What people love about Christmas & New Year Tours in Bali
The tour was great and the sites visited were amazing. My guide was Gede, and he did an amazing job explaining the history and background of the places we visited. The hotels were good and conveniently located. I really enjoyed the trip and highly recommend it to anyone wanting to visit Bali and see Borobudur and Prambanan.
Amazing Bali 10 Days - Ubud/ Yogyakarta/ Seminyak
- 7 Days Bali and Gili Islands Epic Experience
The itinerary was good, but I have few suggestions: Not to go temple with aggressive monkeys but to replace it with visit to GSW (?) park that somewhere closer. Also no need to go to bar and the beach - just the beach would be sufficient. Rice field is total waste of time, instead royal palace and garden+market and/or museum of art would be much more interesting and require less time in the car. I would also suggest to replace hotel in Kuta with another one in Legion or Seminiak- where there is beach that it is possible to swim. Maybe it is also worth to replace hotel in Gili to Pearl. The tour director was very nice and helpful but the guide was bad- we could not understand 1/2 of what he was saying. I have noticed that other, younger guides, have much better English.

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."
