7Day Bali Trip Cost for 5 People: Group Budget
How Much Does a 7-Day Bali Trip Cost?
✈ Flights & Accommodation
Activities & Other Expenses
Estimates for five friends travelling from Delhi in April 2027. Prices are indicative and subject to flight availability, accommodation rates and activity bookings. Total includes return flights.
A 7-day, 6-night Bali trip for five friends flying from Delhi between April and June 2027 costs about ₹79,900 per person, or ₹3,99,500 for the group, including return flights. That figure assumes you find return fares near ₹31,000 per person.
The plan splits six nights between Ubud (3 nights, 3-star hotel) and Canggu (3 nights, social hostel). Ubud is your base for white-water rafting, ATV riding and a Mount Batur sunrise trek. Canggu covers surfing, beach cafés and nightlife, with day trips to Tanjung Benoa, Nusa Penida and Uluwatu. It suits friends in their 20s who want an active, social trip rather than a slow beach week.
Every figure below is a planning allowance as of November 2026, not a quote. Prices shift with season, operator and group size, so confirm inclusions before you pay.
Estimated Bali Trip Budget for Five Travelers
The budget lands at ₹79,900 per person, and flights alone take nearly 40% of it.
Total Budget for Five Travelers
| Expense | Group total |
|---|---|
| Return flights | ₹1,55,000 |
| Accommodation | ₹42,000 |
| Food and drinks | ₹22,500 |
| Transport | ₹32,500 |
| Activities and sightseeing | ₹1,02,500 |
| Visa and tourist levy | ₹17,500 |
| Insurance and SIM | ₹7,500 |
| Miscellaneous | ₹5,000 |
| Emergency buffer | ₹15,000 |
| Total for five | ₹3,99,500 |
- Not included: alcohol, nightclub or beach-club entry, shopping, optional scooter rental and the cost of getting to Delhi airport. Add your own allowance for these, especially if the Day 6 night out matters to you.
- Visa and levy: the ₹3,500 allowance is meant to cover the Indonesian visa on arrival and Bali’s tourist levy. Check the official immigration and levy sites for current fees before you travel.
- Food: ₹5,500 works out to about ₹790 a day. That covers a mix of local warungs, cafés and Indian restaurants, with breakfast included at the Ubud hotel. It is a lean figure, so cafés and beach-club meals will push it up.

The adventure days cost the most, and Day 2 (rafting and ATV) is the priciest at ₹6,300 per person. Costs below are per person and cover activities and private transfers only. Stay, food, local rides and waiting charges are in the budget table above.
| Day | Where | Main plan | Activities (₹) | Private transfer (₹) | Day total (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Arrive, Ubud | Airport transfer, relaxed evening | 0 | 800 | 800 |
| 2 | Ubud | Rafting and ATV | 6,300 | 0 | 6,300 |

| 7 | Canggu to airport | Departure | 0 | 600 | 600 |
| Total | 20,500 | 4,200 | 24,700 |
Day 1: Arrive in Bali and settle into Ubud
Keep the first day light, because you will be coming off an international flight. After landing at Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) and clearing immigration, meet your pre-booked driver for the transfer to Ubud, roughly 1 to 1.5 hours depending on traffic.
Check into a 3-star hotel with two rooms: one triple and one double. Look for breakfast, a pool and an easy walk into town. In the evening, wander Ubud’s shops and markets, have a relaxed dinner and turn in early.
Day 2: White-water rafting and ATV ride
Raft the Ayung River in the morning, with a guide and safety briefing, then break for lunch. In the afternoon, ride an ATV through countryside tracks and rice-field surroundings. Choose a guided ride if anyone has never driven an ATV, and check the operator’s age, fitness and licence rules.
Book rafting and ATV as one package for five. Confirm whether lunch, hotel pickup, equipment and insurance are included. Expect ₹6,000 to ₹6,800 per person; the plan budgets ₹6,300.
Day 3: Mount Batur sunrise trek
This is your earliest start. Hotel pickup is usually between 1:30 and 2:30 AM, depending on the operator. You walk uphill in the dark, watch the sunrise over Lake Batur and the volcanic landscape, then have breakfast before returning to Ubud. Wear proper walking shoes and a light jacket, and carry water.
Keep the afternoon free for the pool, a massage or a slow walk around town. Expect ₹3,000 to ₹3,500 per person; the plan budgets ₹3,200.
Day 4: Tanjung Benoa water sports, then Canggu
Check out of the Ubud hotel and travel with all your luggage in one private vehicle to Tanjung Benoa. There you try jet skiing, parasailing and a banana boat ride; the order depends on the operator’s schedule and the weather. After the water sports, continue to Canggu and check into the hostel, which has dorm beds split between male and female rooms.
Before booking the vehicle, confirm its luggage capacity for five people and its waiting charges at Tanjung Benoa. Expect ₹2,500 to ₹3,000 per person for the water sports; the plan budgets ₹2,600.
Day 5: Nusa Penida snorkelling and island sightseeing
Leave Canggu early for Sanur Harbour and take a speedboat to Nusa Penida. Snorkel first, then visit the Kelingking Beach viewpoint. The viewpoint is more practical than the steep descent to the beach. Add Broken Beach only if time remains. Manta ray sightings are possible but never guaranteed, and routes can change with currents and weather.
Book one combined tour and check whether it includes the Canggu to Sanur transfer, snorkelling gear and island transport, so you do not pay for the same leg twice. Expect ₹5,000 to ₹5,800 per person; the plan budgets ₹5,300.
Day 6: Canggu surfing, Melasti Beach and Uluwatu sunset
Start with a two-hour group surf lesson in Canggu, subject to conditions and the instructor’s schedule. After lunch, drive south to Melasti Beach for its limestone cliffs and clear water. Finish at Uluwatu Temple for the clifftop views and the sunset Kecak fire dance, then return to Canggu for your last night out.
This is a full day with a long drive and a late return, so a private vehicle is safer than scooters. If the surf lesson runs late or traffic is heavy, shorten the Melasti stop. Confirm Kecak ticket times closer to your date. Expect ₹3,000 to ₹3,500 per person for the lesson and Uluwatu admissions; the plan budgets ₹3,100.
Day 7: Fly home
After breakfast, check out and meet your pre-booked driver for the airport. Leave generous time for the road, check-in, baggage drop and immigration before your return flight to India.
Where Should Five Friends Stay in Bali?
Splitting the stay between Ubud and Canggu keeps each base close to its activities, so you avoid crossing the island repeatedly. Accommodation costs ₹8,400 per person for six nights.
Total Accommodation Budget
| Stay | Nights | Group of five (₹) | Per person (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ubud 3-star hotel (one triple, one double room) | 3 | 24,000 | 4,800 |
| Canggu hostel (five dorm beds) | 3 | 18,000 | 3,600 |
| Total | 6 | 42,000 | 8,400 |
These are planning allowances, not confirmed rates.
Ubud: choose a hotel with breakfast, a pool and easy access to Ubud town. Breakfast in the room rate also helps your food budget.
Canggu: you need five beds across separate male and female dorms, so check the gender split before booking. Hostels worth comparing are The Farm Hostel, Lay Day Hostel and Sepeda Hostel.
Check rates for your April to June 2027 dates, bed availability and recent guest reviews first. If your group prefers a private room, expect to pay more than the ₹3,600 allowance.
How Should the Group Travel Around Bali?
Transport costs ₹27,500 for the group (₹5,500 per person), and about three-quarters of it is private vehicles for the long legs. Use Grab or Gojek for short local trips.
| Transport item | Group of five (₹) |
|---|---|
| Airport to Ubud | 4,000 |
| Ubud to Tanjung Benoa to Canggu (with luggage) | 6,000 |
| Canggu to Melasti and Uluwatu, and back | 6,000 |
| Canggu to airport | 3,000 |
| Canggu to Sanur transfer (skip if your Nusa Penida tour includes it) | 2,000 |
| Grab and Gojek for short local trips | 5,500 |
| Waiting charges, tolls and parking | 1,000 |
| Total | 27,500 |
Private vehicles: use them for the airport transfers, the Day 4 move between bases and the Day 6 Uluwatu run. Check the real luggage capacity before booking. A vehicle advertised for seven passengers may not fit five people and their bags comfortably.
Grab and Gojek: these suit restaurants, cafés and nearby attractions around Ubud and Canggu, where pickup is practical.
Scooters: these are optional and not in the budget. Rent one only if the rider holds the correct motorcycle licence and International Driving Permit category, is confident in Bali traffic and wears a helmet.
Never use scooters for long trips between areas or for a late return after drinking. Any scooter spend would replace some Grab rides, so budget it separately.
How Much Can Flight Prices Change the Budget?
The budget depends heavily on keeping return airfare close to ₹31,000 per person.
The other planned expenses total approximately ₹48,900 per person. This leaves about ₹31,100 for flights under an ₹80,000 ceiling.
| Return airfare | Estimated total trip cost |
|---|---|
| ₹31,000 | ₹79,900 |
| ₹32,000 | ₹80,900 |
| ₹33,000 | ₹81,900 |
| ₹35,000 | ₹83,900 |
The group should compare different seven-day date combinations in April before booking. If flights are more expensive, the final budget will need to increase or selected expenses will need to be reduced.
Budget qualification: These are estimated planning amounts, not confirmed April 2027 booking rates. Personal shopping, alcohol, nightclub charges, optional excursions and other unplanned spending may increase the final cost.
Booking Strategy for Five Travelers
Booking together lets you share private transport and ask for group rates. Compare the complete cost of each option, not the advertised starting price. Book in this order:
- Flights: search flexible seven-day windows between April and June and check baggage, connections and the full return fare.
- Accommodation: confirm the Ubud triple and double rooms, then five Canggu hostel beds across male and female dorms.
- Adventure packages: request group rates for rafting and ATV, Tanjung Benoa water sports and the Nusa Penida tour.
- Transfers: confirm luggage capacity, waiting charges and pickup points for every private journey.
- Inclusions: check hotel pickup, equipment, meals, boat tickets, island transport and entrance fees for each activity.
- Buffer: keep the ₹3,000 per-person reserve rather than spending it on advance bookings.
April to June weather: April falls near the end of Bali’s wet season, so expect some showers, while May and June are usually drier and sunnier. The budget is built on April-style rates, and flights, hotels and tours can cost more later in the window as the dry season brings more visitors. The Batur trek and boat trips depend on weather and sea conditions, so avoid non-refundable bookings for them far in advance.
Is This 7-Day Bali Itinerary Right for Five Friends?
This itinerary is designed for a group that wants more than a beach holiday but does not want to spend every day rushing between attractions.
Ubud provides the setting for rafting, ATV riding and the Mount Batur sunrise trek. Canggu then offers a more social base for surfing, cafés, beach time and nightlife. Nusa Penida adds a full-day island and snorkelling experience, while Tanjung Benoa and Uluwatu complete the coastal portion of the trip.
The accommodation split also reflects the group’s preferences: a comfortable 3-star hotel in Ubud for the adventure portion, followed by a social hostel in Canggu for the final three nights.
With private transfers for longer journeys, app-based rides or optional scooters for short local travel, and group activity bookings, the plan aims to balance convenience and cost.
Estimated target: ₹79,900 per person, including return flights, or ₹3,99,500 for all five travelers. Reaching this budget will depend on securing flights close to ₹31,000 per person and keeping accommodation, transport and activity expenses within the planned allowances.
