Why a private driver in Canggu?

Canggu's own beaches are walkable, but everything that makes a Bali trip — Tanah Lot just up the coast, Uluwatu's sunset temple, a Ubud day trip, Mount Batur at sunrise — needs a car. Grab-and-go scooters are fine for short hops, but for day trips and families a private driver is the comfortable, fixed-price option, no surge pricing on busy weekends.
