Planning a Bali holiday from the UK

Bali is a long way from the UK, so most people stay for ten nights or more. A popular plan is to start in Ubud, among the rice fields and temples, then finish on the coast in Seminyak, Canggu or Uluwatu.

There are no direct flights, but one-stop routes through the Gulf or Asia work well, and many travellers add a stopover on the way.

Where to stay

Ubud is green, peaceful and full of culture. Seminyak and Canggu have beach clubs, cafés and sunsets. Uluwatu has dramatic cliffs and surf, and Nusa Dua is calm and family friendly.

Villas with private pools are great value in Bali, especially for couples and small groups.
