Figures are per person, twin-sharing, and indicative for 2026. Exchange rate used: roughly ₹1 = 185 IDR. Prices vary with season, booking lead time and group size.
1. Flights from India to Bali
Flights are usually the single biggest cost. Bali's Ngurah Rai International Airport (Denpasar, DPS) is well connected from Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Chennai and Hyderabad. Most routes are one-stop via Singapore, Kuala Lumpur or Bangkok, taking around 9–12 hours including the layover.
- Booked 2–3 months ahead: ₹28,000–38,000 return
- Peak season (Dec–Jan, Jun–Jul): ₹45,000–60,000 return
- Carriers: Singapore Airlines/Scoot, AirAsia, Batik Air, Malaysia Airlines, Thai, IndiGo (to hubs)
Tip: Booking 60–90 days in advance typically saves ₹5,000–8,000. Shoulder months (April–June, September–October) have the best fare-to-weather balance.
2. Bali Visa & Tourist Levy Cost
Indian passport holders need a visa, but it is simple. You get a Visa on Arrival (VoA) at Denpasar airport, or apply online in advance for the e-VOA at the official portal molina.imigrasi.go.id.
- Visa on Arrival: IDR 500,000 (about ₹3,000), valid 30 days, extendable once
- Bali tourist levy: a one-time IDR 150,000 (about ₹900) per visitor, paid online via the official Love Bali portal or on arrival

3. Accommodation: Hotels & Villas in Bali
Bali offers incredible value for money, especially private-pool villas. Per night, twin-sharing:
- Budget (guesthouse, hostel private room): ₹1,500–2,500
- Mid-range (3–4 star hotel or stylish villa): ₹4,000–7,000
- Luxury (5-star resort, private-pool villa): ₹15,000–40,000+
For a first trip, splitting your nights between Seminyak or Kuta, Ubud and a night on Nusa Penida works beautifully. See where to stay in our Ubud travel guide and Nusa Penida guide.
4. Food Cost in Bali
Eating in Bali can be very cheap or quite fancy — your choice:
- Warung (local) meal: ₹120–300
- Casual restaurant / cafe: ₹400–900
- Beach club or fine dining: ₹1,500–3,500
Indian travellers eat well too — there are excellent Indian restaurants across the island. Browse areas in our Indian restaurants in Bali guide, and try local favourites from our Balinese cuisine guide.
5. Transport in Bali
- Private car with driver: ₹3,500–4,800 per day (best value for families and temple/waterfall days)
- Grab / Gojek rides: a few hundred rupees for short hops
- Scooter rental: ₹400–700 per day (only if licensed and confident)
- Fast boats to Nusa Penida, Lembongan or the Gili Islands: ₹2,000–4,000 return
6. Activities & Tours
Many of Bali's best experiences are cheap or free — beaches, rice-terrace walks and temple grounds. Paid highlights:
- Mount Batur sunrise trek: ₹3,000–4,500
- Nusa Penida day trip (Kelingking, snorkelling): ₹3,500–5,500
- Uluwatu temple & Kecak fire dance: ₹800–1,500
- Sunset dinner cruise: ₹3,500–6,000
- Spa & Balinese massage (60 min): ₹500–1,200
How Much Spending Money Do You Need Per Day in Bali?
Excluding flights and hotels, a comfortable daily spend (food, transport, a couple of activities) is around:
- Budget: ₹2,000–2,800 per day
- Mid-range: ₹4,000–6,000 per day
- Luxury: ₹10,000+ per day
7 Ways to Cut Your Bali Trip Cost
- Book flights 60–90 days early and travel in the shoulder months (April–June, September–October).
- Share a private-pool villa with friends — often cheaper per head than separate hotel rooms.
- Eat at warungs — a nasi campur plate costs a fraction of a beach-club meal.
- Hire one car with driver for the group instead of multiple taxis.
- Pay in IDR, not your home currency, to avoid 3–5% dynamic-conversion charges.
- Book day tours direct with operators or your villa, not hotel desks.
- Use a package — bundling flights, villas, transfers and tours is often cheaper and far less hassle than booking piecemeal.
