How to Get the Official Taxi

  1. After customs, follow signs to the Taxi Voucher counter inside the Arrivals hall.
  2. Tell the agent your destination and pay the fixed voucher rate (cash or card).
  3. You'll be given a printed voucher and escorted to your taxi by the coordinator.
  4. Hand the driver the voucher at the end — no additional payment unless you went through the toll road.

Grab & Gojek from Bali Airport

Grab and Gojek are typically 30–50% cheaper than the official taxi cooperative. However, you must walk to the designated ride-hailing pick-up zone located on the ground floor of the multi-storey car park — about a 5-minute walk from the terminal (follow "Online Taxi" signs).

Grab to Kuta
IDR 45,000–60,000
Grab to Seminyak
IDR 60,000–80,000
Grab to Ubud
IDR 160,000–200,000
Grab to Canggu
IDR 85,000–110,000

Grab/Gojek prices vary by demand and time. Prices higher during Nyepi (Balinese New Year) and peak season.

Scam Tips

  • Don't accept taxi offers from people approaching you at baggage claim — go to the official counter
  • If a driver asks for more than the voucher rate, refuse — show the voucher and walk away
  • Avoid unlicensed drivers outside the airport perimeter who approach with signs
  • For Grab/Gojek, confirm the driver's plate number matches the app before getting in

FAQ

Is Grab allowed inside Bali airport?

Not in the main terminal. Grab operates from the designated online taxi zone in the car park. Walk there after collecting bags — it adds 5 min but saves 30–50%.

Can I negotiate the official taxi price?

No — official taxi prices are fixed and non-negotiable. That's the benefit: no haggling, no surprises.

How long is the taxi ride to Ubud?

Around 60–90 min depending on traffic, especially through Denpasar and Batubulan. Traffic can be heavy 07:00–09:00 and 17:00–19:00.

Is there a bus from Bali airport?

Yes — Damri bus serves Denpasar Bus Station and Kuta (about IDR 30,000–50,000). It's slow and infrequent. Best for budget travellers heading to Kuta or Denpasar, not Ubud or Seminyak.
