- Download ride-hailing apps like Grab or Gojek for transparent, hassle-free car and motorbike taxi fares, especially in high-traffic destinations like Bali and Jakarta.
- Always use your right hand when giving or receiving items and eating, and wear a sarong and sash when entering sacred temples across Bali and Java.
