Dates

•July (dry season, May through September) is widely considered the best time to visit Bali with sunny skies, low humidity, and minimal rain, perfect for beach clubs in Canggu and rice terrace treks in Ubud
•July 6-12 sits in peak tourist season, so the island will be lively and energetic, ideal for the group's social itinerary, though popular venues and beaches will be busier than shoulder season
•7 days is the ideal length for a Canggu + Ubud split, with 3 nights in Canggu allowing full immersion in the surf/beach club scene and 4 nights in Ubud covering temples, rice terraces, waterfalls, wellness, and cooking
•Sunrise at Tegallalang Rice Terraces on Day 5 is timed perfectly for golden-hour lighting and thinner crowds before tour groups arrive after 8am

Budget

•The estimated total cost of ~$1,100 per person (excluding airfare) sits comfortably in the middle of the $800-$1,500 budget, leaving meaningful room to upgrade accommodation, add spa days, or splurge on extra beach club sessions
•Accommodation will be the largest single expense. Splitting a private pool villa in Canggu (3 nights) and a mid-range resort in Ubud (4 nights) typically runs $60-$150 per person per night depending on group size and room sharing
•Food and drinks in Bali are extremely affordable at local warungs ($3-8 per meal) but beach clubs and upscale Ubud restaurants can cost $25-40 per person per outing including cocktails. The itinerary balances both to keep daily food spend around $25-45 per person
•Activities and experiences account for roughly $200-280 per person across the 7 days, with the biggest costs being the Balinese spa treatment (~$45), surf lesson (~$30), beach club day passes (~$25-35 each), and the cooking class (~$35)

Where to stay

Travel tips

!Rent scooters as a group for maximum flexibility in both Canggu and Ubud. Rates are ~$6-8/day per bike and it's the fastest, most fun way to navigate both areas; international driving permits are technically required so drive safely and keep your license handy
!Always carry small denomination Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) cash. Most local warungs, markets, temple entrances, and smaller vendors don't accept cards; withdraw from ATMs at your hotel or reputable banks like BCA or Mandiri to avoid skimming scams at standalone ATMs
!Book the cooking class, spa treatments, and popular dinner restaurants (especially Locavore NXT and Bridges Bali) at least 1-2 weeks in advance. Ubud's best experiences sell out quickly in peak July season
!Pack a sarong or purchase one locally (~$3-5 at any market). A sarong and sash are required to enter all Hindu temples including Tirta Empul and the Monkey Forest; temple staff will rent or sell them at the gate if you forget
!July is peak season in Bali with dry, sunny weather (ideal conditions), but book accommodation early as Canggu and Ubud fill up fast. Always check if your accommodation rate includes the 21% service and tax charge that some hotels add on top
