When to visit Bali?
The Island of Bali is situated close to the equator so you will experience dry and rainy weather throughout the year. The temperate climate is perfect for travel. We recommend traveling during the dry season i.e April to October so that you can spend most of your time sunbathing. The dry season is also the busiest time of the year which results in a hike in accommodation and travel costs. If you wish to make the most out of your trip and stick to a budget we recommend traveling during the rainy seasons. Aside from the occasional rainstorm you will find the best deals and find the top destination to be a lot less crowded, which is perfect for vlogs. Keep in mind that the hottest month in Bali is May (averaging 28°C/82°F) and the coldest month is January (averaging 26°C/79°F).
How Long to Spend in Bali?
Bali is a relatively small Island but there is a lot to explore. The itinerary for Bali is a minimum of seven days but we promise you that even if you were to spend two weeks in Bali, you wouldn’t run out of things to do.

The most expensive places to eat are usually the Seminyak and Ulywantu but you will get to try world-renowned Indonesian chefs.
