Alternatively, you can also arrange private transfers - our recommendation is below.

If you need private transfers, a driver or a rental car, our friend Putre can help. Contact them via Whatsapp and quote our wedding.

Travel Note

Local Rideshare options

We highly recommend installing GOJEK and GRAB apps. They are simple to use and you can book bike or car rides, food delivery, massages and groceries and pharmacy items anywhere on the island.

Flight

Denpasar, Bali (Ngurah Rai International Airport)

July is peak tourist season in Bali. We suggest locking in your flights soon, if you can.

Travel Note

VISA REQUIREMENT

You can purchase your visa when you land at the airport or online, within 90 days of your arrival. A 30-day tourist visa for Australian passport holders is IDR 500k (AUD 50). https://molina.imigrasi.go.id/

Travel Note

Cash & ATMs

Most places in Bali take card payments so you should be covered. However, you should still set aside some cash for Gojek ride payments and when you are eating out at local places. Having cash for tips is also handy, although not customary. Please avoid small money changer shops. We recommend withdrawing cash directly from an ATM or head to an authorised money changer chain (e.g., BMC or Dirgahayu Valuta Prima in Sanur). $1 AUD is approximately 10,000 Indonesian Rupiah (IDR). $50 per day should be more than enough cash per person.

Travel Note

Travel SIM card & Whatsapp

We recommend grabbing a SIM card at the airport as you land and installing Whatsapp for easy comms while in Bali. There are a number of SIM provider kiosks and you will be able to get a tourist pack, which will give you a local number and internet data - you'll need this to register for Grab/Gojek apps. We recommend Telkomsel as they have the widest coverage in Bali.
