Cheap Vacation Tips to Bali for Backpacker

Cheap Vacation Tips to Bali for Backpacker - Bali is known as a paradise for tourists, both local and foreign. The reason is, the Island of the Gods offers a million attractive tourist objects, from beautiful beaches, well-preserved local culture, to tempting shopping and culinary tours.

Because it is the main tourist destination in Indonesia, having a vacation to Bali definitely costs a fortune. Apart from transportation, excess pocket money is also needed for lodging, stomach matters, and souvenirs. However, if you have a backpacker-style vacation to Bali, the costs required can be saved up to 50%. Interested? So, here are some tips for a backpacker-style vacation to Bali.

Avoid Holidays on National Holidays

On national holidays, for example Christmas, New Year, Eid, or the school holidays will make your holidays extravagant. This is because the price of transportation tickets (planes, trains, buses), food prices, lodging rates, and entrance tickets to tourist attractions will increase two to three times the normal price. In addition, your trip will be less pleasant with the crowd of tourists visiting.

Bring Sufficient Goods

As a backpacker, carrying enough (or considered important) items is the main point. Bringing what you need will make it easier for you to go everywhere because it is more compact.

Find Cheap Lodging

Even though lodging in Bali seems expensive, not all accommodations have exorbitant rental rates. Many low-cost inns are strategic because they are located near tourist attractions. In Denpasar, for example, you can stay for short or long term at Apartemen Di Bali - The Ambengan Tenten with many facilities and very affordable price.

Find Cheap Transportation

To go to Bali, it is highly recommended to use the airplane transportation mode. The reason is, compared to buses or trains, planes often hold cheap promos to Bali. One of the airlines that quite often holds cheap promotions is AirAsia. In fact, the promo ticket can touch the price of Rp. 99,000 for a one-time trip to Bali.

Once in Bali, you can save money by renting a motorbike or car (if you're in a group). In addition, you can also use mass transportation modes such as bemo, gig, or Trans Sabargita buses at affordable rates.

Visit Cheap Tourist Attractions

In Bali, there are many interesting tourist objects that won't drain your money too deep, including Kuta Beach, Legian Beach, and Seminyak Beach. If you are bored with the beach, you can visit Tanah Lot with an entrance ticket of only Rp. 15,000. In addition, there is also a Banjar hot spring located in Banjar Village, Buleleng. To be able to enjoy hot water here, visitors are only charged an entrance ticket of IDR 5,000.
