Bus & Coach Hire in Indonesia

Indonesia is an archipelago of over 17,000 islands, and its coach hire market reflects that complexity. The two dominant markets for international groups are Bali -- one of the world's most visited island destinations -- and Java, home to Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and the Borobudur and Prambanan temple complexes. Bali's Ngurah Rai International (DPS) is the primary leisure gateway; Jakarta's Soekarno-Hatta (CGK) is the country's main international hub. Between the major islands of Java and Bali, coaches can use the Banyuwangi-Gilimanuk ferry on the Bali Strait. For Lombok, Flores, and other islands, vehicles must be chartered locally after flying in.

Indonesian tourist transport operators are licensed by the Ministry of Transportation. Indonesia drives on the left. Traffic in Jakarta is severe -- the city is consistently among the world's most congested -- and local drivers are essential. Bali's main tourist corridor (airport, Kuta, Seminyak, Ubud, Nusa Dua) is well-served, but many temple roads and village lanes require smaller vehicles. Indonesia uses the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR). Peak season for Bali runs July to August and December to January; the island's shoulder season (May, June, September) offers comfortable touring conditions with less traffic.
