Hello peepo, I've been receiving many messages from friends and even strangers ask about my Bali Trip. And I've posted a Chinese version blog post about my Bali itinerary but my lovely Muslim friends and friends who can't read Chinese told me I should come up a English version so that everyone can read hahaha XD So here you go~
Okayyyyy This 4Ddays3Nights Bali itinerary covers things to do and the best restaurants and cafes to go to! Before I start to talk about my itinerary... I wanted to declare that this Bali trip is not Dee Best or most complete Bali Tour but its definitely Chillax Bali Getaway for both of us~ This trip boo say he wants a chill and relax getaway, so I gave him a super Chillax virgin Bali experience~ Which means I only focus on hipster cafes and restaurants, Great Villas with private pool, Mother Nature, Sunset & Beaches!
Flight Ticket
We bought Return Flight Ticket for RM1300 2pax. which incl. 20 kg baggage. We also bought travel insurance just in case our flight might delay due to the Volcano explosion issue on that time which cost us around RM75 for two people.
Accommodation
Well well well~ After searching and searching and forever searching...finally I decided to book ➢
Aksata Villa instead of Puri Beji B&B for our stay in Canggu. Choosing between this two villa was so STRUGGLE! Puri Beji is super nice but the pool is public pool but Aksata Villa is Private Pool so.. yeah... Aksata Villa I Choose You~
We book our accommodations at ➢
Booking.com and it's required prepayment so we dont have to bring thousands thousands of Rupiah to there~ But you guys, one thing you should know before you book hotel at booking.com especially when you book hotel at oversea. Booking.com charge according to the local currency, the MYR price shown in booking.com website is just ESTIMATE Price. NOT NETT Price.
So, one night in Aksata cost me RM 550 something which included a room service breakfast~ This price is worthy for the nice view nice bed nice staff nice service. They try to give us a best experience in Canggu haha cos my phone kena ragut at the First fucking Day in Canggu! They even drive us to police station and waited there for almost 2 fucking hours together with us and also give us a room service call to show their concern. Man I was fucking frustrated and cry like hell when I back to Villa. First Day in Bali Shit Thing Happened ~ But Anyway Anyhow it doesn't ruin my excitement for the next few days to explore Bali~
Okay, now talk about my stay in Seminyak, Villa Kayu Raja which is also booked it from booking.com. Two nights for RM750 no Breakfast included. Private Pool checked, Two Storey Villa checked, complete amenities checked, Jacuzzi Bathtub checked!
Jacuzzi Bathtub is a Bomb!
Next time I want a Jacuzzi Bathtub in my room.
Imagine myself enjoying Jacuzzi and Netflix at the same time~

These photos tell no lies Okayy? Ya knaw What I Mean?
I cannot resist the Jacuzzi Bathtub ~~ GAWD!

Eat, Play & Shopping
|
This is how we go
From Canggu to Seminyak and to Ubud |
I must say not everything in Bali is cheap, but you still can find cheap stuff cheap food at certain place like Canggu as there are lesser tourist but more local people. I bought a Ratan Bag from a shop at Ubud for 180k Rupiah which means around RM50 something. Well that place have not much tourist actually. But when I go to Seminyak and Ubud Art market which have more tourists, the cheapest Ratan Bag I found cost 220k Rupiah at least.
BEACHES & SUNSETS are Must Do in Bali. Chilling at the Seminyak beach, live band, cheap Bintang beer, watching Sun goes down, Y'all call it a moment. I call it life. cited from Pitbull - Feel This Moment lyric. lol
A restaurant just across of the road of Ubud Art Market
My Room Service Breakfast at Aksata Villa
Breakfast at Villa Kayu Raja
At Cabina Bali
Other than that, Babi Guling is a Must EAT in Bali if you are not Muslim or vegetarian.
There are plenty of famous Babi Guling in town but Boo and I decided to try Babi Guling Pak Malen which located at Sunset Road. After a hella terrific traffic, we finally pulled up into Babi Guling Pak Malen, we were greeted with full of people outside the shop and inside is crowded as well. The food is Delicious ~ I love the pork satay and crunchy pig skin.
I found some famous Warung that sell Babi Guling as reference.
1. Warung Babi Guling Sanur
2. Warung Babi Guling Ibu Oka (Ubud)
3. Babi Guling Pak Malen (Seminyak)
If you are not a fan of Babi Guling, good news. Bali has been known for "Best Hipster Cafes" & Instagrammable Cafes especially Canggu has been recognized as "Hipster Paradise of Bali"
where you can find the best Hipster Cafes and Instagram worthy cafes where you cannot miss!
Now you must be heard of or seen people sharing on Facebook about Floating Breakfast. Yup, here in Bali you can experience your virgin Floating Breakfast at certain cafes such as Cabina Bali or Panama Pool & Kitchen.
Price Range for these cafe is similar to Cafes in KL and Bangsar area~ So it's consider Affordable lah since we can afford KL price right? hahaha XD
Our budget to spend on Food for each day is RM 100 except the third day, we spent around RM100
for a luxury dinner at La Favela as I wanted a perfect ending for our trip. And this place didn't let me down, it is awesome because the outside of the shop is full of green plants which seems like a normal shop but inside is huge, vintage interior design, a small pond and the background music makes everything on point.
In fact, this place is a Restaurant in Day time and Club in Night time~ Oh, and it located in the middle of party central – Kuta.

Truth be told, Kuta is a party central, cheap beers, bars, restaurants and most importantly it is a Shopping paradise to me, hahaha bought a swimsuit which cost me RM160. But there's one thing everybody used to say Everything is Cheap in Bali...well I don't think is everything but just certain are cheap. The price range is similar to KL price range. So if you want to shop yes, prepare thousands thousands of Rupiah.
Teggalalang Rice Terrace @Ubud
Must Try Mad Pops Vegan Ice Cream at Kuta~ Very Famous Instagrammable Ice Cream Shop in Seminyak!
So,I was anticipating a really chilled out, laze around by the private pool or seaside holiday but the little adventure junkie in me excitedly agreed to many other activities and we ended up slotting hiking and waterfall into the itinerary. Nonetheless, it was an amazing trip with a little bit of everything, great company and way too much food.
When you talk about Seminyak famous beach definitely mean Kuta Beach, this beach is so happening at evening onward. There is live band, local kids playing volley ball, full of tourists at outdoor restaurant and bars. We spend our second day in Bali at Seminyak, after we shop and explore Kuta street, we went to the beach and find a restaurant to rest & watch Sunset at Kuta Beach.
So pretty! Halo~
We went Ubud on our Third Day in Bali. To be frank this one day Ubud tour was super exhausted because we had to wake up at 7 am and meet our drive at 8am to depart to Ubud. We first went to Waterfall and next to Tegallang Rice Terrace, Ubud Art Market and last stop is Bali Swing.
We reach Waterfall at morning 9:30 something and the weather was so nice due to raining in the early morning, but unfortunately the waterfall was not allow to swim because the water level increased due to the rain.
Whole day we have to walk a lot... staircases, hills and rocks most importantly is the long hour car ride with the bumpy and small village road.
This is my 4-Day Bali Itinerary ~
Transportation
About my transportation in Bali, I often received messages ask me how I travel in Bali, Is there Uber or Grab in Bali? How much for the airport transfer service? Is it All destination are walking distance from my Villa? What's the price?
So here are the answers~
Q. How I travel in Bali?
A. In Canggu, we rent a motorbike but we take Bluebird Taxi in Seminyak, personally I'm not encourage you to travel with a motorbike since the traffic in Bali is CRAZY, Drivers are rude. If your skill is good then go ahead but if you are not familiar with motorbike don't go for it or else you'll gonna pee in pants. This gives me a Culture Shocked, the airport shuttle service driver told us the traffic in Bali is a culture, everyone just honk like non stop. Besides that, it is not safety, if you want to Vlog or take photo or video, please dont take motorbike, because my phone was robbed by a fucktard while I using the Waze! And that was a scary memory for me until now, bad experience indeed. We spent whole night in Police station on our first day.
If you take taxi, please be alert as there are authentic and fake taxi. The authentic taxi is called Bluebird Taxi, the fake one look similar to the Bluebird taxi as the color is Blue too. You might get confused by the color, but you can differentiate by the name and logo.
Q. Uber/ Grab car in Bali?
A. They are available in Bali and Government did not ban Uber/Grab. But, local taxi drivers and people who operate travel business anti Uber and Grab and they even held protest to ask Government to ban the operation of Uber/Grab in Bali. So you better don't let them see or let them know you call Uber or take Uber car.
I've read a local news, a Uber driver was beaten by Taxi driver in Bali. So tourists, y'all better watch out okay?
Q. How much for the Airport shuttle service?
A. The price he gave me is 400k Rupiah. You can rent car & motorbike or book a tour service from him~

Q. How much for your Ubud tour?
A. It cost me 500K Rupiah for a customize tour ~ You can go wherever you want to go and you just have to inform them your destinations so that they can arrange for you. Best option for those who want a no driving & carefree getaway~

So overall expenses is around RM4000++ for two person. But the shopping I personally spent RM 300 something which I didn't include into the itinerary. hahaha XD It is very hard to calculate the precise amount we spent actually, because we are too lazy to walk and I dont know how much exactly we spend on Taxi ! "laugh my ass off dy"
Below are the expenses for both of us.
