Top 6 things to do in Bali, Indonesia

21:05

1. Go Parasailing!
I went para sailing individually for around $10 because we managed to get a deal with our driver. We headed down to Nusa Dua which is the southern section of the Bali island. OMG it was the most exhilarating feeling and once you get up about 20m from sea level you can see a glimpse of Bali from an aerial view.


2. Try out some "poo coffee" 
Don't refrain from just the sound! Locally it is called Kopi Luwak and is made from the coffee droppings from a civet. The flavour is a lot more robust than normal coffee. Though I don't drink coffee too much myself, I think it's one way of really understanding and trying out the local delicacies


3. White water rafting! 
Really is an experience and one in which I recommend a must do when you are here. Not only is it cheaper compared to other places in the world (NZ) but seeing the really natural side of Bali while you travel along the river is truly amazing. I recommend going with these guys: Bali Adventure Tours


4. Elephant riding
You can see from my face that I was holding on the side for my dear life haha but rest assured I was safe! Also realised that elephants are super hairy! Our elephant ride was part of the tour package with the white water rafting: Bali Adventure Tours


5. Massages!
The one thing I miss about Bali the most is probably the best quality and cheap massages. A half body massage can start from $6 and if you are willing to pay a little extra (really about $20 extra which isn't much at all), you can get some pretty luxurious massages! We paid about $30 for a 4 hour full body massage including body scrub in a private villa. Also included complimentary fruits and drinks. I was in heaven!

Here is the place that we went to: Febris Spa

For cheaper quick massages I recommend going here. I am pretty sure these guys are a franchise so they can be found on the main streets of Kuta, Legian and Seminyak: Carla Spa


6. Have dinner along the beach 
There is a place called Jimbaran where you can enjoy some delicious (albeit slightly expensive) seafood while having the sand between your toes. We got a dinner set for $40 US a person which included a variety of seafood from lobster to prawns. What you are really paying for is the view and if you are going when the sun sets, you are in for a real treat!



Recommendations for drivers
I recommended this driver, Agus to at least 2 friends and they really enjoyed the quality of his service. He also organises day trips and really he is the go to guy if you are needing a whole day driver or half day tours: Komang Bali Now

Here is my review on Tripadvisor of one of the half day yours that we took up if you want to see more of the details: Trip advisor Review
