Embark on an unforgettable journey through Bali, where you'll be captivated by its pristine beaches, jungle waterfalls, volcano views, lush rice fields, and vibrant cultures - a genuine paradise for adventurous souls. After spending several months in Bali, I can say that there is something for everyone, as it offers a variety of activities! Whether you want to relax, party all night long, or explore the island, Bali truly has it all! The best time to visit Bali is between April and October, the island's dry season. Your budget has to take into consideration whether you move around the island with a driver or by renting motorbikes. Renting motorbikes allows for greater flexibility in exploring more places, which is particularly advantageous if your time on the island is limited. Cars can get stuck in traffic, wasting valuable time. If you choose to ride, ensure you wear helmets and carry your international driver's license to avoid fines. Here are three rules to ensure you enjoy your Bali trip to the fullest: 1. Always Bargain: Whether you're shopping at markets or hiring services, bargaining is a common practice in Bali. It's a fun way to engage with locals and often results in getting a better deal. 2. Explore Beyond Tourist Attractions: To experience the authentic Bali, avoid relying solely on mainstream travel guides. Instead of googling "what to see in Bali," consider exploring lesser-known spots recommended by locals or venturing off the beaten path. 3. Carry a Sarong: A sarong is not just a piece of clothing in Bali; it's a versatile accessory. You'll need it for visiting temples, as it's a sign of respect to cover your legs, and it can also serve as a beach towel or a makeshift blanket during your adventures. Always have one handy to respect local customs and stay comfortable throughout your journey. The itinerary provides detailed travel information on specific locations, including Ubud, Seminyak, Canggu and Uluwatu, and recommended day trips to other surrounding areas and nearby islands. Here's a preview of what awaits you in my Ultimate Bali Travel Guide!

We do love a good local market! Being 'in town' on the right day to catch market day is crucial - sometimes they're daily (or nightly!), some are on Saturdays or Sundays, and some are only on every second weekend or so. So do plan ahead - and don't miss out! We love wandering around and checking out the local products and wares - especially the food!! We're pretty biased and think Salamanca Market in Lutruwita/Tasmania is the best market in the world! Yesssss we know Barcelona's La Rambla Market is pretty darn impressive and we've been to some epic markets in Asia and South America too, but Nipaluna/Hobart packs well above its weight with an amazing local arts, craft and artisan scene, very talented buskers and of course the food is amazing! You can also pick up great handmade souvenirs as well as locally grown fruit, veg and other produce. Australia's markets are not to be missed. Wander through the stalls and rub shoulders with locals and tourists alike. And, of course, in Australia markets are safe (no pick pockets!), are generally accessible (check the website links below for more!) and many are committed to sustainability with biodegradable, recycled or reusable packaging and no single-use plastics in sight. Feel good by supporting local businesses and artists. And if you do feel the need to buy souvenirs - check the labelling and make sure you are buying locally made products whenever you can. OK now we're craving a papaya salad at sunset at Mindil Market in Darwin!!
