1. Travel agent, or book myself online?
*** I booked online this time but 3 previous tips with agent.
2. Can I take gastro stop etc from home?
*** Yes you can.
3. Must do activities, and who to book them through? E.g wait till we get there, or book online now?
*** Do it there and not here, you can bargain when there.
4. It seems the best way to take spending money is to take cash. Is that right?
*** We have always taken cash and a credit card for back up.
5. Any other advice on possible accommodation?
*** If it's under $50 a night it will be budget.
6. What things are cheap to buy in Bali compared to Aus. And what is the best shopping district?
*** Lots cheap, lots poor quality. Good shopping in Melasti Street, Kuta Art Markets and along Legion Street.
Happy Holiday...........
