Here are my tips to help you avoid getting sick while traveling in Bali:

  • Start taking probiotics 1–2 weeks before arriving and continue throughout your trip. I recommend Optibac.

  • Wash your hands regularly, especially after handling cash and before eating.

  • Be cautious with street food, particularly meats that may have been prepared earlier and left out for long periods.

  • Do NOT drink tap water in Bali.

  • Use bottled or filtered water even when brushing your teeth.

Healthcare in Bali;

  • Saline Bali (qualified doctors) will come to your place and provide IV drips and medicine for food poisoning, dengue fever and general health!

  • Medira Clinic will also travel to you to ensure you get treated quickly

  • Siloam Hospital deal with a lot of the emergency cases
