During your time in Indonesia, you can explore fancy restaurants in the city, enjoy the nightlife, shop high-end brands, and then escape to an island to go scuba diving and snorkelling.
When to visit
The best time to visit Indonesia is from June to August. The weather is nice and warm but nice enough for sightseeing and exploring. The Residence Bintan and other hotels and resorts get booked during this time as this is the peak of tourist season, so you need to make bookings in advance.
What to bring
If you are planning to visit Bali or Bintan Island, things to do will include exploring and water sports so you must have sunglasses, swimwear, slippers and a backpack for your mosquito repellent and other items.
Safety concerns
Travelling will always have its risks but there are no major risks in travelling to Indonesia. Travellers should mind their belongings, be friendly but not too trusting of strangers, and be cautious.
Transport
Public transport is not punctual so taking a taxi or a cab is the best mode of transportation when you are getting about. The prices can be high if you are a tourist so remember to discuss a price before getting in.
