Key takeaways
Indonesia's mobile coverage is excellent in Bali, Jakarta and Java's major cities, but drops quickly in remote islands, highland jungles and rural areas. Telkomsel has by far the widest reach across the archipelago. The easiest way to stay connected is a Roamix Indonesia eSIM, which activates on arrival at Ngurah Rai or Soekarno-Hatta without a SIM purchase. Budget 8 to 12 GB for a two-week trip that covers both cities and islands.
- Telkomsel has the widest coverage across Indonesia's 17,000 islands and is the only network worth trusting in remote areas.
- A Roamix eSIM activates automatically on arrival in Bali or Jakarta, saving you from airport SIM queues.
- Cash is still essential in Indonesia, especially outside tourist areas and at petrol stations.
- Most nationalities receive a free 30-day visa on arrival at Bali and major international airports.
- Budget 8 to 12 GB for two weeks covering both cities and island travel.
Best way to get data in Indonesia
For most Indonesia visitors, a Roamix eSIM on the Telkomsel footprint is the simplest and most reliable connectivity option across both urban and island destinations.
| Option | Best for | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Roamix eSIMRecommended | Best for: Most travellers, especially island hoppers | Activates on arrival without a SIM swap, works across Bali, Java and wherever Telkomsel has coverage, with no roaming bill. |
| Local physical SIM | Best for: Long stays needing a local Indonesian number | Very cheap data but requires a passport, a SIM swap and potentially a trip to a carrier outlet to activate. |
| Pocket wifi | Best for: Groups sharing one connection | Popular for groups in Bali but adds another device to charge and does not work on boat crossings or remote trails. |
| Carrier roaming | Best for: Very short layovers in Jakarta | Expensive and coverage on home carrier roaming in Indonesia can be inconsistent in remote areas. |
Wifi quality varies enormously in Indonesia. Upscale hotels in Bali and Jakarta have fast connections. Local warungs, guesthouses and remote areas have slow or unreliable wifi. Do not rely on wifi alone for navigation or bookings.
How much data you need
Indonesia trips require steady data for navigation in a country with complex signage, ride-hailing apps and WhatsApp communication with hotels and tour operators. Remote driving and boat journeys make offline maps essential.

Works on eSIM capable phones including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and recent Samsung Galaxy models. The phone must be carrier unlocked.
Roamix configures the APN automatically on most devices. If data does not start, apply the APN from your order and toggle airplane mode.
If no data on arrival, confirm data roaming is on for the Roamix line, try selecting the network manually in settings and restart the phone.
Visa and entry for Indonesia
Indonesia offers a free 30-day visa on arrival (VOA) at Ngurah Rai International Airport (Bali), Soekarno-Hatta (Jakarta) and over 30 other entry points to nationals of over 90 countries including most of Europe, the US, UK, Australia, Japan and ASEAN countries. This can be extended once for another 30 days at an immigration office.
- Visa on arrival
- Available
- eVisa or ETA
- Nationalities not on the free VOA list may apply for a paid visa on arrival for IDR 500,000, or apply in advance through the e-VOA system online. Some nationalities require a full visa from an Indonesian embassy.
- Passport validity
- Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your arrival date.
- Onward ticket
- Proof of onward travel and confirmed accommodation are required at immigration.
Keep your Roamix eSIM active to present hotel confirmation on your phone at the immigration desk and to book your first Gojek ride before leaving the airport.
Entry rules change. Always confirm current requirements with the Indonesian Directorate General of Immigration before booking.
When you land in Indonesia
0 of 5 done
How people message here
WhatsApp is the near-universal messaging and calling app across Indonesia, used for both personal and business communication including hotel bookings and tour operators.
Do you need a local number?
You do not need a local number for most travel purposes. WhatsApp messaging and calls work fine on a Roamix eSIM data line. Many hotels and tour operators communicate on WhatsApp using your existing number.
Save key contacts like your hotel, driver and tour operator on WhatsApp before arriving. Most Indonesian businesses respond faster on WhatsApp than by email.
Airports in Indonesia
DPS
Ngurah Rai International Airport
Denpasar, Bali
Free wifi available in the international terminal, though speeds can be slow during peak arrival periods.
Install your Roamix eSIM before departure so it connects on landing. With Roamix already active, you can book your taxi via MyBluebird or Grab, confirm your villa address, and have Google Maps ready before you reach the taxi queue outside arrivals.
CGK
Soekarno-Hatta International Airport
Jakarta
Free IndiHome wifi available across all terminals. Can be slow in busy Terminal 3 Ultimate.
Soekarno-Hatta is a sprawling three-terminal complex. Activate your Roamix eSIM before landing to navigate the multi-terminal layout and book your Grab or compare the Railink Airport Train to Sudirman station in central Jakarta before you exit arrivals.
SUB
Juanda International Airport
Surabaya
Free wifi available across Terminal 1 and Terminal 2.
Surabaya is the gateway for East Java and the Bromo-Tengger-Semeru National Park. Installing Roamix before arrival means your Mount Bromo sunrise tour booking is confirmed and your driver's contact is ready the moment you land.
LOP
Lombok International Airport
Mataram, Lombok
Free wifi available in the main terminal.
Lombok International is 45 minutes from Senggigi and about 90 minutes from the Kuta Lombok surf area. Install Roamix before arrival and book your car transfer directly from the arrival hall using Grab or the Lombok tourism board transfer service.
Apps and internet access in Indonesia
Indonesia has an open internet with no systematic blocking of mainstream apps or social media. Every common app works normally on a Roamix Indonesia eSIM.
There is no general censorship of messaging, calling or social media apps. Some specific websites may be blocked by the government, but this does not affect mainstream travel apps. No VPN is needed for everyday use.
WhatsApp, works
Fully available and the dominant messaging app in Indonesia.
FaceTime, works
Works normally over data and wifi with no restrictions.
Google Maps, works
Unrestricted and essential for navigating Bali and Jakarta.
Gojek and Grab, works
Both work fully. Gojek is the dominant local super-app in Indonesia for rides, food and services.
Getting around Indonesia
Indonesia's transport is as diverse as its geography, from Jakarta's modern airport train and MRT to Bali's scooter-centric roads, inter-island ferries and domestic flight hops between major destinations.
Gojek and Grab
Gojek is Indonesia's homegrown super-app covering rides, food delivery and services. Both require an active data connection. Indispensable in Bali and Jakarta.
Scooter hire in Bali
The most common way to explore Bali independently. Use Google Maps offline or downloaded to navigate between temples and beaches where signal is patchy.
Jakarta MRT and KRL commuter rail
Jakarta's growing MRT and commuter rail network use the Jakcard or bank card tap system. A connected phone lets you check live departures and navigate the multi-modal system.
Domestic flights
Flights are the practical way to reach Lombok, Manado, Makassar and eastern Indonesia. A Roamix eSIM manages mobile boarding passes and rebooking if schedules change.
In Bali, scooter hire costs around 60,000 to 80,000 IDR per day and is the most flexible way to explore. In Jakarta, use Gojek or the MRT. On the Gili Islands there are no motorised vehicles, so horse cart and cycling are the only options.
Money and payments in Indonesia
The Indonesian rupiah is cash-forward outside of tourist areas and major malls. Always keep enough cash for petrol, local markets, remote warungs and temple entrance fees.
- Cards and cash
- Cards are accepted at Bali resorts, international hotels and larger restaurants, but cash is needed almost everywhere else. ATMs can be unreliable on smaller islands, so withdraw enough before departing the mainland.
- ATMs
- ATMs are available in Bali, Jakarta and major cities but rare on small islands. Always choose to be charged in IDR rather than your home currency to avoid poor dynamic conversion rates.
- Payment apps
- GoPay (within Gojek) and OVO are dominant local digital wallets. QRIS QR codes are accepted at an increasing number of small businesses. A connected Roamix eSIM keeps your banking and payment apps active.
- Tipping
- Tipping is appreciated but not obligatory. Around 10 percent in sit-down restaurants, 20,000 to 50,000 IDR for drivers and guides, and more for multi-day trekking guides who carry your gear.
Daily budget
Budget travellers in Bali can manage on 200,000 to 400,000 IDR a day for local food, scooter hire and guesthouses. Mid-range travellers spend 600,000 to 1,500,000 IDR. Bali is pricier than Java or Lombok.
Local tips for Indonesia
- Language
- Bahasa Indonesia is the national language and a connected translation app helps outside tourist areas. Most Bali hospitality staff speak English, but village communities and local warungs often do not.
- Food
- Indonesian food is extraordinary, from nasi goreng and satay to Balinese babi guling roast pork and Javanese gudeg jackfruit curry. Warungs are the local equivalent of hawker stalls, serving fresh and affordable food across the country.
- Plugs
- 230V, Type C and F plugs
Apps worth having
Gojek
super-app
Indonesia's dominant super-app for ride-hailing, food delivery, payments and services. Essential for getting around Bali and Jakarta.
Traveloka
travel
The main platform for booking domestic flights, ferry tickets and hotels across Indonesia, with better Indonesian route coverage than global booking sites.
Google Maps with offline areas
navigation
Download offline map packs for each island or region before leaving wifi. Critical for navigating Bali's back roads and Yogyakarta's temple complexes.
Safety and health in Indonesia
Indonesia is generally safe for tourists, with the main risks being petty theft in busy tourist areas, occasional volcanic activity and water and food safety. Bali and the major tourist islands are well set up for visitors.
- Stay reachable
- Keep your Roamix eSIM active to receive volcanic activity alerts from the Centre for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation, which issues notifications for Mount Agung, Merapi and other active volcanoes.
- Health
- Dengue fever is endemic and transmitted by daytime mosquitoes. Use repellent consistently. Bali belly (traveller's diarrhoea) is common from contaminated water or food. Drink only bottled or filtered water.
- Tap water
- Do not drink tap water anywhere in Indonesia. Bottled water is cheap and ubiquitous. Be cautious with ice in local warungs outside tourist areas.
Networks and coverage in Indonesia
Indonesia is the world's largest archipelago and its network coverage reflects that challenge. Telkomsel dominates with the widest footprint across all 34 provinces, including remote islands and rural Java. In Bali, Jakarta and major tourist areas, 4G is fast and reliable. A Roamix Indonesia eSIM connects to the best available local network on arrival, with no SIM purchase or passport verification at a counter.
Telkomsel
By far the most extensive coverage in Indonesia, including remote islands, rural Java, Lombok and highland Sumatra. Operates around 247,000 base stations covering 97% of the population. Leads on 5G speed with median 5G downloads around 66 to 88 Mbps.
Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison
The second largest operator following its Ooredoo and Hutchison merger. Strong in urban areas and competitive in 5G rollout. Good for Jakarta and Surabaya city use.
XLSmart
Formed by the April 2025 merger of XL Axiata and Smartfren. Growing its combined network with 5G investment. Strong in urban Java and Bali but thinner in remote areas.
- Typical speeds
- Expect 20 to 60 Mbps on 4G in urban areas and 50 to 100 Mbps on 5G in Jakarta, Bali and Surabaya.
- 5G
- Telkomsel leads 5G with coverage in Jakarta, Bali, Surabaya, Bandung and Batam. Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison also operates 5G in major cities. The merged XLSmart network is expanding 5G coverage through 2025 and 2026.
For island hopping beyond Bali and Lombok, prioritise a Roamix plan that rides the Telkomsel network. It is the only carrier with meaningful coverage on smaller and more remote Indonesian islands.
Outside the main tourist corridors, signal can drop to 3G or disappear entirely. Remote areas of Kalimantan, Papua, Maluku, Flores and the Nusa Tenggara chain are particularly patchy. Download offline maps and entertainment before leaving populated areas. Indonesian networks use commonly supported LTE bands. Most modern unlocked phones work well across Telkomsel's 4G and 5G footprint.
Where to go in Indonesia
Indonesia is one of the world's most diverse travel destinations, stretching across three time zones and encompassing ancient temples, tropical beaches, active volcanoes and some of the richest marine biodiversity on earth. A connected phone is essential for navigating between these very different worlds, especially on the road between islands.
Best time to visit
May to September is the dry season across Bali and the south. The best surf and diving conditions depend heavily on which coast and which island you visit. Avoid Bali during school holidays when prices surge.
Bali
The world's most complete travel destination: temple ceremonies at Pura Tanah Lot and Pura Besakih, rice terrace walks in Tegallalang and Jatiluwih, surf breaks from Kuta to Uluwatu, yoga and cafes in Ubud, and beach clubs in Seminyak and Canggu. Telkomsel Hyper 5G covers Denpasar, Kuta, Seminyak, Canggu and Nusa Dua.
- Tegallalang Rice Terraces
- Uluwatu Temple at sunset
- Ubud Monkey Forest
- Seminyak beach clubs
- Mount Batur sunrise hike
Excellent 4G and 5G coverage across the south including Seminyak, Kuta, Canggu and Ubud. Signal thins in the interior mountains and some northern coastal villages. Download offline maps for temple drives and rice terrace walks.
Java and Jakarta
Java is the cultural and economic heart of Indonesia. Jakarta is the sprawling capital, but Yogyakarta is the cultural soul, the base for visiting Borobudur (the world's largest Buddhist temple) and Prambanan (the great Hindu temple complex). The volcanic slopes of Merapi and Bromo are accessible from Yogyakarta and Surabaya.
- Borobudur temple complex
- Prambanan temple
- Old Town Kota Tua Jakarta
- Mount Bromo at sunrise
- Malioboro Street Yogyakarta
Strong 4G and 5G in Jakarta and major Java cities. Yogyakarta has reliable Telkomsel 4G at Borobudur and Prambanan. Volcanic trailheads at Merapi and Bromo have usable signal at the base but drop on summit approaches.
Lombok and the Gili Islands
Lombok is Bali without the crowds: Mount Rinjani's crater lake, the pink sand beach of Tangsi (Pink Beach), and the traditional Sasak villages of central Lombok. The three Gili Islands (Trawangan, Meno, Air) have no motorised vehicles and deliver some of the finest snorkelling and diving in Southeast Asia.
- Mount Rinjani crater lake
- Gili Trawangan snorkelling
- Pink Beach Lombok
- Selong Belanak surf
- Sendang Gile Waterfall
Telkomsel 4G in Mataram, Senggigi and the main Gili island piers. Gili Trawangan has usable 4G on the main strip. Remote Lombok beaches including Mawun and Selong Belanak have intermittent signal. Download offline maps of the islands.
Komodo and East Nusa Tenggara
Labuan Bajo on Flores Island is the gateway to Komodo National Park and its population of the world's largest lizard. The Padar Island viewpoint offers one of the most photographed landscapes in Southeast Asia. Pink sand beaches on Komodo Island and the manta ray cleaning stations of Manta Point are extraordinary diving destinations.
- Padar Island viewpoint
- Komodo dragon ranger walk
- Pink Beach Komodo
- Manta Point diving
- Labuan Bajo waterfront
Telkomsel 4G in Labuan Bajo town and at ranger stations on Rinca and Komodo islands. Offshore on dive boats and in open water, signal is absent. Download offline maps of all park islands before departing Labuan Bajo harbour.
Sumatra and Borneo
Sumatra offers the Toba Lake caldera (the world's largest volcanic lake), orangutan encounters at Bukit Lawang, and the Sumatran tiger heartland of Kerinci Seblat National Park. Indonesian Borneo (Kalimantan) is the last wild frontier, with proboscis monkeys in Tanjung Puting National Park and Dayak longhouse culture on the Mahakam River.
- Lake Toba, Samosir Island
- Bukit Lawang orangutan trek
- Tanjung Puting National Park (klotok boat)
- Mahakam River Dayak villages
- Harau Valley, West Sumatra
Telkomsel 4G in major Sumatra cities and at Toba lake resorts. Orangutan trekking in Bukit Lawang is on-network in the main village. Deep Borneo jungle rivers and Tanjung Puting interior are largely off-network. Satellite devices are standard for extended river expeditions.
Off the beaten path
The world's only electric-blue volcanic fire, visible on night hikes from around 2 AM, caused by igniting sulphuric gases in the acidic crater lake.
Signal: No signal on the crater rim or during the descent. Good Telkomsel 4G in Banyuwangi town at the base.
The most biodiverse marine environment on Earth, with 75 percent of the world's coral species. Best for manta ray aggregations, wobbegong sharks and pygmy seahorses.
Signal: Telkomsel has towers on the main inhabited islands including Waisai on Waigeo and the Sorong gateway city. Remote dive sites, uninhabited islands and liveaboard routes are entirely off-network. A satellite communicator is strongly recommended for extended stays.
A 45-minute speedboat from Bali, Nusa Penida has become the most instagrammed island in Southeast Asia for the Kelingking Beach T-Rex cliff viewpoint. Snorkelling with manta rays at Manta Point is world-class.
Signal: Telkomsel 4G at the main port in Toyapakeh and at Kelingking Beach and Crystal Bay. Remote cliff paths and the T-Rex hill trails can lose signal. Download offline maps of the island before taking the speedboat from Sanur or Padang Bai.
The most photographed rice terraces in Bali, worked on the subak communal irrigation system that is UNESCO listed. The light is best in the morning before the hawker stalls open and tour groups arrive.
Signal: Telkomsel 4G at the main viewpoint area and entrance. Signal can drop on longer rice terrace walks away from the main path.
The world's largest Buddhist temple, built in the 9th century from two million stone blocks with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues. The sunrise view from the top tier over the Kedu Valley with Merapi volcano in the background is one of Indonesia's great experiences.
Signal: Telkomsel 4G throughout the Borobudur Park complex and in Magelang town. The temple top levels have good signal.
The largest Hindu temple complex in Southeast Asia, dedicated to the Trimurti, with 240 temples built in the 9th century. The Ramayana ballet performed at the outdoor Trimurti Theatre at sunset is one of Java's great cultural experiences.
Signal: Excellent Telkomsel 4G throughout the Prambanan complex and surrounding park.
A clove and coffee farming village in Bali's northern highlands, with twin waterfalls at Melanting and Munduk, jungle trekking and temperatures of 18 to 22C compared to the coast.
Signal: Telkomsel 4G in Munduk village. Waterfall trails into the forest below can drop to 3G or no signal. Download offline maps of the Munduk waterfall circuit before heading out.
The Baliem Valley is home to the Dani people, who maintained a Stone Age lifestyle largely undisturbed until the 1930s. The Grand Baliem Valley Festival in August brings traditional Dani war re-enactments, pig feasts and tribal dances.
Signal: Telkomsel 4G in Wamena town and at the main village market areas. Remote highland trekking routes between Dani villages go off-network. Satellite devices are standard for multi-day highland treks.
The Torajan people have the most elaborate funeral traditions in the world, with water buffalo sacrifices, coffins hung on cliffsides and funerals that can last weeks. The boat-shaped tongkonan houses are among the most distinctive architecture in Southeast Asia.
Signal: Telkomsel 4G in Rantepao town, the main base for Toraja visitors. Remote highland villages and cliff burial sites can have weak signal. Download offline maps of the Toraja area in Makassar before flying up.
One of Southeast Asia's most beautiful beaches, a wide horseshoe of white sand with long, consistent beginner surf waves and almost no commercial development compared to Bali's beaches.
Signal: Telkomsel 4G in Selong Belanak village and at the main beach. The remote roads through central Lombok connecting Mataram to the south coast can drop to 3G in highland sections.
Events and seasons in Indonesia
March (Balinese New Year, date varies each year)
Nyepi Day of Silence
Bali
Bali's most sacred Hindu holiday, during which the entire island falls silent for 24 hours. No lights, no cars, no noise and no internet service as part of the observance.

Kintamani, Bali
A guided 2-hour pre-dawn hike to the rim of Mount Batur's active volcano to watch the sun rise over Lake Batur and the Agung volcano in the distance. The Batur Trekking Association requires guides for the official route.
Through the year
- Spring
- February to April sees the wet season tapering off. Nyepi falls in March and is a unique cultural event worth planning around.
- Summer
- June to August is the dry season in Bali and the south, the best time for most tourists with low humidity and calm seas. Prices and crowds peak during European summer holidays.
- Fall
- September and October remain dry in the south and are ideal for diving in Komodo and Lombok with good visibility and calmer crossings.
- Winter
- November to January is wet season in most of Indonesia. Bali's west coast beaches face roughest conditions, while the east coast remains calmer.
Working remotely from Indonesia
Bali is one of the world's most popular digital nomad destinations, with a large coworking scene in Canggu and Ubud, affordable living and a supportive community. Jakarta also has excellent coworking infrastructure.
- Connection
- Coworking spaces in Canggu and Ubud have fast fixed connections. A Roamix eSIM on the Telkomsel network covers the drives between locations and acts as a reliable backup when venue wifi is slow.
Bali's Canggu neighbourhood has the highest concentration of coworking spaces and nomad-friendly cafes in Indonesia. Choose spaces close to the beach road for reliable power and AC.
