Is Grab expensive in Bali?

Grab is CHEAP. You can rent mopeds from Grab too which is about half the price of a car and generally quicker. You can even rent drivers by the hour from 4 hours to 10 hours to take you around all of Bali which is great. When you fill a car that fits 6, it works out like 2 pounds a day for a driver.
