What people love about Christmas & New Year Tours in Bali
We recently returned from our trip “Bali Private Tours All Inclusive”. This was a ten day tour with our own private guide/driver. This is the only way we travel now as TourRadar has spoiled us with such incredible values that we can afford to travel this way. At first, I was skeptical to use TourRadar because the prices were so low. We took the opportunity to try last December with a private tour of Morocco. It was spot on and I would recommend this company to even my wealthiest of friends. Our second trip to Bali, was just as amazing. We missed our final flight into Bali and lost a day coming through Seoul Korea. Being a private tour, they were able to readjust our tour so we still got to see everything. Our guides were very knowledgeable and very accommodating to our requests. Also, they were accommodations were first class. We thoroughly enjoyed the quality of the hotels and well as the incredible staff and delicious cuisine. Prior to and during the trip, Putu was great to response to my questions and concerns. That gave great comfort that we were going to have a wonderful experience. While all driver/guides did a great job, Rukun was exceptional. Being over 65, we opted to not go on the white water rafting trip.. Rukun surprised us by dropping us for massage! It’s one thing to be excellent, but it’s another thing to be exceptional. That’s what our trip was, exceptional.

- 7 Days in Bali: A Journey Through Paradise
I was very satisfied. The driver was always on time. Everything was arranged. I could make some adjustments in the itinerary.
We loved the different experiences we had during our tour. Especially the first day with the village experience / rice patties, white-water rafting, and monkey forest. One negative - we upgraded our hotel and that changed from staying in Ubud for 3 nights and then Kuta for 3 nights to staying in Kuta the whole time. We loved our time and activities in the north and would rather have stayed there. We never would have upgraded if we knew that now not only wouldn’t we stay in Ubud, but that we’d have to travel a lot if hours in the car each day (and even worse for our guide Gusti who had to drive back and forth from Ubud to Kuta twice each day. A the very least we should have been told that the hotel change would mean changing the location we were to stay in.

The main celebration hubs are Kuta Seminyak and Nusa Dua. Ubud's Puri Garden Hotel features traditional Balinese ceremonies while beachfront spots in Jimbaran serve special Christmas meals.

What's the weather like in Bali during Christmas & New Year?
December brings Bali's wet season with quick afternoon showers that rarely affect tour schedules. Temperatures stay warm between 25-30°C (77-86°F) in popular spots like Kuta Ubud and Nusa Dua. Most morning activities at Tegalalang Rice Terraces and Mount Batur get clear skies. A TourRadar traveler noted: "Despite being rainy season we had perfect weather for our Christmas Day trip to Nusa Penida and New Year's Eve celebration at Tanah Lot."
How far in advance should I book a Christmas & New Year tour in Bali?
Book your holiday tour 6-8 months ahead as this period sees peak demand. Places like The Sakala Resort Bali and Puri Gangga Resort & Spa in Ubud often reach full capacity by mid-year. Booking data shows travelers reserve 291 days ahead on average with luxury spots like The Crystal Luxury Bay Resort Nusa Dua filling even earlier. As one TourRadar traveler mentioned "I booked my New Year's tour 8 months ahead and was glad I did - many hotels were already fully booked."
What unique activities are offered during Christmas & New Year tours?
The season brings special events alongside regular activities. Visitors can join festive cooking classes at Samsara Living Museum take New Year's Day sunrise hikes up Mount Batur or go on Christmas Day snorkeling trips to Crystal Bay. Many tours include holiday dinners at venues like The Phoenix Hotel Yogyakarta serving both Balinese and Western dishes. One TourRadar traveler mentioned "The Christmas Eve dinner at Lynn Hotel followed by a New Year's Day sunrise hike at Mount Batur was unforgettable."
How much should I budget for additional expenses during a Christmas & New Year tour in Bali?
Plan for 50-75 USD daily beyond tour costs. This covers extras like Parasailing Adventure at Tanjung Benoa (30 USD) holiday feasts (40-60 USD) and shopping trips to places like Celuk Village's silver workshops. As mentioned by a TourRadar traveler: "While most activities were included I spent extra on special Christmas Eve dinner at Jimbaran Beach and New Year's Eve celebrations but it was totally worth it."
