And although Bali is awesome, there is a lot to explore in and around the other islands of Indonesia, which stretches all the way from Aceh in the north down to Papua New Guinea, in the southeast. So, what are you waiting for, explore one of the most diverse destinations on the planet when you travel Indonesia.

FAQ

1. Do I need a visa to visit Indonesia?

Most travellers can get a Visa on Arrival for 30 days, which can be extended once. Many nationalities also qualify for visa-free entry.

2. Is Bali the best place to stay, or should I explore other islands too?
Bali is popular, but Indonesia shines beyond it — Nusa Penida, Lombok, the Gili Islands, Komodo, and Java are incredible and less crowded.
3. How expensive is Indonesia for backpackers?

Budget $25-$50/day depending on island and season. Accommodation and food are affordable; day trips and ferries add to the cost.

4. What's the best way to get around the islands?
Scooters are common on Bali and Lombok; for longer distances, use ferries, fast boats, or domestic flights.
5. How strict are the rules about cultural etiquette?
Respect temple dress codes (cover shoulders/knees), avoid touching people’s heads, and use your right hand when giving/receiving items.
6. Are the beaches and water safe for swimming?
Generally yes, but currents can be strong in places like Uluwatu and Nusa Penida. Always check local conditions.
