G'day Don,
Alex will do all of the driving for you and knows the island like the back of his hand. He has a late model Toyota Kijang that can seat 7 people easily or 2(my wife & I) in total comfort.
Alex will very respectfully and very trustingly negotiate a fee depending how far & how long.
Alex would not accept ANY money from me throughout our stay. He SUGGESTED that if we were happy with his service we Might leave an envelope for him at the end of our stay. This was great because there was no way he could have ripped us off even if he wanted to. It was also very rewarding to leave a larger than usual envelope for him due to his far better than usual service.
I now classify him as a brother & speak regularly. Treat him well & you will be in the safest of hands that will allow you to relax & enjoy your time in Bali without fear of ripoff.
Hope this helps mate, Kind regards, Lachlan
