How much USD should i bring to Bali?

While you can change Indian rupees (INR) in Bali, the exchange rate will be poor, so this is an example of where it is better to bring US dollars instead. I generally recommend a USD budget of $25 to $50 per day for budget travelers, $50 to $100 for mid-budget travelers, and $150 per day for luxury travelers.
