Plan your scooter rental around Nyepi

Because vehicles cannot be used on public roads during Nyepi, plan pick-up and return of your scooter or car outside that day. A practical sequence:

1. Start your rental the day before Nyepi, so you have transport for shopping.
2. Return the vehicle once normal conditions resume, as per the official announcement.
3. Remember the minimum rental of 2 days when building your schedule.
