Bali is not what I expected (THIS IS PARADISE?) 🇮🇩

[@richardprovost6148]

Bali is not overcrowded, it’s just that tourists flock to the 3-4 same spots. Just get a little away from the main streets of Ubud, Seminyak and especially Canggu and then you’ll have a 1000% better cultural experience without the crowds. As a whole, the Balinese are the friendliest, kindest, most welcoming people I have met anywhere.

[@JoshuaGreen-h9u]

Your kidding right? Its super overcrowded, not from tourists either ive seen about 4 my whole time here the locals on scooters clog up the roads, nie impsossible to walk anywhere due to lack of sidewalks, people not respecting road crossings and people even driving on the sidewalks.

[@chaw294]

Holy moly, the traffic in Bali is insane ! Love that gorgeous sunset.

[@brandonlim5468]

I can understand why you choose Bali as it's such a popular destination especially for your parents and Ivana's siblings who are there for the first time. And yes, for them, it's sort of incomplete to go all the way to Indonesia without visiting Bali.

[@JetLagWarriors]

Yes! We still would say Bali is a MUST even if traffic is bad. You can’t Balinese culture anywhere else in the world, even in neighbouring Lombok.

[@JetLagWarriors]

thank you so much! Welcome to the channel

[@buupyboopy9306]

yeah, bali traffic is night mare. That is why we choose just to stay in one nice place rather than go around. But i heard that next year they are planning to build a MRT from Airport to Canggu. Hopefully they build more public transport in the future, finger cross

[@KooErwin]

Nice to see that you are brave enough to sample the local balinese food like Babi Guling.Go to Kedonganan fish market ! 🎉

[@simondunster2284]

Best way to get from A to B , walk , and walk along the beach it's the quickest way .

[@biking-viking-claus-andersen]

I absolutely love Indonesia and have been there a few times. But Bali is probably the place that I like the least in Indonesia (Together with Batam Island). Lombok is way more chilled out and friendly, in my experience. I also really enjoyed cycling around the island of Sumbawa, where I hardly met anyone who was not Indonesian.

[@ardiardi8655]

Ya karena di Bali tidak ada orang berjilbab seperti di lombok dan sedikit ada masjid..mungkin itu kekurangan Bali ya...mungkin.

I plan for bali after CNY next year... But my biggest concern is overcrowded as well...

[@JetLagWarriors]

depends on your interest. Because we were planning to visit popular tourist attractions, like Tanah Lot, Uluwatu, etc, we stayed in a central popular area. But if you go North..west or east, it won’t be as crowded.

“Drive Outside Of Rush Hour - Where possible, drive outside of rush hour. Rush hour in Bali had two phases, local rush hour traffic followed by tourist rush tour traffic. Local rush hour is really between 6-8am and then again around 5-7pm. For tourist traffic in popular resort areas, congestion builds up around 8-10am as everyone leaves for their day trips and builds up again around 4-7pm as visitors return and start to head out again for their evening activities. Evening rush hour is often worse than the morning.” Copy Paste from a review

[@gamingch4538]

that is denpasar traffic not bali, if you go to west or north bali its more quite and the road wider 3x

Been there just for transit when I was studying in Sulawesi. It was a great place, wish I had more time there..maybe I'll follow Ivana's suggestion, instead of Bali I'll go to Lombok😍

i must say, the beaches in this vlog, are not as nice as i thought it would be. it is more happening though...

[@JetLagWarriors]

Yes, Bali is more for parties and entertainment + culture. Other islands in Indonesia have much nicer beaches. But you can’t find Balinese unique culture anywhere else in Indonesia. Only in Bali.

Wanna see your mom reviews soon Honestly I never liked Bali ,as a Muslim is hard to get halal food close by

[@abumahput5408]

Some rivers are filthy and smelly. Small mobile traders selling stuff on the beach really annoy visitors.

[@adijanuardea1582]

Its easy to get halal food in Bali. Rendang Padang and chicken stay or duck madura foods every where. Its hard if you want to find nasi lemak and roti canai, cause we don't like those food in Bali 😂

[@liztaylor4251]

​@@adijanuardea1582how do you know that the meat is halal...i've found a lot them selling rendang and chicken satay but a non muslim.... Tht's is what we meant by hard to find....some people they say halal just for the sake of selling out...we r not sure.... Lombok, bandung, belitung are better places for muslim i guess..

[@zb9074]

[@RubberontheroadIndonesia]

Tourist come to Bali and say they come for the culture, then the futherest they go is perhaps Ubud!!! There is more to Bali than the rip of food and clothing joints around Kuta , Legian and Seminyak and also Sanur. Get out in the country and see the real Bali.

Bali is very commercialised. Better Lombok Island, less commercialised.
