From the Founder The aim of this booklet is to give our readers some valuable information about Bali, , as well as to some extent about the neighbouring island of Lombok. The population of Bali is predominantly Hindu and has a rich culture steeped in religious ceremonies. Our first Visitors guide publication began in Northern Europe in 1999. It was a success among tourists and staff in hotels, guesthouses and information centers alike. Having travelled to 60 countries myself, I have accrued a great deal of knowledge and insight into travellers´ needs. Indonesia has unexpectedly become one of my favourite countries. This is due to the warm and friendly people and Bali’s rich cultural traditions. You also get good value for your money there, which is always a pleasure for an economist! I hope this booklet will serve to help you in your travels. Welcome to Bali!

The Balinese are Hindu by religion, whilst the people of Lombok are mostly Muslim. The Balinese have developed their own rich version of Hinduism, where religious ceremonies take the central place in their lives. They are peaceful, courteous and offer a pleasant smile.

The funeral ceremony (Ngaben), takes place only a few days after the death and is a time of remembrance rather than sadness. There is often talking, eating, music and laughter. Everyone dresses in their colorful traditional Balinese clothing and there is usually a funeral feast after the ceremony. After the cremation, the ashes and bones are collected and offered to the sea. The purification of the soul usually then occurs 12-14 days after the cremation ceremony. 14 15

Some recommended places: • Visit some temples. It is best to visit a few of Bali’s best temples rather than seeing too many, as it might tire you. Besakih is the most important temple; another is, Ulan Danau Beratan Temple next to Lake Beratan. Other temples worth visiting are Lempuyang and in the south (see the activity chapter).

• Travel from Seminyak up north west to Tanah Lot Temple. Make a stop in an SOS village on the way and then head up to Lovina in the North, and spend one night on its black sand beach. The most famous activity on this tour is a swim with dolphins. Upon leaving Lovina, join a tour or hire a driver to go to Sambangan Aling Aling Waterfall. It’s possible to jump into the river from a height of 5 to 8 meters (see pictures on Facebook). Thereafter, I went to Munduk where I spent two nights in a quiet, small town close to many waterfalls, surrounded by lush greenery. 18 19

• A trip to Candidasa in the east, where it is more quiet with beautiful scenery. Amed, further up north is also popular with its volcanic black sand beaches. These areas are good for snorkling and diving.

• Take a fast boat to the Gili Islands in Lombok. This takes about two hours from Sanur to Gili Trawangan. From here it takes only 20 minutes by public ferry to reach the main island of Lombok. I spent two nights here at Senggigi Beach. There are far fewer tourists in mainland Lombok than in Bali. Some say its like Bali • From Ubud head to, Munduk. The was 10-15 years ago.

• A great day trip is to the Lake Batur. It has a fine view of Mount Batur. I really liked visiting the small traditional villages around the lake, taking a small boat trip and swimming.

• Visit Nusa Penida Island. It is a more relaxing place than the main island of Bali. It is a 30 minute fast boat ride from Sanur, or a 1 1/2 hour public car ferry from Padang Bai.

visitorsguidetravel.com Your Guide to Acommodation

Guide to Accommodation

The range of accommodation in Bali and the islands varies a lot, in terms of quality and service. The price can vary from 7$ (100K), for a simple dormitory, to 15$ (200-250K) for a guesthouse ,to 80-200$ for a four star hotel. All those could include breakfast. I have tried everything from one to four stars. The price also varies, depending on the season, where during the time around Christmas and New Year, as well as the high season in the summer, the prices will be higher.

I often found that guesthouses offer the best value for money. In the off- season, it is good practice to drop by at those places and walk around to find the best spot. Besides, these accommodations don‘t have to pay the high commission to the booking sites. You can more or less deduct one star from the four and three star hotels to match the western standard of the same ones. I often found it a little warning sign if the accommodation did not present its grade on some booking sites in their reception or if the grade presented was an old one. 22 23
