Your driver, your route

Private Car with Driver on Nusa Penida

About this experience

This one starts on the island. The boat from Bali is not included, so you book your own crossing (the Sanur fast boat is the easy pairing) and the driver meets you at the port or your hotel on Nusa Penida. The price is from $27 per person, and the car takes up to 5 passengers, or 4 with luggage. There is no Grab, Gojek or metered taxi on the island, so a booked driver is the simplest way around if you do not ride a scooter.

Pick the length with the roads in mind. The half day runs up to 6 hours and covers the east or the west, not both. The full day runs up to 8 hours, and extra time costs IDR 100,000 an hour in cash to the driver. The roads are narrow, steep and patched, and road works near some beaches cause delays, so one side done well beats both sides rushed. On the west: Kelingking Beach, Broken Beach, Angel's Billabong and Crystal Bay. On the east: Diamond Beach, Atuh Beach and the Tree House. The driver also suggests stops, and guests mention Tembeling Beach and a turtle sanctuary.

What you pay on the day: the island retribution of IDR 25,000 per person if you have just arrived, entrance fees (IDR 25,000 per adult at most attractions under the 2026 Klungkung Regency rules, including the Kelingking booth), parking (IDR 10,000 for a car at Kelingking), food, drinks and tips. The one exception is the Full-Day East & West With Ticket option, which includes the entrance fees. Bring swimwear, a towel, a change of clothes and cash.

  • Private air-conditioned car and local driver, fuel included
  • Pickup at the Nusa Penida port or your hotel
  • Seats up to 5 passengers, or 4 with luggage
  • Half day for one coast, or a full day up to 8 hours

    On the west, Kelingking before the midday crowds; on the east, Diamond Beach and Atuh Beach side by side.

  4. MiddayLunch where you like

    Food is not included, so you choose the warung. Drivers know the places near each viewpoint.

  5. AfternoonMore stops at your pace

    Broken Beach and Angel's Billabong, Crystal Bay, or the Tree House above the islets. Stay longer where you like it.

  6. End of the dayBack to the port or your hotel

    Drop-off for the last boats to Sanur, which leave at about 17:00, or at your hotel. Extra time is IDR 100,000 an hour in cash.

What guests say

★★★★★

We had an amazing experience with our tour guide, Darma! He arrived ahead of time, which was such a great start to the day. We explored both the east and west sides, and Darma even recommended visiting Tembeling Beach, which was not part of the original itinerary. It turned out to be the absolute highlight of our trip! Darma was also fantastic at capturing photos and videos, making sure we had plenty of beautiful memories to take home.

Tips before you book

  • Match your arrival port to your side. Banjar Nyuh near Toyapakeh is handy for the west coast, Sampalan and Buyuk for the east, per nusapenida.org.
  • Carry small rupiah notes. Retribution, entrance tickets and parking are paid as you go unless you pick the option with tickets.
  • Want both coasts? Take the full day and start early, or split them over two days if you are staying over.
  • Book your return boat with an hour of slack. Roads and road works slow things down, and the last boats to Sanur leave at about 17:00.
  • Read the 2026 Nusa Penida fees so you know what to carry on the day.
