There are no motorised vehicles on Gili Trawangan, which is one of the many things that make it such a tranquil and relaxing island.
CIMODO
There are 36 registered horse carts locally known as “cidomo” on the island.
The cidomo are very handy for taking you to your hotel or guesthouse once you arrive, especially if you have large or heavy luggage, or if you haven’t booked a room yet. The drivers will take you around and help find accommodation for you.
You can also hire a cidomo to take you around the island, out to dinner, or just down the road if the mood takes you!
The cidomo tend to be a favourite with young children, and you can arrange for the driver to take the ‘little ones’ for a ride, while you have a few minutes of peace to yourself on the beach!
If you need a cidomo early in the morning or after 6 pm, it’s best to make arrangements with one of the drivers ahead of time.

BICYCLES
There are several bicycle rental places around the island where you can hire by the hour, half day or day.
ON FOOT
The island itself is only 8km all around, and as most of the island’s hotels, restaurants, dive shops and beaches are concentrated along a 2km strip, everything is very easily accessible on foot.
A walk around the island is a lovely way to spend the afternoon and if timed properly, you can catch a stunning sunset over Bali’s Mt. Agung. (Remember to bring a torch with you, as there is no street lighting to guide you back.)
