island, which makes it very accessible. When you compare Bali to a place like Thailand, Bali has way more to offer people on a short term holiday. Both places have beaches, temples, mountains, nightlife and culture. The things is in Bali you can get from the beach to the mountains in 2 hours driving, whereas in Thailand you are looking at a 1,000km trip by plane.
