Hi guys, hope you can give some comments on my planned itinerary for honeymoon below after I've compiled some great sharings from you all. I'm not sure if I wanna DIY by hiring a driver or just buy a 4D3N full board tour from Matta Fair. I prefer to stay at Ubud for the kampung feel but it might be too bored because lack of facilities around, I would most probably stay at Kuta or Legian (Adi Dharma or White Rose or All Seasons - pls comment). Appreciates your feedback if my itinerary is a bit pack as I want a relax trip and no rushy one, and hope you guys can recommend me a good driver...

* Does Ibu Oka open for dinner?
* Anyone has tried the flying gurame dinner, how is the taste?
* On the second day, I'm not sure if I have the ample time to go to Besakih or not?

Hi, do you know what is the name of the strawberry shop?

Ibu Oka don't serve dinner. They will be closed on evening.

Aside from Ibu Oka, do u know where else can find nice Babi Guling for dinner since I would be taking lunch at Kintamani

it's called strawberry stop

Since Ubu Oka is the best and most authentic place to try Babi Guling safely, you might want to consider taking a day trip to Ubud while trying their babi guling, provided you spend enough days in Bali, of course.

Lunch at Kintamani is actually just so so, but you can have a nice spot overlooking Mount Batur.

We actually hiked all the way up to Mount Batur for the breathtaking sunrise view :-)

hi there. i just came back from MATTA fair and book Padma Hotel which cost RM978 per person for 4 days. but anyone of you know what is the cheapest way to go to BALI? doesnt matter if i have to use a connecting flight. really appreciate if you could help me..

Geee. RM978/pax meaning RM1956/ 3 nites which is RM652/nite...That's way super expensive!! ..Anyway that hotel is one of few in Kuata/legian wth real beach fronting..The resort is also the broder between kuta/legian..I use to walk past Padma on the way walking from Seminyak beach to Legian 7 thereafter Kuta...Also the beach in between the border something having ceremony...If lucky got real Trai pendet there

Cheapest way for sure Air Asia-lah. ..But be warned hor..Bali via AA something ada flight delay wan.. ..I kena 3 hrs during my 2005 trip..

Hi Stimix, how do you convert the google maps coordinate to GPS coordinate?

well, that the cheapest we can get for a good hotel with a good location. plus, i want both, beach and town area. supposed to take Club Med which they offered buy 1 free 1 but i think im not going to used all the facilities there. oh ya, what is trai pendet? im not sure exactly what to do in bali. suddently bought it without a reason.

yeah, i checked already. the cheapest is aa but afraid will delayed. for mas, the price is rm950 but that is not the lowest fair. so, probably can get a free upgrade if i asked haha.... babi guling sound interesting.

I got 4d3n full board tour staying at Mercure Hotel + extension of 2 nights at Ramayana Hotel for RM1812 (Does not include flight).

which day u checked?

i checked for early DEC.. both AA and MAS around rm500 for return flight le

Oh...definitely will be looking out for that one...thx

airport tax of rp150k is everywhere in indonesia, be it in bali or jakarta. so just reserve sufficient rupiah for it.

And reserve Rp30K if check in luggage for AA.

OK-lah at Padma..i luv that resort too..better location than Hardrock & very near to Hardrock too.. ..What I mean is Tari Pendet 7 not tarian pendet..This dance became the most talk about thing in Indonesia weeks ago bcos Discovery chanel promoting an Advertisement on 'Enigmatic malaysia produced by KRU production of malaysia and that advert featured balinese dancer.."tarian Pendet or tari pendet" ..such a short advert by discovery & thereafter the Negaraku claimed by indon as theirs which lead to the the incident at M'sia embassy last week..

u can try Kunang-Kunang guesthouse, stayed there in July...very good service and super clean room....

only downside is..no swimming pool and no tv
