There are many places where you can hire a car from and range from 70,000rp to 140,000rp per day. We always hire a car and drive ourselves and have seen a lot of Bali this way. We don't use drivers a lot due to their reluctance sometimes to go where you want to go. For instance we tried to hire a driver to go from Legian to Mt Kintami, over to Singaraja and back to tanah Lot, and all the drivers said too far to go in one day, so we hired a car, and made it too Tanah Lot by sunset, since then we have always driven ourselves.
But we do use a driver sometimes but he is a Legian based driver, you would need someone based near where you are staying, expect to pay around 300,000 per day for a driver.
