What people love about Christmas & New Year Tours in Bali
- Vietnam to Bali: A Journey Through History and Beauty 14-Day
Overall the trip was great. Tour guide Tin Tin in Ho Chi Minh City is very professional and helpful. He knows everything and is informative, which made our days there easy and interesting. Hotels and internal flights were smooth throughout. Thank you to the Legend Travel Team for bringing us closer to Vietnam and Bali. A comfortable, well-run journey we would happily book again. Highly recommend!
- Indonesia Uncovered - Bali & Yogyakarta in 10 Days
It was a very good tour. Maybe 4 1/2 stars. Except the communication skills of the guide in Bali need improvement. Also, when we were in Besakih temple, it rained really hard but the guide decided we should go back to our car anyway. The risk for slipping or falling was great but no harm done. Our Yogyakarta trip was excellent.
- Bali Soft Adventure, Private Tour
The trip was excellent! Every detail went smoothly, tour guide Dwii was informed and intuned to all our desires. Our driver Made use feel safe on the busy cycled filled roads. This tour covered the scope of Bali

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. For those seeking island parties the Natya Resort on Gili TrawanganourRadar traveler noted "Staying at the Sikara in Lombok provided the perfect blend of festive atmosphere and peaceful retreat during the holiday season."
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."
