I'm from Pu 'er, Yunnan, and I want to travel to Korea or Bali after graduating from high school. What procedures should I go through? How much does it cost?

If there is enough money.

It takes about one to two months to get a passport first.

So do you choose to travel by yourself or play with a group? I use Bali as an example because it is beautiful.

I want to know how many people you are. If you say it yourself, 4000 to 6000 is ok.

As for the visa materials and the length of time mentioned upstairs, please check for yourself.

You don't have to worry. A visa on arrival in Bali requires US dollars. I'll give you the details of what I found later.

You need to change Indonesian rupiah dollars and take RMB with you.

Introduction to Bali: The famous Bali is one of more than 7000 islands in Indonesian archipelago/KLOC-0. She is one of the most beautiful and distinctive tourist attractions in Asia.

★ The latitude of Bali is 8 degrees south of the equator, with a tropical climate. There are only two seasons in a year (April-11month dry season and1February-March rainy season), and the annual average temperature is about 28 degrees Celsius.

★ The main religious belief in Bali is Hinduism, and local residents fully display their faith in God in exquisite temple buildings.

★ Bali and China both belong to GMT+8 time zone, so visitors to Bali don't need to adjust their watches, and their daily routine is exactly the same.

Indonesian is the official language of Indonesia and Bali. But with the gradual development of tourism in recent years, most local people can speak a little English, and many shops have Chinese signs. Simple communication should not be a problem.

★ Bali has a tropical island climate all year round in summer, and the climate type is only "dry season" (from April to10 every year); "rainy season" (165438+ 10 to March of the following year).

Currency exchange: US dollars need to be exchanged in advance, and the local general exchange rate of US dollars for Indonesian rupiah is about 1: 10000. The exchange rate of the Indonesian rupiah fluctuates greatly. I suggest you check the exchange rate of the day when you arrive at the airport. If it is a high level, you might as well change it a little more. The exchange rate at our airport is 1: 1 1900, and then it becomes 1: 9700 when it is exchanged at the local currency exchange office. When you change money, you should prepare some small change of 1 USD to facilitate tipping. Finally, I would like to remind you that because there are a lot of local counterfeit money, we basically don't accept dollars before 2000. The amount of money in the Indonesian rupiah is too large, and it is a lot of change. I am not used to calculating the price at the beginning of shopping. Later, I had experience. Generally, the last three zeros are directly removed from the price tag, which is almost the value of RMB.

Local cuisine: Indonesia's fried rice, roast pork chops, roast suckling pigs and mango juice are all delicious. Several restaurants and delicious food are recommended here.

★ POPIES restaurant in Kuta, Bali, is a restaurant set up in its own yard garden, and its style is a bit like Huajia Yiyuan in Beijing (there are pictures in the itinerary introduction later in this article, so sisters can have a look). The salad, Indonesian fried rice, roast chicken and freshly squeezed mango juice in this restaurant are all delicious. When the local restaurant pays the bill, in addition to the vegetable price, it also needs to pay 1 1% tax, which will be automatically included in the bill.

★ The dirty ducks in Ubud, Bali are also delicious. The roast duck here is as crispy and delicious as Beijing roast duck! In addition, Indonesian scrambled egg rice and mutton kebabs are also good. This restaurant is located in a place separated by farmland and street. Tasting delicious food under the coconut trees in the yard and watching the smoke curling in the distance are quite a bit of Lijiang's country flavor. You can call in advance to make a reservation: 036 1-975489.

★ The roast suckling pig (Babi Guling) opposite Ubud Palace is a famous dish in Bali. Add spices to the whole suckling pig, roast it on the fire until the skin is crispy and tender, and serve with rice. How delicious! The roast suckling pig here was once considered by some diners as the most delicious roast pig rice in the world. Don't miss it!

Accommodation recommendation: Locals generally choose three places to play and live. Nusa Dua Beach, kuta beach and Ubud area.

★ Nusa Dua Beach is full of luxury five-star hotels, which are very quiet and the hotel environment is amazing! It's so pleasant to hear the waves lapping on the beach at night! If you want to have a leisure holiday, it's really a bit like heaven here.

★ kuta beach is a lively place with many people. The beach is full of sunbathers and all kinds of vendors, and there are many famous local rock singers singing and dancing. There are many dazzling small shops in the street. It is a good choice for friends who like to be busy and go shopping.

Ubud is an inland mountainous area. The palace here is full of mysterious colors, and the descendants of the royal family live in the backyard. Museums and cafes here all have the quiet customs of tropical rainforest people. Especially in the hotels here, every visitor has an independent small courtyard where he can bathe outdoors and feel the beauty of nature. The whole place is a bit like Lijiang.

Transportation: The main modes of transportation in Bali are as follows. Sisters can choose according to their own feelings.

★ Air flight: There are two airlines to Bali: Eagle Airlines and Singapore Airlines. I suggest you choose Singapore Airlines flight, the service is very good. If a girl with airsickness travels, it will be more comfortable to find a seat near the emergency exit and aisle in advance. If it is a honeymoon, inform the airline in advance, and the newlyweds will receive a honey moon cake and two glasses of champagne. If you can't finish the cake, the stewardess will pack it and take it away. It feels warm.

★ Taxi: The local taxi should choose Bluebird, with English signs on the window. Drivers wear bluebird uniforms, and the price and service are very good. The cost is RMB per kilometer in 4 yuan. Local cars keep to the left, so be careful when crossing the road or driving. It's best to avoid taking a white taxi. They usually don't want to pay by the meter and deliberately charge high fares to foreign passengers.

★ Chartered car: This is the contact information between the local tour guide and the chartered driver. You can contact them in advance to discuss the itinerary and price. Generally speaking, it costs 35 dollars to charter a car for 8 hours a day. We chose maruto for this trip. He is a very kind young man and can speak Chinese. He always picks us up on time and helps us bargain for shopping and sightseeing. And finally * * * gave us 12 hours of service, and only charged 35 yuan. So I suggest you choose to use his chartered car. It must make you feel worthwhile.

Entertainment: Go to Bali to enjoy the beach, waves and sunshine. So I suggest that you don't make your schedule too full and tired. Spend two days surfing, sunbathing, feeding birds and squirrels, and taking a long vacation for your mind!

★ spa: The spa in Bali is very famous. You can feel it during recess. Spas in five-star hotels are generally more expensive. I suggest you choose a famous local store to feel it. Zen spa in Ubud is said to be very good, and you will feel as energetic as you have slept for 9 hours after finishing it. The address is next to the famous local dirty duck restaurant. You must make a reservation one day in advance to get a seat here. Reservation telephone number: 036 1-970-976

★ Diving: Be sure to go diving in Bali and feel the beautiful underwater world. Colorful tropical fish and coral stones are simply beautiful! Generally speaking, the cost of diving here is about 60 to 90 dollars. Netizens generally recommend choosing a diving company with a formal license. Maruto, our tour guide, helped us contact a diving company, and he helped us cut the price to 70 dollars for two people, which really surprised us. But this company has no license. Maruto said that the license plates here are all bought, and it doesn't matter whether they are available or not. We feel that the company he introduced also looks very professional, and many people from Taiwan Province Province dive here. Our coach is also very professional. With his protection, he feels very safe underwater. He will always hold our life jackets, and if he feels a little uncomfortable, he will take us to the surface immediately.

★ rafting: rafting in Bali is also very exciting, and the cost is about 20 yuan per person. There are two general drifting places, AYUNG RIVER and TELEGA WAJA. The latter is relatively new and remote. According to the international drifting grade, Arong is mainly in grade 2-3, and you can enjoy the scenery along the way. TELEGA WAJA has a small number of level 4, which is a little more exciting. Drifting company is responsible for the pick-up and drop-off of the hotel, which is close to Ubud and far from the seaside (Ubud used to be about 1 hour, and the seaside was 2-2.5 hours). Therefore, the choice of drifting should be arranged according to the itinerary.

★ Beach water sports: The water sports near Nusa Dua Beach include 1 hour jet skis, 1 hour glass boats and snorkeling, and the three activities are * * * USD 35 per person. Seaplanes are also very interesting. You can try it sometime.

Shopping sticker: There are many interesting local specialties to buy. Here is a brief introduction.

★ Convenience Store: After arriving in Bali, it is inevitable to bring water and some snacks every day. So convenience stores are indispensable. There are many K convenience stores in the local area, similar to express customers in China. The store is not big, but it is clean, with all kinds of daily necessities and reasonable prices. The signboard of the shop is a red circle with the English letter K in the middle. People can go to this kind of store to buy food. Special reminder, local tap water in Bali (even if it is boiled) can't be drunk, so you must drink a kind of pure water of aqua brand. Generally, five-star hotels will provide unlimited supplies. If you travel, you can go to the convenience store to buy something to drink.

★ Handicrafts: The handicraft villages in Kuta or Sanur, and the characteristic wood carvings, paintings, masks and dyed textiles in Ubud handicraft market are all famous. You can buy some as a souvenir. Local suppliers will bid at random and warmly invite you to make a counter-offer. Generally, the counter-offer is 10% off and 20% off. Never waste money in hotel shopping malls and duty-free shopping malls, where prices are staggering.

Bali Visa: The local visa is landing visa. Just make sure that the passport is valid for more than 6 months, go directly to the Visa landing place after getting off the plane, pay the money first (US 10 within 7 days, US25 within 7-30 days), check and stamp the receipt, passport, receipt and immigration form together, and it's over. The whole process includes queuing 65438+. I want to remind you that besides the entry card, there are also exit cards. The immigration officer will tear it off and put it in your passport. Be sure to keep it safe, or you will be fined if you lose it when you come back.

Safety taboos: Bali is a place with religious beliefs, so you should pay attention to some safety taboos when traveling to avoid causing trouble.

★ Don't trample on the offerings: Hindus in Bali make sacrifices to the gods every morning, not only in temples, but also at the gates of streets to worship the devil (in their teachings, ghosts and gods are a kind of balance and worthy of respect), so be careful not to trample. Don't stand in front of local people when they bow down and pray. No matter where you are, it is at least very impolite.

★ Use right hand in communication: Pay attention to the distinction between left and right hands when communicating with local people, such as tipping waiters in hotels. If you don't pay attention to using your left hand, you will get angry.

★ Public security issues: try to travel together, and it is best not to act alone. It is recommended to buy a travel insurance for overseas before departure. Ping An Insurance and PICC P&C Insurance are also sold at home and abroad, and the prices are not expensive.

★ Pay attention to clothes: you can't wear shorts or short skirts when entering or leaving the temple. You need to rent a salon and a belt for free outside.

Customs declaration: the articles carried by tourists shall not exceed the self-use limit. If there are too many articles, they may be confiscated by the customs. Foreign currency and Indonesian rupiah can be freely carried in and out of the customs, but the amount of Indonesian rupiah cannot exceed 50,000. It is best to declare to the customs to carry a large amount of foreign currency, so as to avoid trouble when leaving the country. It should also be noted that leaving Indonesia requires 150000RP/ person, and only Indonesian rupiah is accepted. This money should be reserved in advance.

Don't forget to tip: Indonesia is a tipping country. If you are satisfied with the service you get, tipping is definitely welcome. The general standards are: hotel bellboy: 2.000RP/ piece, hotel cleaning: 10000 RP/ day (please note that you should give it every day, and if you stay in the same hotel for 3 days, you should tip it for 3 days, otherwise there will be trouble), and chartered driver: 10000 RP/ person. But when you eat in a restaurant, you usually have to pay an extra tax and service charge of about 15%, so you don't have to tip when you check out.

Government Contact: If there is an emergency in the local area, don't forget to contact the Indonesian Embassy of the Government of China. ★ Tel: 006-22 1-576 1039 (reception room) /576 1037 (office) /576 1025 (consular section)/5761.

★ Local emergency telephone number: 1 10 police station 1 13 fire station 1 18 ambulance.

★ Contact information of Ctrip Bali: local mobile phone: 036 1—7928585c Indra 08 1558 100568 Leon.

Telephone communication: Choose Ctrip's holiday products and give a local mobile phone sim card, which can be used directly in the mobile phone. If two people travel together, in order to facilitate contact, you can also find a place marked with telkom and buy a mobile phone card, which is usually sold at airports and shops. You can continue to recharge after playing. In the local area, if you make a domestic call, you can dial 0 100086+ area code or mobile phone number, and basically calculate the phone bill according to 1000 rupiah per minute.
