If you’re looking for cheap flights to the island paradise of Bali, look no further than Globehunters, where we can compare fares on routes from airports across Australia to ensure that you get the very best deal.
Southeast Asia is becoming an increasingly popular choice of destination for Australian holidaymakers, with its year-round tropical climate and cultural and natural sights, and Bali is no different.
Featuring tropical islands, beautiful stretches of beaches, Buddhist temples and world heritage sites, Bali is a country with great history and cultural diversity.
To begin with, most people visit Bali for its world-renowned beaches, such as Kits, Tanjung Benoa and Lovena, but once you’re here you’ll discover the country has much much more to offer.
Even if you’re not a spiritual person yourself, we definitely recommend visiting the island’s many temples, such as Tanah Lot, which sits on a rock formation overlooking the sea, or Besaki Temple, which stands on the slopes of Mount Agung.
And in the town of Ubud, you can see the lush green Tegallalang Rice Terraces, or meet the grey long-tailed macaques of the Ubud Monkey Centre.
And once the sun goes down, Bali really comes to life, with beach parties, bars and restaurants to enjoy with fellow travellers and locals alike.
