Here, you’ll find details pertaining to activities in Bali!
Overall, Bali was very affordable
While some establishments accept USD, it is best to exchange your currency for Rupiah. It
makes it easier on you and them, taking language barriers and conversion rates into
consideration.
The Exchange Rate is about 1 USD = 14,449.0000 IDR (Indonesian Rupiah) There are slight
changes made to this rate, daily.
Transportation was the most costly expense. The rate is based on how long you will need your
driver and how many people needing to be transported. While it’s only about 25 dollars per day
for transportation, if you’re crossing provinces that’s additional money. Ideally, you’d want to
schedule your activities within close proximity to your home. From the airport to Ubud (which is pretty far) you wouldn’t pay more than 20 bucks. If you needed a ride from the airport to Denpasar (no more than a15 minute drive) you’d pay about 6 bucks.
The total cost of Transportation for 2 weeks in Bali was 400, roughly. Remember, this was split
between 7 people. If you’d like to rent Mopeds or catch Taxi’s, NEGOTIATE! You can probably get anywhere within the same province for no more than 5 dollars.
When you go to the boutique/vendor areas to buy souvenirs, NEGOTIATE! These will be cheap! In regards to activities and food/drinks see below, reflected cost is in U.S. dollars.

Conclusively, it’s possible for you to go to Bali with about 350, USD for spending. You can survive off of
that for a two week span. However, if you plan to overindulge at restaurants and beach clubs, I’d
recommend about 500 USD.
