Rules in force · 9Drug trafficking can carry the death penalty in Singapore…Ubud lanes have broken pavement, steps and open drains

Southeast Asia ↗Drug trafficking can carry the death penalty in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Brunei and Myanmar; never carry a bag or parcel for anyone.
Southeast Asia ↗Carry a passport valid for at least six months from entry with two blank pages; airlines refuse boarding on less.
Indonesia ↗Buy the visa on arrival or e-visa only on the official Immigration portal; lookalike sites charge extra.
Indonesia ↗Complete the All Indonesia digital arrival and customs form before landing; it is free.
Indonesia ↗Foreign visitors to Bali pay a one-off tourist levy; keep the payment proof on your phone.
Indonesia ↗Riding a motorbike needs a valid licence that covers motorbikes (an international permit alongside your own) and a helmet; check your insurance covers it.
Bali ↗A hired driver by the day is the normal way to visit rice terraces and temples outside Ubud; agree the route and price before you set off.
Ubud ↗Ubud lanes have broken pavement, steps and open drains: large suitcases go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
Ubud ↗Monkeys in and around the Monkey Forest take phones, glasses and food: keep them zipped away.

Rescue anchors

7 places to rest · checked on a 40 m (130 ft) grid

A rescue anchor is a spot where you can stop and recover if the walk goes wrong: a bench, a café, a toilet. Every letter on the map is one anchor, and each has a card below. We check that any point in the cluster is within about 7 minutes’ walk of one, so you are never far from somewhere to sit down.

Map © OpenStreetMap contributors. Lettered circles: rescue anchors (green works in any conditions, amber only on hot days). Dashed outline: the cluster. Red dots: spots more than 7 min from any anchor (none if you see no red). North is up; not for navigation.
