Most families make this mistake before they even leave the airport. Don’t be one of them. 🛬
✔️ Avoid money changers inside the airport (rates are awful)
✔️ Don’t accept overpriced SIM cards at arrivals - grab a BFF Pass with a FREE eSIM instead!
✔️ Prebook your transfer before landing, or use Grab located just outside of arrivals on ground floor
✔️ Bring a reusable water bottle for your villa/hotel—bottled water costs add up fast

Arriving in Bali with your family should be exciting—not stressful or expensive. But too often, travelers make the same costly mistakes before they’ve even left the airport. Here’s how to avoid them and start your Bali holiday on the right foot.
**1. Skip the airport money changers.** Sure, it’s tempting to exchange cash right away, but airport rates are among the worst on the island. Wait until you're in town where you'll find better exchange rates and more reputable services.
**2. Don’t overpay for a SIM card.** Airport SIM vendors charge premium prices. Instead, download the free **BFF Pass** before you go and enjoy access to a free eSIM and all the family-friendly tips you'll need. It’s convenient, cheaper—and all from your phone.
**3. Pre-book your airport transfer.** Taxis at the airport can be overpriced or confusing to arrange. Plan ahead by booking a reliable transfer or, if you're comfortable, head just outside arrivals and use **Grab**, a popular ride-hailing app that’s both affordable and easy to use.
**4. Bring your own reusable water bottle.** While drinking tap water isn't safe, hotels and villas often provide large water jugs. Refill your bottle instead of constantly buying single-use bottles—it’s better for the planet and your wallet.
**5. Say “no thanks” to Duty Free.** Alcohol prices at Ngurah Rai are no bargain. You’ll find cheaper options at local supermarkets or minimarts once you settle in.
Planning ahead saves you hassle, money, and time—so you can focus on what really matters: enjoying paradise with your family.
