Is Bali safe to travel to?
My two children (aged 14 and 12) and I were planning to travel to Bali in January 2012, staying at Nusa Dua. I note the Smart Traveller website's current advice for travel to Bali is "Review your need to travel". This is apparently because of the high risk of terrorist activity and threat to personal safety. I have been to Bali twice before and expected the biggest problem to be avoiding Bali belly and other diseases. Hadn't really thought about the security aspect. My husband now thinks the children and I shouldn't go. Any thoughts on whether this is just a scare tactic by the Australian Government or should I be looking elsewhere to holiday on my own with two children?
