The roadshow will visit Kolkata, Surat and Indore cities that are emerging as key contributors to Bali’s inbound tourism from India. “Kolkata, Surat and Indore were picked for the roadshow because they are rising travel hotspots. With booming economies and more people eager to explore international destinations, Bali sees huge potential here. More families, honeymooners and adventure seekers from these cities are looking for that perfect getaway, so why not Bali? By focusing on these markets, Indonesia is making it even easier for Indian travellers to turn their Bali dreams into reality,” Diana said.

More people are seeking meaningful experiences, whether it’s exploring Bali’s rich culture, enjoying thrilling adventures like ATV rides and water sports or unwinding at a peaceful wellness retreat. The demand for Indian-friendly food and luxury stays has also grown, making Bali feel like a home away from home. With direct flights and easy visas, it’s now simpler than ever for Indians to turn their Bali dreams into reality,” he shared.
