Jakarta is the capital of Indonesia and also the most big city, which is geographically located on northwest coast islands of Java. Its population is more than 9.5 million people. Here you can meet people of different religious views - Protestants, Catholics, Buddhists, Hindus. But the largest percentage are Muslims.

Island

Bali, in turn, is an island located in the Malay Archipelago. It is surrounded on almost all sides water world. So, from the southern part it is washed by Indian Ocean, from the north – the sea of Bali Pacific Ocean, on the east it is divided by the Lombok Strait with the island of Lombok, and on the west it is separated from the island of Java by the strait of the same name.

The population of Bali as of 2014 was just over 4 million 220 thousand people. Religion – Hindus. That is why there are frequent conflicts on religious grounds with the rest of the population of the country, where Muslims predominate.

The distance between the capital of Indonesia and the resort island is just over 1,100 kilometers. So how do you get from Jakarta to Bali? Today you can use the following types of transport:

Airplane.
Bus.
Ferry.

You can view suitable travel options and buy tickets in advance on the website.

Airplane

If you don’t want to travel for a long time around the island of Java from Jakarta to Bali, then the fastest and in a convenient way there will be a plane ride. But first, of course, you need to get to the airport, for which you should take a bus or order a transfer.

By bus of the Damri carrier company the trip will last 1 hour, and by taxi 25 minutes. Next is the direct flight from Jakarta airport to Denpasar airport. Travel time will be 1.5 hours. The first flight leaves at half past five in the morning. The last one is at 21:40.

6 companies work in this direction every day:

Garuda Indonesia;
Lion Mentari Airlines;
Sriwijaya Air;
Citilink Indonesia;
Batik Air;
Indonesia Asia.

Then, using the services of the Kura-Kura bus company, take a bus to resort town Kuta, which is on the southern part of the island of Bali. The duration of the trip is 13 minutes, and the frequency of bus departures is every 10 minutes.

The second option with an airplane looks like this. Take the Damri bus to Jakarta Halim Perdana Kusuma Airport. The journey will take 45 minutes. Next, with the help of carriers Citilink Indonesia or Batik Air, fly to Denpasar Airport. Travel time will be 1 hour 45 minutes. Flights depart daily. The first is at 8:50 am, the last is at 21:50 pm. Then take a bus to the city of Kuta.

In this case, you will also need to take a bus to Jakarta Airport (CGK). From there fly to settlement Blimbimgsari in 1.5 hours. Flights are operated daily by Garuda Indonesia and NAM Air. The first flight is at 7:05 am. The last one is at 15:10 in the afternoon. Next, you will need to drive from Blimbimgsari (BWX) to Ketapang for about 30 kilometers, which will take 25 minutes.

Train – Airplane

There is another interesting way to get from Jakarta to Bali by train and plane. First you need to railway station From Jakarta, take a train ticket to the city of Bandung. Transportation services in this direction are provided by Kereta API. Departures occur every three hours. The train journey on this route takes 3 hours. There are 3 classes of carriages:

Then in Bandung tourists usually get to the local airport. Distance – 3.7 kilometers. You can get there by taxi in 4 minutes.

Lion Mentari Airlines;
Citilink Indonesia;

Garuda Indonesia;
NAM Air.

Take a flight to Denpasar. Flights operate every day from 10:20 am to 15:55 pm. Depending on the chosen carrier, the flight time will be 1 hour 30-45 minutes. From Denpasar, as described above, by bus to the town of Kuta.

Train – bus

This option is for those people who are not in a big hurry and are willing to spend more than 20 hours on the road. At the Jakarta bus station, you need to take a Kereta API bus, which will take you to the village of Surabaya Pasar Turi. From there you will have to walk 2 kilometers to Agen Peneleh in Terminal Ubung; the journey takes 25 minutes. Then buy a bus ticket again to Denpasar, which arrives at Terminal Ubung.

This city route in Bali is served by operators such as Wisata Komodo (11 hours 22 minutes on the road) and Gunung Harta (12 and a half hours on the road). Flight departure frequency is once a day. The terminal is located 3 kilometers from Denpasar, so you can hire a taxi or order a transfer through special services.

Bus

There are also travel options from Jakarta to Bali by bus only. In the first case, you need to take a Damri bus and get from Gambir Station to Jakarta Halim Perdana Kusuma. This carrier will then take you to Pulo Gebang Terminal. Here you will have to use the services of Palaha Kancana or Kramat Djati.

The first one will deliver its passengers to final destination to Terminal Ubung in Denpasar in 25 and a half hours. But the ticket price will be higher than that of the second carrier, which will deliver in 31 hours and 30 minutes. Both one company and the other have flights departing twice daily.

In the second case, you need to get from Jakarta to the bus station of the same name, the distance to which is 10 kilometers. The journey will take 10 minutes. From Jakarta Bus Station, take the Safari Dharma Raya bus, which will take you to Denpasar Bus Station in 34 hours and 40 minutes. From there you can hire a taxi to get directly into the city itself. It is 5.7 kilometers and 5 minutes on the road.

Car – Ferry

Finally, another way to travel from Jakarta to Bali: how to get there and how long to travel? This option is not as fast as by plane, but not as long as by bus.

To do this, you need to travel 1042 kilometers by car from Jakarta to Ketapang. Travel time is about 13 hours. There, take a ferry operated by the Indonesia Ferry company, and in 30 minutes it will take its passengers to Gilimanuk. And from Gilimanuk you will need to drive 126 kilometers to Denpasar, which will take 1 hour 50 minutes.

In this article I will tell you how you can get from Bali to Jakarta and back.

Airplane

If you have a short two-week vacation and do not want to travel around Java, then I would recommend flying Bali-Jakarta and Jakarta-Bali to save time. It's funny that a plane ticket and a bus ticket will cost about the same: $30 - $40.

Cheap plane tickets Jakarta-Bali and Bali-Jakarta

Direct bus

Bus tickets can be purchased both at travel agencies and online. Air-conditioned bus tickets cost IDR 480,000 - IDR 550,000. Official version, that the journey takes about 24 hours, but it seems to me that it could be longer, this is Asia :) The bus makes several stops. In Jakarta, the bus departs from Jembatan Baru, Terminal Pulogadung, Terminal Pulogadung, Terminal Pulogadung stations. In Bali, the bus departs from stations in Ubud and Denpassar.

Our trip

We couldn’t find information about whether it was possible to take a direct Bali-Jakarta bus somewhere halfway along the route, for example, in the area of the Ijen volcano (we were going right to it), so we had to be content with non-tourist city transport and go with transfers.

I'll tell you how we drove, but this is not an ideal option. But just one of many.

Car from Canggu area, Bali to northwest Bali.
The Bali-Java ferry costs a penny, I don’t remember the exact price, the journey takes 40 minutes. It runs once every 1 hour. As far as I know, the ferry operates 24 hours a day.
Port Banyuwangi - Probolinggo, 150,000 rupees, journey 5.5 hours. A broken-down bus without air conditioner.
Probolinggo - Surabaya, 20,000 rupees, travel time 2.5 hours. Excellent modern bus with air conditioning.
Surabaya - Jakarta, 280,000 rupees, travel time 17 hours. Excellent modern bus with air conditioning.

You can also get from Denpassar, Bali and to the port of Banyuwangi (near the Ijen volcano) by bus. The recommended buses are Indonesia Abadi, Margahayu, DAMRI or Akas, which go from Denpassar to Surabaya. If the volcano is not interesting to you, then, accordingly, you can go to the final Surabaya.

There is a direct bus from Banyuwangi port to Jakarta for 480,000 rupees. The driver gave the travel time as 28 hours. The downside is that there is only 1 bus after lunch, at 7 pm. We arrived in Banyuwangi in the morning and we didn’t want to wait for the evening, so we went on the stage. And in the end we got there in 25 hours. In terms of money, both a direct bus and one with 2 transfers were the same - $34.

And now a little more about our bus trip

What to expect from government buses plying in Java? Firstly, they are very different, there are both ancient jalopies and high-quality modern buses, which are a pleasure to ride. We rode both the first and the second :) Tickets can be purchased on the spot directly on the buses or at the bus station. The locals speak a little English, but more often than not, not understanding us, they began to mutter something in their own language.

The route Surabaya - Jakarta (Jakarta) was the longest, 17 hours. There were soft comfortable seats that fell back, places for suitcases and curtains on the windows so that the sun would not interfere.

We most likely overpaid for the ticket to Probolinggo, but for the ticket to Jakarta we got a little discount. So here, like in a market, you have to bargain. We have rarely seen this; usually in Asia there are no problems with fixed prices for intercity buses. Lots of helpers, bus vendors and musicians - everything here is as usual in Asia :) Sometimes unobtrusive music plays or a movie is shown on TV.

What else can I say - we blew the laptop. At one of the stops between Surabaya and Jakarta, while we, like everyone else on our bus, were having lunch in a cafe, some scoundrel took one of our laptops out of his backpack, put a thick magazine in its place and was gone. Of course, it's our own fault for leaving a valuable item unattended, so we only have ourselves to blame. A couple of days later we already bought a new laptop, but the unpleasant aftertaste from the bus trip in friendly Java remained. Having discovered the loss, we asked one of the passengers to call the police. A couple of minutes later we arrived at the station, the police searched every bag, but found nothing. The thief, having stolen the laptop, probably never returned to the bus. The passengers on our bus were very sympathetic to us, willingly helped the police in the search and reacted quite calmly to the unforeseen delay on the way. In short, when leaving the transport even for a short time, take all valuables with you. And this story will be a science for us, otherwise we, having traveled by bus all over Sri Lanka and sailed on ferries in the Philippines, completely relaxed and stopped being on guard. Like, everything was always top-notch, we didn’t expect a set-up from Indonesia, oh, we didn’t expect it. But now we’ll be on watch again, there’s no need to relax :)

Jakarta – main city Indonesia, its capital. It is located in northwest Java and is just over 1000 km from the island of Bali.

This will allow you to choose the best option for yourself.

As everywhere else, the most comfortable and at the same time quick way travel - plane. To get from Jakarta to its airport, you can use buses or transfers. The bus travels for about an hour. This distance can be covered in about 25 minutes. You can order a transfer to the airport.

There you wait for the ferry. Transportation is carried out by Indonesia Ferry. You will swim on water for only half an hour, after which you will get to Gilimanuk. The city is 125 kilometers away from Denpasar, which is another 2 hours on the road.

In this article we have covered everything possible ways independent travel from Jakarta to Bali. As we can see, the fastest is an airplane. But the bus ride will be the most tiring. Traveling by personal vehicle will be the most exciting and educational, but not everyone can rent a car. Study all the advantages and disadvantages of these trips and choose the one that is closest to you.

There are many options for organizing a holiday on the island of Bali.

The first and not the most reasonable, in my opinion, is to buy a ticket from a travel agency. Of course, sometimes there are interesting offers due to the so-called “hot spots”, but the biggest disadvantages of such a holiday will await you ahead. We will talk about this in the following articles. I'll just say that independent holiday(flight plus hotel), it will cost you 20-30% cheaper compared to a tour package. Not being tied to one vacation spot opens up completely different opportunities to see the island at its best.

Logistics – flight options to Bali.

The final point of your route will be Nura Rai Airport, Denpasar, Bali (DPS – IATA code), .

The best departure airport for many residents of the Russian Federation will be Moscow, due to the best prices for air tickets. I don’t think there’s any need to explain how to get to Moscow from your city.

Option one

Flight with one airline with a connection at any airport along the route. Typically, such air carriers belong to the segment of companies with the highest standards of service. According to the international rating they are called 4-5 star companies: Cathay Pacific Airways, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Etihad Airways. Accordingly, these carriers operate flights with stops in Hong Kong, Doha, Singapore, Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Connection time options may vary and usually the cost of tickets depends on this. If your layover is more than 9 hours, usually many airlines provide hotel, meals or organize excursions.

The last time we used Qatar Airways, there was one moment that was not significant for us, but due to the fault of this airline, they forgave us for more than 20 kg of excess baggage (for which we were prepared to pay a tidy sum) and provided us with a free business lounge at the Singapore airport.

This flight option will cost 1000 - 1300 dollars per person, round trip and will take longer than 15 hours one way.

Second option

Choose a flight to an intermediate airport in South-East Asia. Usually to Jakarta (JKT) - the capital of Indonesia, Kuala Lumpur (KUL) - the capital of Malaysia, Bangkok (BKK) - the capital of Thailand and Singapore (SIN) and other Asian cities.

This flight option will cost 600 - 900 dollars.

Next, from the places indicated above, a flight with “low-cost” or budget airlines is selected. However, you shouldn’t paint yourself a gloomy picture that if it’s a budget airline, then that’s it: the wing falls off, the staff is rude, the food is disgusting and other delights for your money.

In fact: the planes are brand new, the staff is friendly and the service is excellent. A striking example of an Asian low-cost company is AirAsia, a Malaysian airline. According to SKYTRAX (a UK consulting company that annually publishes a rating best airlines world), AirAsia has been recognized as the world's best low-cost airline for the fifth year in a row. We ourselves use AirAsia services very often and are very satisfied.

Here is the website of this airline http://www.airasia.com

Local airlines also fly from Jakarta to Bali and there are quite a lot of flights per day: BatikAir, Indonesia AirAsia, LionAir, Sriwijaya Air, Tiger Air (formerly Mandala Air).

The cost of the flight in this case will cost 50-150 dollars, round trip.

In total, the second option with flights on two airlines can cost 650 - 1050 dollars round trip.

Also, to the advantages of a combined flight you can add the opportunity to visit other countries by transit visa, for example Singapore.

Third option

Direct flight on a charter flight of a domestic airline. If you consider the time spent on the flight, this is the most profitable option, just 12 hours from Moscow and you are in Bali. Such tickets can sometimes be bought on the websites of some tour operators or searched on Turdom http://www.turdom.ru. Usually these are last-minute offers on air tickets, that is, unpurchased seats in charter flight. This happens because one of the tourists refused the trip.

To offset costs, domestic airlines sometimes offer such tickets at reasonable price from 800 to 1000 dollars.

How to select tickets, where to look for them and how to issue them.

To search for air tickets, there are many convenient services - aggregators. Below I will tell you about the best service that we ourselves use.

is one of the best air ticket aggregators available today.

Using this service, you can not only quickly select and book a flight ticket, by the way, not only to Bali, but in general to any place that interests you. This program collects data on more than 700 ticket offices and air carriers and displays results in convenient form. Moreover, you are not charged any additional commission when purchasing a ticket.

So, the main search menu, which you can use directly on our website here:

Enter the departure city, destination city, dates, you can check the option plus or minus 3 days, the number of passengers and set the search.

The search process occurs and the following form appears:

The first section of the form shows dates, offers to change usage parameters and currency, saves the history of your search queries and allows you to use another convenient widget - “low price map”.The low price map is a fairly simple widget and allows you to clearly see the approximate cost of air tickets to the destinations you are interested in, geographically referenced. You can try it here.

The second section is the low price calendar. If you click on the tab, the following form will open:

It’s also very convenient: play around with dates, simply selecting the options that interest you.

Block three reflects the proposed search option, flight information, cost of the cheapest option, operator companies that offer these tickets and the carrier company. If you are in doubt about purchasing from operator companies, you can go to the website of the airline itself by clicking on its icon (in our example, this is Etihad). Next, issue an electronic ticket.

If it’s difficult for you to book a ticket yourself or you simply don’t have time to track flight options, you can entrust this to us.

Block four is designed to track information on the flight you are interested in and send the data to your email.

The fifth block reflects additional filters to refine the search conditions: number of transfers, prices, departure times, etc.

There are also other services: momondo.com, skyscanner.ru, flight search from Google, etc. Their operating principles are similar to aviasales, but they do not allow you to issue the ticket you are interested in directly from the search form. Therefore, I see no point in describing them in detail here.

To book and purchase the air ticket itself, you will need a debit or credit card VISA, Maestro, Mastercard, valid passport (passport validity for a visit to Indonesia must not be less than 6 months)

On the airline or operator website, do several simple steps: enter your flight dates, if necessary, your personal data, carefully check your passport details, etc., book a ticket, pay with your existing card and receive an electronic ticket.

Have a nice time independent travel on Bali.
