Are you dreaming of an alternative to the Aussie road trip for your next holiday? Asia offers many bargain holidays, and Bali is a favourite for Aussies thanks to shorter flight times and many direct options.

Visit Bali on your next holiday getaway

Bali is famous for its nightlife, hospitality and beaches. Aside from that, there are countless ceremonies and celebrations throughout the year to make your trip away memorable. If you’re still unconvinced, here are some more things you can do when you fly out to Bali:

Bali’s cultural scene

When you travel abroad, not only will you experience the unique food, music, dance and architecture that Bali offers, but you’ll have a chance to learn about the many festivals. These include the Omed-Omedan kissing festival and the parade before the Day of Silence.

Never-ending adventures

There are plenty of activities to keep you busy in Bali. Whether it’s surfing, a day at Aling-Aling Waterfall or the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, you will always find something new to do during your stay.

Natural beauty

Take the time to appreciate the country’s natural beauty in Bali’s mountains. Here, you can see lush greenery, scenic lakes, and breathe the fresh air and serenity that only nature can offer.

Nusa Penida

Unlike the other beaches in Bali, Nusa Penida is popular because it is less commercialised. This tiny island has natural wonders you can’t see anywhere else. Visitors can get to the island via a speedboat from Sanur. Stay for a few days before heading back to the glitz and glamour of Kuta.

Great accommodation options

Bali is famous for its luxurious resort and hotels with amazing infinity swimming pools and private beaches. Additionally, visitors can rent a villa for a more comfortable and homely experience.

Shop till you drop

There are ample shopping options in Bali ranging from traditional souvenirs to high-end designer clothes. The best part is that you’re sure to get a bargain with prices much lower compared to most countries. That’s why many tourists pack light and buy their clothing needs when they arrive. If you’re planning to buy up big, it’s a good idea to bring an extra suitcase or buy one along the way.

Bali is a place everyone should experience at least once in their lives. So, when you’re making plans for the trip, don’t forget to book everything in advance. That includes your plane tickets, accommodations, and of course, a long-term airport parking space. Leave your car behind at the airport so you can drive yourself to and from your flight.
