Have you been to Bali?

[OHNO!]

Actually I've been in and out of their website since this afternoon but their online booking system is down. I even e-mailed customer service to inform them

akala ko ako *** nakaka experience nun, walang lumalabas na Select Flights, di ko tuloy makita kung magkano.

[ThAHuStLa]

^So when are you planning to go there OHNO ?

[OHNO!]

I decided to just take the Kuala Lumpur - Bali route. I have a 14 hr stopover at KL (5pm - 7am) DO you guys think I can still take a quick city glimpse and mini-tour?

[OHNO!]

check out Twin towers (petronas), KCC Mall (well it's a mall, but it's nice). ok sana pumunta ng Putra Jaya, kaso mejo late ka na, . . . wala na sigurong tours ng ganong oras. Ok sana kung umaga yan, makapunta ka pa sana ng Genting hehe. . .

ThAHuStLa, 5PM is too late to be able to get inside Petronas sky bridge but you may still see the towers at night while its all lighted up. Which hotel are you staying at? I guess you can only take a stroll down Bukit Bintang or probably go to Petaling St. for some bargains.

I'm planning to stay at Agora Hotel. I was thinking of getting a real "backpacker" deal since I'm only planning to stay there for 4-5 hrs of sleep. Do you think I'll be able to find like a hostel that would offer rates that would run from 70-100 ringgit?

Actually, what I'm planning to do is from LCCT (airport for Airasia), I'll go straight to KLCC for some photos then head straight to my hotel in Bintang have dinner and a few drinks then back to the hotel again. After which I'll just ride a cab back to KL Sentral and take the bus back to LCCT. I'm getting all nervous now! Yikes

Even lower than RM70 a night, that is if you really want backpacker type hostels. Check this out:

Also, experience local cuisine at Jalan Alor. The street runs parallel to BB, about a block away from Agora.

Does anybody know what are the indonesian local airlines that flies from Batam to Bali?

[sabine92575]

is there a cheap accommodation in bali? a backpackers' inn or a lodge will do. i found a website about hostels but i would prefer a recommendation from anyone here. thanks!

Does anybody know what are the indonesian local airlines that flies from Batam to Bali?

daYafter, in my previous posts, i said that there is a direct flight from Batam to Danpasar via Adam Air. My mistake, I confirmed it from someone, there is none. Perhaps the sure way to get to Denpasar from Batam would be via Garuda.

It is always cheaper to take a flight from Batam instead of Singapore. The ferry from Singapore to Batam (one way ) costs a little over 500 pesos.

good luck on your trip.

Sharing some pics from my trip to Bali last weekend:



Kuta Beach: Surf's Up.

Kuta Beach is best known for being the back-packers beach. Back-packer hotels are called 'poppies', and line most of the streets. When Indonesians say that shopping is good in Bali, they mean that the stuff you can buy there is almost similar to what you can find in Boracay. Lots of Europeans, Japanese, Australians. Clubs in the Kuta district can get pretty wild. Normal admission is 50,000 rupiah, comes with a free beer (Foster's or VB) or a Coke. Bikini contests practically in all clubs.
