It’s official. The golden beaches, culinary delights and captivating culture of Bali have made this exotic destination the number one holiday spot for outbound Aussie travellers. According to our customer insights at Escape Travel, Bali consistently ranks in the top five international destinations for Australian travellers and is a perennial favourite with our core customers. We’re certainly not surprised that you love Bali and so do we, so here are ten reasons why we believe Bali has hit the top spot.
Fabulous food
World class restaurants line the streets to tempt foodies with everything from fresh seafood and French influenced cuisine to complex Balinese dishes featuring fusion flavours. Celebrated international chefs have been lured by the promise of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, while many flock to Bali as much for the local cooking as the Michelin-starred establishments.
Island time
It’s a tropical playground where the clocks are decidedly set to island time. Aussie visitors feel a kindred spirit to the laid-back lifestyle enjoyed by those in Bali which keeps them coming back time after time.
Convenient flight
At no more than six hours for East coast travellers and under four hours for those on the West coast, it is a manageable international flight that can be taken overnight to maximise time on the ground. Plus, a slick new international airport and cheap transfer options makes for a pleasant transition into holiday mode.
Bali is great value for money where affordable flights and accommodation packages are available in abundance and the cost of living while on the ground is staggeringly cheap. Meals are inexpensive, even at upscale resorts and restaurants, with shopping and entertainment reasonably priced. Even better, spa treatments are cheap enough to indulge in a guilt-free pampering.
