What people love about Christmas & New Year Tours in Bali
- 4 Days Bali Authentic Experience
Great tour, got to see a lot of Bali in only 4 days! I never would have had the opportunity to see for my short time holiday. An authentic Bali experience brought together with a local great tour leader, my highlight was the beach dinner, see some amazing temples and get to taste most of the local fruits in Bedugul! Woul book another tour again with Bali Trip Mate in an instant for my next Bali and Nusa Penida trip!
- Classic Bali
This Tour was a great introduction to Bali, the Places a wonderful mix from small Villages off the beaten path to the culture Center of the Island. Because of not so long distances it was a very relaxed Tour. The Hotels we stayed in were very good, espacially the ones in Ubud and Candidasa were a big positiv surprise! Transportation was a luxury private Van, so very relaxed. Our Tourguide/CEO Alan was from Indonesia and a great Guy and Guide!
- Amazing Bali 10 Days - Ubud/ Yogyakarta/ Seminyak
It was my expected trip and I prepared a lot for my trip. I am so lucky to find this company and all the services went smoothly. I visited all the highlight places in Bali, it amazed me. Guide so helpful and very good English speaking.

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.

The season brings special events alongside regular activities.

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."
