Got Questions?

We've got the answers to keep your mind at ease.

Do I need a visa before arriving in Bali?

Most travelers from eligible countries can get a Visa on Arrival (VoA) valid for 30 days right at the airport. However, travel rules can change frequently. We highly recommend checking with the official Indonesian embassy website in your home country a few weeks before departure to ensure you have the most up-to-date requirements.

Are there any mandatory vaccinations for entry?

While there are generally no mandatory vaccinations required for entry into Indonesia, health professionals often recommend being up-to-date on standard shots such as Hepatitis A and Typhoid. If you plan to visit rural areas, additional precautions may be advised. Always consult your personal doctor or a travel clinic for personalized medical advice.

What is the climate like throughout the year?

Bali enjoys a beautiful tropical climate year-round, with warm temperatures averaging 27°C (80°F). The year is divided into two main seasons: the dry season runs from April to October, bringing sunny and breezy days. The wet season, from November to March, is more humid and brings regular, though usually brief, tropical downpours.

Should I tip for services in Bali?

Tipping is not strictly mandatory, but it is highly appreciated. A 10% tip at restaurants is standard if a service charge hasn't already been added. For private drivers or tour guides, a small gratuity of around $2-$5 USD per day goes a long way in showing your gratitude for their excellent hospitality.

How reliable is the internet connection?

Wi-Fi is incredibly widely available across hotels, cafes, and restaurants, especially in major tourist hubs. For seamless connectivity on the go, you can easily purchase a local physical SIM card at the airport or set up a travel eSIM on your phone prior to arrival for affordable 4G/5G data.

Are ATMs easily accessible across the island?

Yes, ATMs are ubiquitous in popular areas like Seminyak, Kuta, Ubud, and Canggu. Most accept major international cards (Visa/Mastercard). However, if you are traveling to more remote regions or the neighboring Nusa Islands, we strongly advise withdrawing enough cash beforehand, as machines can be scarce or occasionally run out of cash.

Is it safe to drink the tap water?

No, drinking tap water in Bali is generally not recommended for foreigners. We advise sticking to bottled or properly filtered water, which is generously provided at most hotels and villas. It is perfectly fine to brush your teeth or shower with tap water without any issues.
