Hi I am a new member, however I've heard great things about this forum and hope I can become a useful member. Starting off I'd appreciate if I can get some advice for my next Indonesia adventure please.
I will be starting off from Bangalore, India and land in Bali in the 1st week of December this year. Plan to be there for around 7 days. What are some decent hostels around? I will be meeting the adventure tour operators there - you know dive shops, surf schools, paragliding pilots, canyoning guides, trekking outfits etc. So spots close to where these guys are generally located would help. A little open ended, but any help will be most appreciated!
Also, what is the best way to get around? Is taking Ferry's from Bali to Lombok and further in the wet season safe? Or should I take short flights? And renting a bike when in the city is best I guess?
Thanks and keep adventuring!
Ankit.
