People forgot, despite being a destination Bali is a very good place as an entry point. It's an island destination with distinctive culture by itself not a city, and from there you could go to The Mentawais, Lombok, Sumba, Telos, Banyaks, all with uncrowded white sand beaches and consistent surf waves, that's exactly what surfers do all this time, made Bali as their home, and you have endless surfing playgrounds.
no matter how u hate or love bali, in the future you will always be greatful to be here and want to be back again. it's because the energy in bali is so positive
Just visited Bali for the first time, very touristy and overcrowded in places but the luxury side is still incredible and the 'magical' vibe is still there
I'm glad I was able to go to Bali before social media. My husband and I went to places in the late eighties/early nighties where we were the only tourists. Now hundreds of people per day go to them, eg the Water Place at Tirtagangan and the Jatiluwih rice terraces. I've been 23 times mainly to visit our Balinese friends and have been the only people invited to attend significant Balinese ceremonies. Our friends are not in the tourist industry. 😂
I fell in love with Bali at first sight, for me it is the best and most amazing place in the world with a special atmosphere and energy. I really miss Bali and will definitely come back again and again.❤
Biggest problem with bali is the streets are too narrow....often, alley-like roads become main street, jammed with so many cars, motorcycles...even trucks and buses.
And the trash and garbage are everywhere ini bali. It's a very dirty island.....!! Compared to Phuket, bali is much dirtier and worse city management and traffic than Phuket
I have been to Bali 7 times but now my go to place is Phuket, which is not as crowded, has more interesting places better food, great beaches and costs are way less than Bali. The Thai people are terrific with tourists. Some idea of Thai prices is a full hour of massage AUD$16, beer in 7 11 $1.20 beer in restaurant $3 sunlounge on beach $4 a day. I have a full european breakfast with 3 eggs, bacon, orange juice, good coffee, toast, home made jam and fried tomatoes for $8.
my fist visit to bali was in 1998, my last 2008, it changed so much in only these 8 years but i bet i wouldn't recognise it now at all. overtourism killed the vibe
I am to be your subscriber when you come to bandung, Indonesia. Welcome to Bali 😀 you should visit another place in Indonesia like Gili Trawangan,Gili Meno, Lombok and komodo island
Early in the video he says that expensive nicer accomodations would be ~$2,000/month. The cliffside villa with the ocean view is about $600/night on tripadvisor. Just to level people's expectations.
You can VERY nice stuff for 2000 a month in Bali. Luxury hotels go off the name and service and Bali has some very expensive places too. The guesthouse in prime location showed before goes for around 350\400 a month if rented long term (daily like 30bucks). Always try to cover both sides 🙏🏻
Here we are talking 😂..go exploring more southern eastern Asia - much valuable in dollars wise than in China. Like your Sri Lanka , Philippines videos. Im 58 . Plan future retirement life. You offered so many travel insights, thanks ! Im also gym goer. Feel connected when u show gym around hotels or long stay rentals 😅
Nice video! No matter what it's always nice to go back to Bali again & again 😃 I am always happy there & never get tired of Bali. My second favorite island is Flores. I think it is magical also especially if you do island hopping and hike to Padar. Kelimutu Crater Lake is breathtaking. Love pink beach in Flores. You should make a video of Flores 😊
Btw, Bali is building an underground train starting in September 2024, finishing in 2031. And Canggu got those black sands coz she literally facing the east part of Java, with active volcanoes ijen & Raung.
Just in the beginning of the video but I visited Bali 2003 and was amazing. I stayed in Hilton resort in Jakarta and Ubud was amazing. Had the most amazing massage at Ubud Bodyworks Centre. I had amazing food at Dirty Duck restaurant. Got bitten by a clever monkey at the forest. I did not immediately give enough bananas so he bit my leg just so that I got scared but not injured. I loved it. Was touristy BUT not to the extend as now 20 years later. I do not know if I want to return and ruin the memories.
Honestly ... DanyDev and Christian Lost Leblanc has changed my travel mentality ❤ i enjoy traveling so much more now and the local way of life then before i was focused on whats tourist famous click baits
I am Balinese but I've never visited those places, lol ...Thanks for the lovely video, I watched it to the end...., It's kinda a must watch video, innit...Do have a good one, ...🙏
The haters don't matter, neither do the promoters. The market will regulate itself. The tourists will find out for themselves whether they still want to go to Bali or not.
With the world situation right now, many ppl will go travel as soon as possible before world get worse 😂, yes something over crowded is not quite comfortable 😂
This is spot on, I have the same exact love/hate relationship with Bali. It was definitely a gem in 2017. It's still great but there are annoyances that get to me. Every time I leave for a while though, like you said, I start romanticizing it quite a bit and I want to go back. I started spending my down time / vacation travels in Thailand and so I've been frequenting Bali less now. I feel like both have a lot of different things to offer. If Bali had a legal cannabis scene like Thailand then I'd be swayed a lot more toward going there more frequently. Bali is great to focus, work, get healthy. Now that I stay in Malaysia, I get my focus/work time there and typically Thailand is the playground. Great video!
Bali likes the capital tourism in Indonesia..so if you want real adventure n experience truly Indonesia..go to beyond Bali.. first ro surrounding islands like Nusa penida,Gilis, Lombok .. more far away more authentic like in Flores,Sumba,Alor,Timor,Sumbawa,Molluccas even Papua, Sulawesi,Borneo,Sumatra n Java give different vibes, culture, n everything..
I just spent a few weeks in Lombok, I like the vibes there a lot more compared to Bali. Still a lot of authentic spots, beautiful nature and you still got some decent restaurants etc.
Singakerta and Nyuh kuning still the best areas to still have the filling of bali at 9 minutes from ubud center and the entrance of monkey forest and with no traffic, is the new up coming area In a few years , great for new business and gym . Nice cafes and restaurants around and Pepito supermarket. And local market. Ubud yoga centre near by . Clouse to natured. Highly recommended .
Dany's coming to Bali roll out the red carpet 😂 Everything is beautiful there, would this be a challenge for Dany to find something new or different to make his video totally awesome.
Hahaha I’ve been travelling to Bali since 1979 & I’m done ! I ended up at BIMC 2 years ago with gastroenteritis, it took me a month to recover. I have been travelling extensively through Asia for many, many years & Bali would always pull at my heart strings. I haven’t been back for 2 years now & I don’t think I will ever return. You guys miss the best time way back, you have no idea what is was like, believe me it was paradise. Once upon a time ago we would hang out at places with Bowie & Mick lol 🩵 I have now replaced Bali with a few other Asian Islands 🤍 Yes tourism has touched many places, but there are still places like Bali was way back.
@@mikerubin7318 Of course, there's negatives about Bali like every other island. But, you can't deny the fact there's NONE outside Indonesia, has waves for surf as consistent and pretty good in size as Bali's waves in the entire Southeast Asia (we're not talking about culture of Bali which you don't have any interest about that). Only Mentawais and Nias come close with Bali, and thats still in Indonesia. Others are only wannabe surf destinations, like the one claim as next Bali or better Bali, but it's best waves hardly will make into top 10 waves if it's happened to be in Mentawais (talking about the meh Siargao)😂😂😂. Try looking for that outside Indo, you could go bald but will still looking for that, trust me😅. So my advice, if you think Bali is too crowded, and shit show it's easy, just go to Mentawais, Banyaks, Telos and you gonna have empty white sand beaches and amazing waves everywhere without crowds, and let's how a soulful traveller you are. That way is way better than you badmouthing Bali for nothing, juust my 2 cents.
Yeah, try to find something in Canggu without construction. Try to stay in Uluwatu without monkeys and bad streets, relax in Ubud without overcrowding areas. Impossible in 2024. That’s the truth, after spending months here. So let’s stay real, prices are ridiculous high for what you get and they are much better and beautiful places on earth to spend your money on and getting an amazing time 😉
@@Danygotaworldtosee I swear I saw it on an OG 2015 vlog before I travelled and was like "gotta check it"... 9 years later and it's still worth a shout out 😂 The food was phenomenal and great value too I recall!
if you want less touristy island just go to Lombok its just a hop away and the vibe are really different. tourist go to Bali, Vacationers go to Lombok.

The local government just launched the public transportation project like a subway train, the project will begin this September. Bali needs a proper public transport to reduce the traffic.
Like the public busses, cheap but no one is using them. The train will perform similarly. Scooters are to cheap and bring you where you want to go, trains and busses don’t. Current president already warned Bali that it will be a costly adventure for Bali. Let not alone the mess it will create additionally to the current congestion.
Usually people go to the touristy one. This one is in Canggu where the Paddel arena is on one side and padi club bar. Rice fields always go in cycles. Filmed 2 months ago so not sure how it looks now.
Covid makes Bali changed extreme, people sell their land cheaply, and mass contruction begin after thay, and not only that Balinese Hindu the foundation of the land and the people vibe were destroyed in and out, so yeah
Im praying hard Uluwatu and Ubud will not become habitat for digital nomad (no offence) like Canggu. Never mind, just take Canggu but keep the rest as how we love Bali in the past. This may be weird, but Im hoping digital nomad move to the North of Bali and help to generate the local economy there. Digital nomad live and work, they still can get the life they need there when it’s developed. The locals will open up homestay, villa, restaurants, gyms for digital nomad. For us who always visit Bali for holidays between 1-2 weeks, we dont have time to spend much time on the north, so let us enjoy other areas for relaxation, holidays. We can tolerate the narrow roads or traffics because we dont live there to go through it every single day.
Sudah waktunya bali untuk membangun sistem transportasi umum yg lebih modern & canggih untuk mengurangi kemacetan dan sempitnya jalan raya di bali, kereta bawah tanah mungkin bisa menjadi solusi terbaik supaya perumahan penduduk tidak tergusur
Can you advice, if we want to go to nice spot at Melasti beach, will we find it if Grab send us to simply “Melasti beach”? Or there are multiple entrances where some are nicer and less crowded?
We love Indonesia but Bali, it is OK but the oft-mentioned vibes are not quite there, and overall, way below expectations. Generally, it is also quite dirty. Infrastructure is no good. Sophisticated, definitely not. It's an overhyped place, overrated like many so-called tourist destinations hyped up in the West (and seldom live up to expectations). 😄😃😀
Bali punya Segalanya . Perpaduan antara Alam, Budaya, dan agama Hindu. dan modern dan traditional. Itulah yang tidak tertandingi. Bisa hidup nyaman, aman, damai.. Masalah sampah, kotoran atau bahkan tentang infrastructure burukpun orang gak peduli tentang hal itu! *Magnet Bali Luar biasa*
Look on Airbnb, it depends on where, how big, new or old, pool or no pool, etc. my villa costs 13 US dollars with shared pool. Prices go up to $1000 per day.
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27) I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. (Isaiah 66:4) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15) I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)
Heheh,,but looks like Bali is on TOP of your mind, free advertised. I guess you're coming from the most globally acclaimed southeast Asian nation, rank 7th in GDP per Capita in SEA??you know the one who feel they're better than Singaporeans but poor.😂😂😂😂
Very well put togetother video unfortunately it doesnt show the reality of bali and like so many so called influencers who are just pawns for corporate retreats the reality is that bali is overpriced and tourisim is down and given the current global economic downturn it is actually more expensive or on a par with places like Australia and some european countries when it comes to everyday living , and with the lack of tourists it becomes like a sparce forest and the dark side becomes easier to see , widespread poverty , sexual exploitation and the rubbish problem in bali is beyond a joke when will someone actually have the balls to show the emerging new mountains in bali ... not agung or batur but plastic mt .... when the new train lines connect bali to java i can only forsee its futher demise 😢
Before Bali builds a subway, it first needs waste incineration plants. Just an example: I am Swiss. Switzerland has 9 million inhabitants and 30 waste incineration plants. Bali has 4.5 million inhabitants, which means that Bali alone would need 15 waste incineration plants to deal with the waste. In Switzerland there were landfills everywhere until 1970. In Switzerland, the waste problem was recognized 60 years ago and back then society's consumption was much lower than it is today. The Swiss currently produce 700 kg of waste per capita per year, That's 2 kg per person per day... I don't know how much garbage is produced in Bali. All I know is that tourists produce a lot of rubbish... But there is still no solution to the garbage problem in Bali...
@@ursdreyer3122 And here the world is thinking places like Switzerland are clean and green paradises 🤣 ... its amazing that throughout Europe incineration is used to dispose of waste but Europe clamps down on citizens who burn wood or natural products like peat for heating there homes .... on another topic the average wage in bali is 99k IDR per hour and for people like nurses you can earn 300M per annum which is nothing in relation to Western standards but if one considers bali standards it works out around 6million a week and given you can get a beach front apt for 600k pw and food for 300k pw and rent a new scooter for maybe 1.5m pw with insurances and all the fruit one is still left with 4m pw to live which is a shite load of money compared to whats left from an average wage package in Western countries .... I ponder places like sulawesi and the potential for a good life for skilled people is amazing depending on ones mind set and wants from life .....
@@ursdreyer3122 on sulawesi i would draw peoples attention to Kristen Hansen the Norwegian who has some amazing travel vlogs where he travelled indo on a motorbike and then Murray Wilkinson the Aussie expat showing Aussie the do and donts of bali and he has an interesting vid one of his latest on a development an Aussie did in bali and the returns on it ... with all this in mind the future of places like bali is mind blowing as to what the future holds and what direction it will take ....
How can people enjoy Bali Holiday when there is so much traffic Jam and Pollution on the island , worst than major cities south east Asia. If you want the beautipful beach and island ? There are so many beautiful beach in Viet nam Philippine, Thailand etc. Why Bali ? overated and exaggeration by tourist and media promote the island. People cant lie and say beautipful bali. Rubbish🤣
Hahha,,and by that you projecting there's no Bali's sibling islands better than places you mentioned above, here's the clues from Bali you could reach Raja Ampat, there's none better diving destination in entire southeast Asia compare to Raja. From Bali you could reach The Mentawais, there's none better surf destination in Southeast Asia compare to the Mentawais, not even close, and from Bali you could reach Kei Islands, there's none finer sand of beaches compare to Kei islands not even Boracay. So, how about that?
Bali punya segalanya. Apapun ada disana baik akomodasi yang super lengkap dan disebut bagaikan gedung serbaguna. Btw: Vietnam, Filipina memiliki Pantai yang sangat indah, Tapi sangat minim akomodasi.para turis, digital nomad,. Pergi ke pulau itu bukan hanya melihat pantai indah...tapi ada yang lainnya seperti : Beach Club, Water park, Air terjun, Naik Gunung, ke hutan, Sawah, Cafe/resto berbagai hidangan kelas dunia sampai kelas lokal, ATV, Snorkeling, Mall, Pembuatan kopi terbaik didunia, safari zoo, Pusat kebugaran yang sangat lengkap, Rafting Adventure, dan bahkan Bioskop pun semua tersedia di Bali 👍
@@terangkehidupan6442dan Bali punya 17,500s sibling islands. Tinggal pilih dari Bali mau lanjut kemana. Biasa mau Projecting, tetangga biasanya itu (most likely Filipino). Kek yg gw tulis di atas mau sampe mampus mereka (tetangga di Asia tenggara) ga akan punya tempat surfing sekelas Mentawais, dan ga akan pernah punya ombak sekonsisten dan sebesar ombak di Uluwatu, cukup itu aja udah buat Bali punya posisi special di Asia tenggara, belum lg yang lainnya.😊😊😊
place is destroyed...been coming to bali since 2007... paradise is ABSOLUTELY lost.... the last healm of peace and tranquility was uluwatu, which is now being invaded by influencers, digital nomads and all the worst white trash tourism you can imagine. Bali is done.
There are small pockets of deep development... And large areas of country... This is called Desa... Good people, good food, beautiful views and beaches.. Bali belly... You just need charcoal tablets. This video is a sneaky ad for travel insurance. I've lived here 35 years. This guy is a wanker.
