The best time to travel to Bali:

Bali, located at the equator, has a tropical rainforest climate with an average annual temperature of 28. In a year, the dry season is from April to 10, and the rainfall is relatively small, which is suitable for tourism.

Every year in July, August and early September, a large number of Europeans come to Bali for their holidays. During this time, the prices of local hotels are very high, and they are often full. Around Christmas, there are more tourists from Australia and other parts of Indonesia. So we should pay attention to avoid the tourist season.

Drinking water: neither tap water nor well water can be directly drunk. Try to drink bottled water. A better hotel will provide each person with 1-2 bottles of drinking water every day. You can also buy it at convenience stores.

When buying bottled water, check the production date of water, or observe it in the sun or light. If there are impurities in the water, don't buy it. Drinking water and ice cubes provided by restaurants and bars can be safely eaten.

Medical institutions: There are hospitals in major towns in Bali, and many hotels also have their own clinics to provide 24-hour medical services. But overall, the medical conditions are poor. In case of emergency, the quickest way is to fly directly to Singapore for first aid.

Bali has 24-hour international SOS service. It is recommended to buy health insurance and accident insurance with international rescue service before departure.

Tip:

In addition to hotels and restaurants marked with service charges, tips are generally required to accept various services, and the amount depends on the labor paid by the other party, ranging from 500 to tens of thousands of guilders.

General principle: waiter, 5-65438+ 00% of the meal fee; Taxi drivers, depending on the distance, are free of 500 or 1000 Dutch guilders; The driver rented a car for 50 thousand rupiah or 5 dollars a day. If the other party provides good service or pays extra labor, it should be increased as appropriate. It is suggested that you take 1 000,5000 rupiah and1USD with you and be ready to tip at any time.

Tips etiquette:

1. When tipping, you should smile and thank each other for their service. Remember that tipping is the reward of the other party, labor, not charity.

2. In addition to visa exemption, the extra tip should be single note. If you tip 1000 guilders, you are welcome. Do not use two 500 guilders. You can tip without coins, which is very impolite. Don't use worn or wrinkled paper money.

3. The tip paid to the room attendant can be placed in an eye-catching position such as bedside table and dressing table when leaving the room, and cannot be folded at will, otherwise the waiter will think that this is the property left by the guest unintentionally.

Domestic mobile roaming: The mobile phone of China Mobile Company can roam to Bali, but the charge is very expensive. If you can leave your mobile phone on, you can take two mobile phones with you.

Buy a local mobile phone card: Many stores sell mobile phone sim cards, and you can also buy them at the airport.
