Hi there
I am going to be in Bali for a week in August, to round off a volcano tour I am taking across Java.
I am very interested in staying at Strawberry Hill Hotel in the Bedugul area for the duration of my visit, however as I am a non-driver I am wondering if being in the Bedugul area will pose any problems sourcing transport.
My primary motivation in travelling is landscape photography, so I am aiming to visit Mount Agung (maybe doing the easier overnight climb for some dawn photography if feasible), Lempuyang Temple and the obligatory Tanah Lot (hopefully either dawn or dusk), along with a few places in and around Bedugul itself such as the Bali Botanical Gardens (aiming to do some macro insect photography), Jatiluwih, Munuk Waterfall and Pura Ulun Danu Bratan.
It does sound like a lot to be doing over a week, so I am very keen for any advice about what I should prioritise (and alternative suggestions for scenic photography - especially off the beaten path - would be most welcome!).
Would Bedugul be an appropriate place to base myself to do some exploration? Would it be worth pre-booking a driver for a week?
Thanks in advance for any help!
