Bali Tourist Trap Tips by cokes Top 5 Page for this destination

Taxi at the Airport

When you arrive at the airport and get a porter to take your luggage. When they have to take your luggage to a taxi they take to you a taxi counter when you exit the building. Just tell them you don`t want to go there and just go to the drop off point where there is many taxi`s. Taking a taxi here is much cheaper then paying for a taxi from the taxi counter as there is many Blue Bird Taxi`s that await`s you.

Money Changers

Be warned as there is money changers all over the show and they are slick. Almost any shop changes money in Bali but anyway just watch out as a other guy I know was robbed twice in Bali when I was there in the space of 2 days. They would exchange 100US$ and give him a whole lot of IDR 20 000 bills. They put all the money together in one bundle and secretly drop money behind the counter so they give you less.

I descide to change money at the same money changer and I asked to count the money myself as they too wanted to give me IDR 20 000 bills all of the sudden they refuse to exchange the money for me.

I went to another photo shop for a less of a rate the guy gave me IDR 100 000 bills which was all good. Just be warned as well as they don`t want to changed bills thats torn , creased and old or they might just want to give you even a less rate if they agree to exchange the money.

Unique Suggestions: Count the money yourself if you they plan on giving you a whole bunch of small bills.
