Bali Holidays Travel Information

There are regular flights from major UK airports into Denpasar in Bali, but no non-stop journeys.

Currency: Indonesian Rupiah
Time difference: GMT +7
Flight time from the UK: 19-22 hours is typical
Airport Information: I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar is the only commercial airport in Bali. Transfers to southern beach resorts are quick (around 1 hour) and Ubud can be reached in 2-3 hours dependent on traffic
Visa: Visa on Arrival (US$35 payable by cash/card)
Language: Bahasa Indonesian & English is widely spoken, but Balinese is the native language
Getting around: Transportation is easily available for local journeys - either metered or by negotiation in advance
Weather: Wondering when to visit Bali? The dryer months to visit are from May - October, with the main rainfall occurring December - February after which the paddy fields of Ubud and interior of Bali can be a vibrant green!
Multicentres: Although Ubud is only a short (1-2 hour) journey from most beach resorts in the south of Bali, we recommend a stay in the cultural heart of Bali to truly get a handle on the incredible culture of this beautiful island! You can also combine with a stay on the quieter and calmer beaches of northern Bali or the beautiful Bali Barat National Park in Menjangan, North West Bali
Hotel check in/check out times: Vary from hotel to hotel, but tend to allow check-in from 16:00 and check-out at 11:00. Please check with your consultant for specific times, and they can advise late check-out/early check-in rates if required. Most hotels will store luggage and allow you to use facilities if you would prefer not to do this.
National drink: Arak (rice wine) is widely available, but we recommend trying some of the incredible local fresh fruit juices
National dish: Nasi Goreng is the national dish of Indonesia, but there are many Balinese specialities like Babli Guling (Roast Suckling Pig)

Travel Tips & Advice for Bali Holidays

Bali Attractions

While Bali’s natural wonders tend to attract the crowds, there are also an array of unique attractions that simply can’t be missed during your stay. Make the most of your holiday with a trip to one of the many temples, including the sacred Uluwatu temple and Tanah Lot. The peaceful atmosphere of these historic places of worship is like no other, although the cheeky Macaque monkeys that call them home bring a playful element to the trip. The Tegalang Rice Terraces are another iconic spot, with photogenic fields of rice paddies to explore and even adventurous zip line activities to try your hand at during your visit.

Bali Food & Drink

When it comes to food, Bali has plenty to brag about. Make it your mission to sample the island's dishes, most of which are created using fresh ingredients sourced from the land itself. Don’t worry if you’re a picky eater, as there’s a delightful bounty of delicacies to choose from. Expect to find traditional Nasi Goreng restaurants serving Indonesian stir-fried rice, as well as American, European and Middle-Eastern, inspired foodie spots, all of which are guaranteed to leave you happily satisfied.

Bali Activities

Bali plays host to a whole new world of exhilarating sports and activities. If you're looking for something to share on your Instagram feed, head to Bali Swing located further inland on the island. This park allows you to sit on a large swing that flies out over the canyon and back, offering incredible views below and an exhilarating ride at the same time. Alternatively, plan a day on the beach where you can try out a range of watersports from donning a snorkel and floating on the water to see the marine life below to climbing on a jet ski and riding the waves. There's much more to a holiday in Bali than lounging on its beaches – although we certainly recommend you do this too!
