Bali in a day: Some tips

  • To prepare for your trip, you may arrange in advance with a local driver or guide. Bali is wide and roads are difficult to move. If there is only one day, you will not have enough time to find.
  • Remember to bring your local currency, Indonesian Rupee (IDR, 1IDR = 0.0001 dollar) due to you can’t find ATMs and money changers in many places.
  • The tip is not required, but if you can “boa” at the restaurant or other services (fees range from 10 to 50 thousand IDR), especially in many places no request your service money (Service charges).
  • When entering the temple, you should remember that your knee and shoulder are not naked. You should wear a sarong (or a dress shirt), otherwise, you can borrow (rent) at the temple entrances. When you see a group is praying, you should remember to go behind them.
  • The Bali people do not care about you if you are taking pictures of them, but it would be more comfortable if you ask them permission before taking them.
