Bali eSIM: what to know before you land

🇮🇩 Bali, Indonesia · DPS · 10-day pick: 10 GB for $8.99

Landing in Bali

Ngurah Rai is in the south of the island near Kuta. There is no rail: transfers are by taxi or ride-hailing, and reaching Ubud can take one to two hours in traffic, so having maps working on arrival helps.

  1. Install the Indonesia eSIM at home on Wi-Fi before you fly.
  2. When the plane lands at DPS, turn on data roaming for the eSIM line, so maps and transport apps work from the arrivals hall.
  3. The days start counting on first connection in Indonesia, not at purchase.
