Kura Kura Bus Openbaar vervoer tussen Kuta en Ubud

Ik nam de shuttle van Ubud naar Kuta. De chauffeur is erg beleefd. De bus kwam op tijd en de reis verliep soepel. Omdat er maar 2 passagiers aan boord waren, was er geen gedoe. Het is een zeer goede optie als u de weg kent om het ophaalpunt op te halen en kleine bagage heeft. Hoewel er bus staat, was de auto een SUV. Betere optie voor lichte reizigers. Als u grote koffers bij u heeft, kunt u dit beter vermijden. Grab en Bluebird zijn niet toegestaan in Ubud, dus dit is de beste optie om onderhandelingen over de prijs met lokale taxichauffeurs te vermijden.

We booked online this shuttle service between Kuta and Ubud and get 30% discount. During our trip it is less crowded, as there were only 4 pasengers. On time at the pick up starting point at Lippo Mall Kuta and the returning from Puri Lukisan Museum Ubud. But Kura Kura bus is no the hop on and hop off tour bus (as compared to tour buses in South Korea) as they only allowed point to point, to and fro shuttle service. There are several stops at the tourist spots like bird park and zoo along the way but once you go down you have to wait for the hours of the return bus trip which is many hours to go. So we chose to spent the four to five hours at the last bus stop, that is Puri Lukisan Musuem and roaming around bored and aimless. Our suggestion is to make the trip worth and interesting for tourists, the bus company should re-schedule a little, like stop at Beachwalk for 20 minutes, make another two stops at Bird Park and Bali Zoo for 30 minutes each to let tourists alight and taking a few photo of the place, while the remining time will be for touring around Ubud at the last stop. By this way it will not affecting the operating hours and route of the bus but could get more passengers who like to have a sight of the tourist spots in Bali. Otherwise, tourists may choose to go for other cheaper options on this route like the regular public bus in Bali, the Teman Bus which charge quite low fare by using the transportation e-money card.

I’m really happy with this service. I took it from Ubud to Kuta and worked perfect. Bus was new and it follow the route as planned without inconvenience. Best thing is that it was half price of a taxi
