Practical information for your trip

We recommend spending at least 7–10 days in Bali to explore different regions without rushing. With two weeks or more, you can discover the island’s cultural highlights, lush landscapes, waterfalls and quieter coastal areas.

The dry season, generally from April to October, is a popular time to visit Bali. It is ideal for exploring the island, enjoying its beaches and discovering its natural attractions.

You can explore Bali by scooter, private driver or local transport. A private driver is a convenient option for longer day trips, while a scooter offers more flexibility for shorter journeys if you are an experienced and appropriately licensed rider.

Some areas, such as Canggu, Seminyak and central Ubud, can get busy, especially during peak season. However, quieter villages, mountain regions and parts of the north and west offer a more peaceful side of the island.
