12 MISTAKES TO AVOID WHEN TRAVELLING BALI 🇮🇩

I've outlined 12 things not to do in Bali so that you can plan accordingly for your trip! Whether you're a budget backpacker, digital nomad or coming on vacation here in Bali, I cover issues about money, scooters and which areas you should avoid so you don't have to make all the mistakes I did when I first arrived here. These are all points I've learnt from my year living in Bali that I want to pass on to you :)

[@jt7510]

Great video!!!

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Thank you!!

[@1027jessi]

I am interested in knowing about the hidden places

[@aribraaa]

Great video man. I think some of the condiments that I bought are still on that pantry :)

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Thank you dude! Haha it wouldn’t surprise me 😂

[@vickythomas1021]

I would love to know 5 of your top off the grid places to see.. O just got my passport and want to see beauty❤

[@tanmayisurampudi6778]

Hey, we're planning our honeymoon around the first week of March 2024 and I'd love to know if it's a good time, because I've read that it can get too humid and wet?
Secondly, we want to have some activities/cultural experiences but also chill at the beach; we're thinking of visiting Ubud and Uluwatu; are these good places to visit for a less touristy vibe while still experiencing Bali's culture? We're only there for 5-6 days so we plan on picking 2 places.

[@wendypolman2408]

What quiet place which is worth visiting do you recommend?

[@libbykey90]

Hi Ryan, would love to see your tips on the less touristy Bali itinerary for 2 weeks? It’s for a honeymoon 🎉

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Hey! If I find some time to sit down and do it I totally will! ♥️🙌

[@niteshsethi8878]

Hey Ryan, loved watching your videos.
Can you help a bit with the itinerary as me n my wife will be in bali with our 2 years old kid.
We will be there for 9 nights.

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Hey I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos!
If you’re only in Bali for 9 nights and with kids then I would recommend slower travel. I would probably spend half the time in Uluwatu visiting the most beautiful beaches in Bali and then the other half of the time in Ubud where you can do more cultural activities and see some waterfalls and rice terraces 😁

[@adamdabrowski6682]

I am going there in may
Any chance you to show me real Bali please?

[@bharathkumar840]

What are the places to visit ?

[@casaraku1]

anywhere in the world wear a helmet even on bikes, cement, rocks and metal is harder than your head. Practice in the morning or quiet area before with your rented scooter....as for food why travel the world to eat crap... the local stuff is fresher, affordable and many vegetarian options.. avoid food washed in tap water..

[@sujaraj6367]

Hi how are you? I’m about to apply an tourist visa but need one sponsor from Bali . Unfortunately I have no one there . Do you have any idea please?
Regards Gani

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Hey! You don’t need a sponsor for a tourist visa. You only need a sponsor if you want a work visa

[@sujaraj6367]

@@RyanLeeBanks thanks but I have travel document not a an ordinary passport. my application got rejected. the embassy said if you have sponsor from local you can get the visa. I booked the ticket and all now they rejected. I don’t know what to do

[@RyanLeeBanks]

This is a very unique position you’re in that I don’t know any information about. You would be best off contacting your immigration services or embassy to get official advice.

[@noname18789]

Where is the recommended hidden place? :O

[@RyanLeeBanks]

I’m not sure what you’re referring to, I can’t remember what I said 😂

[@Ajeman845]

Fkn Right ! > Orang Indonesia di Toronto, Canada

[@LilithEveMaria]

Yes, about the language. Based on my experience, mostly tourists from Russia expect that all locals can say perfect English. They're going to give bad reviews about Oh, they can't give me the answer perfectly. LoL..POS

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Yup! So many people expect the locals to be able to speak perfect English and I have no idea why…

[@elenascaglia6344]

Not eat too much nasi goreng 😱😱😱

[@RyanLeeBanks]

We will have to find the spicy one!

[@souske1990]

I did not know that so many cell phone snatcher in Bali, I thought only the monkeys do that.

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Monkeys do it too! But yes, be careful on scooters

[@apollux012]

Ok what I saw: Get a tattoo 😂

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Always get a tattoo 😂

[@rahuljaiswal7390]

Can we smoke weed

[@RyanLeeBanks]

Not in Bali, but in Thailand you can
