This news is not from our local news but from my regular supir/driver in Bali. And this was last week he told me when he is sending his malaysian customer to surabaya.

Supirs and tour people making a killing out of this. Was quoted 3-4mil a car(4 pax) to bring us from bali to surabaya.

yup. my friend took 15 hours of bus and ferry ride.

I don’t want to have the same problem/hassles. Cancel is the best solution.

That’s how they make money..

Hi,

I will be traveling to Bali this Thursday. Anyone went there recently? How's the condition after the eruption?

Anybody is staying at Bali at the moment? Mind to update the status?

Thanks.

Any update?

I have no idea.. but i think the situation should be better right.. there are no news saying the condition is deteriorating also.

Should be ok la kot. Asked my driver/supir in bali he said everything is ok and also waiting for malaysian at the aiport.

Check my last few post. Follow the few essential twitter links. Can up to date on the situation. And the live youtube link on mt agung as well to see the condition.

Checked. at night can see the smoke is visible and clear.

Yup, truth is it's still rumbling on. Red lava can be seen reflecting on the smoke/ash/steam coming out from the top at nights if the skies are clear.
Just to be clear, IT IS SAFE to visit bali right now as the southern tip of the tourist area, like kuta/seminyak/canggu/uluwatu/nusadua/sanur are all very clear of the volcanic area(about 50 - 80km away) .

The MAIN problem is the risk of getting stuck in the airport if when the time comes for you depart and the ash clouds decides to blow east and closes denpasar airport again.

So, if you are the type who worries about these things? better don't go right now. Especially if you're travelling with kids.

Fantastic. I will be departing tomorrow with my family. I will update the situation there if anything.

Have fun & Good luck.
Don't worry much. Just like me, when you get there and out on the street, you'll see that most people and tourist alike don seem to worry about the whole thing much. Enjoy aje.

Yeap. Will do.

Thanks mate.

Thanks again for the useful links.

Yeah man, my man concerned are the kids.

Enjoy! And do update how’s it there 😊

Forgot to mentioned this. Raining almost everyday while i was there. Booring. When it didnt rain, its cloudy. Very sien

Np. Like i said, had i known, i would've went looking for pad thai instead. The volcano, the rain & cloudy weather was a major bummer.

I missed thailand too. But I opt for nha trang, vietnam to replace my bali trip. Heard it is nice there. How nice? God knows.. 🤣
