Bali Travel Guide for First-Timers. Ginawa ko na ang mga mali para hindi niyo na magawa 😬.

1. Flights - Booked my air tickets 3 weeks prior to my flights kaya mahal. Roundtrip regular fare ₱10,200. Kaya kapag may seat sale is wag na kayong magpatumpik tumpik pang magbook kc nasa 3-5k lang kapag piso fare and kapag discounted/flash sale naman is nasa 5-8k lang. Bali is great to visit naman all year round.

2. Forex/Cash Withdrawals/Payments - Mas maganda U$ Dollars ang ipapapalit mo dun kesa other currencies and BNI (Bank Negara Indonesia) ang may magandang exchange rate and ATM withrawals. Sa airport meron na cya. Use your GCash or SeaBank debit card for ATM withdrawals and payments sa shopping, dining and anything na pwedeng pambayad ay card dahil sa zero foreign exchange fee. Kapag withrawals naman is 100 pesos lang ang withrawal charge. Withdrawhin mo na yung maximum na 2.5M Rupiah na around 8,500 Pesos para isang withdrawal fee na lang. Halos parehas lang ang GCash and SeaBank. Lamang lang si SeaBank dahil sa may CashBack ito.

3. Internet Sim - Merong mga available sa shopee, lazada and klook. Yung sa akin bumili ako sa suki ko sa shopee ₱327 lang for 5 days and 1.2GB/day https://invl.me/clmpjxu kaso hindi gumana this time, good thing naman kay seller is madaling kausap. Nirefund nya. NagGcash sya nung refund ko. Ayun bumili na lang ako sa airport ng sim. So madaming nagaalok sa Airport ng simcard. Hanapin nyo yung Telcomsel/Tsel. Sila yung pinakamura. 25GB for 30days is nasa ₱676 compared sa iba na nasa ₱845.

4. Transportation - Download Gojek, eto yung local ride-hailing app nila na motorcycle or car though meron din namang Grab dun. Always book your ride sa app kc mura and walang kyemeng tawaran. Mas maganda is link your credit card as payment para automatic na. Pwede rin namang cash payment kaso ang mahirap kapag cash is yung sukli. Nung una kc is cash ang mode of payment ko kaso dahil malalaki ang pera nila dun is hirap ang rider sa pangsukli or baka diskarte na lang nila yun. Hehe. Kc for 35k Rupiah na gojek motorcycle ride ko from airport is 100k rupiah ang pinang bayad ko tapos sinuklian na lang ako ng 50k rupiah kc wala na daw cyang barya so bale naging automatic tip ko is 15k rupiah. Sapilitang tip tuloy. Pwede ka rin namang magrent ng motorbikes kung matagal ka dun sa Bali at kung talagang bihasa ka sa traffic at mga lubak na daan.

5. Accommodation - Medyo nagsplurge ako sa accommodation. Kc sabi ko Birthday ko naman. So yung pinili ko is maganda ang facilities like may swimming pool, jacuzzi, breakfast included, free massage, free use of gym, free yoga, movie nights, may sariling bar at resto etc. Kaso 1 day ko lang naenjoy ang mga facilities at yun yung pag 4th day na. Yung first 3 days kc is tour ko and yung 5th and last day naman is flight back to manila ng 1am. Yung mga tour is usually nagsisimula ng 6am tapos nakakauwi ka ng ng accommodation ng 7-8pm dahil malalayo ang mga tourist spots at super traffic pa. Dzai yung free breakfast is 7am to 12pm lang 😲. Karamihan ng facilities and freebies is open/available lang ng 7am to 6pm. So thank you na lang 😞 . Kaya kung saglit lang kayo sa bali is yung basic accommodation lang kunin nyo kc mura lang and most of the time is nasa labas naman kayo doing the Bali’s Regular tour. Yung area ng accommodation is depende sa trip mo. Kung gusto mo ng party party/surfing is sa Canggu or Seminyak ka, kung nice beaches naman is sa Uluwatu ka then kapag Nature trip like mountains and temples and trip mo is sa Ubud area ka and yung pinakamura na area is Kuta, city vibes cya and puro retirees ang nagiistay dun. Yung bali is malaki cya. Like 5 times larger pala cya than Hong Kong nung ginoogle ko. Hindi cya tulad ng Boracay, Siquijor or Siargao na pwedeng malibot ng isang araw. Kaya yung karamihan dun months ang stay sa Bali at paiba iba ng lugar ng accommodation para iwas sa traffic. Like eenjoyin muna nila yung Seminyak town for a week then lipat na sila ng ibang town like Canggu another 1 week ganern then other town nanaman.
