How Much Do Flights to Indonesia Cost?

Your biggest expense is your flight, but prices depend on where you fly from, the season, and how early you book. I booked a Delhi to Bali round-trip ticket for INR 22,500 two months in advance. A friend who booked at the last minute paid over INR 30,000. Here’s what you can expect:

• • Budget airlines (layovers): INR 18,000–INR 25,000 (round-trip)
  • Full-service airlines (direct or fewer layovers): INR 30,000–INR 45,000
  • Business class: INR 80,000+

Flights from Mumbai, Chennai, and Kolkata are often cheaper due to shorter distances. The best trick? Use incognito mode, compare fares, and book at least three months in advance.

How Much Will Accommodation Set Me Back?

Indonesia’s options for every wallet, from dirt-cheap hostels to jaw-dropping villas. I went mid-range in Ubud, Bali, paying INR 3,800 per night for a hotel with an infinity pool, a cozy room, and breakfast. Here’s what you’re looking at:

• Budget stays (hostels, guesthouses): INR 500–INR 1,500 per night
• Mid-range hotels & resorts: INR 2,500–INR 6,000 per night
• Luxury hotels & villas: INR 10,000+ per night

If you’re traveling solo, dorm beds are the best way to save money. For couples, boutique hotels offer comfort without the high price tag. Want to go all out? A private villa in Uluwatu or Nusa Dua starts at INR 15,000 per night.

What’s the Cost of Food in Indonesia?

One of my favorite things about Indonesia? The food’s delicious and affordable. I mixed local warungs with mid-range spots, spending INR 600–INR 1,200 daily. Here’s the breakdown:

• Street food & warungs: INR 150–INR 400 per meal
• Casual restaurants: INR 800–INR 1,600 per meal
• Fine dining: INR 2,500+ per meal

You can get Nasi Goreng (fried rice), Satay skewers, or Gado-Gado (peanut salad) at Warungs for under INR. Cafes with Western vibes cost INR 800 to INR 1,500 per meal. I splurged once on a seafood dinner in Seminyak for INR 3,200, pricey, but the sunset view made it a treat. Stick to local eats to keep your Indonesia travel budget low!

How Much Does Transportation Cost?

Getting around Indonesia is easy and cheap—if you choose the right transport. I rented a scooter for INR 400 per day in Bali, which was the best decision. Public transport is limited, but ride-hailing apps make life easier. Here’s what you’ll spend:

• • Local buses & trains: INR 20–INR 100 per ride
  • Ride-hailing apps (Grab, Gojek): INR 100–INR 300 per short ride
  • Scooter rental: INR 300–INR 500 per day
  • Private driver/car rental: INR 3,000–INR 6,000 per day

If you’re comfortable riding a scooter, it’s the cheapest and most fun way to explore. But if traffic scares you, Grab taxis are reliable and affordable. Hiring a driver for the day is convenient if you visit multiple spots.

How Much Will I Spend on Sightseeing and Activities?

Indonesia is full of exciting activities, and the costs of your activities will depend on your interests. I balanced free attractions like beaches and waterfalls with paid experiences like island hopping and temple visits.

• • Temple entrance fees: INR 100–INR 400 (Borobudur is INR 1,000)
  • Island hopping & snorkeling tours: INR 2,500–INR 5,000
  • Surfing lessons: INR 2,000–INR 4,000
  • Private guided tours: INR 3,000+

Snorkeling in Nusa Penida (INR 3,500) was one of my best experiences. If you’re visiting Bali, expect to pay INR 300 for Tegallalang Rice Terraces and INR 1,000 for Uluwatu Temple. Adventure lovers can try scuba diving (INR 5,000+ per dive) or volcano trekking in Java (INR 2,500+).

How Much Should I Budget Per Day?

Now, let’s add everything up. How much will you spend per day? But let me tell you something: some hidden costs will also surprise you, which I will mention below.

• • Budget Traveler: INR 2,000–INR 3,500 per day (hostels, street food, public transport)
  • Mid-Range Traveler: INR 5,000–INR 10,000 per day (hotels, mix of restaurants, activities)
  • Luxury Traveler: INR 15,000+ per day (resorts, private tours, fine dining)

I traveled comfortably as a mid-range traveler, spending around INR 7,000 daily. If you cut back on accommodation and eat mostly local food, you can easily survive on INR 3,000 per day.

Hidden Costs You Might Miss!

I mentioned “hidden costs“ earlier, so let’s unpack them. However, you can alter some of these costs to make planning the Indonesia travel budget easier. These sneaky expenses can add up:

• Visa on Arrival: INR 2,500 for 30 days (check if your country qualifies).
• Travel Insurance: INR 1,000–INR 2,000 weekly—don’t skip it!
• Tips & Donations: INR 50–INR 200 at temples or for guides (not mandatory, but nice).
• Sim Card: INR 500–INR 1,000 for data—essential for maps and Grab.

How Much Will a One-Week Trip to Indonesia Cost?

My one-week Indonesian adventure was 3 days in Bali, 2 days in Nusa Penida, and 2 days in Ubud. The best part? You can tweak this to match your travel style. To give you the full scoop, here’s how the costs break down for a 7-day trip (excluding flights) so you can plan your epic escape:

• Budget: INR 15,000–INR 25,000
• Mid-Range: INR 40,000–INR 70,000
• Luxury: INR 1,00,000+

Absolutely! Indonesia is worth every penny, but what makes this trip even more valuable? For me, it was teaming up with Indian Holiday.
