Hitch
to Darwin via Townsville, or take a train from Sydney or Melbourne
with student discount (50% off) to Alice Springs, then hitch to
Darwin from there in 1-2 days. On flights from Darwin, Australia,
straight to Bali you must book 1-2 months ahead, especially during
university vacation in Australia, Dec. and January. From.Darwin
there are sometimes cattle boats US$75-150 one way, or private
yachts a bit cheaper, that shuttle irregularly between Darwin
and the Indonesian islands, but you can't depend on them. Merpati
is the only airlines handling the Darwin-Bali route now and charge
an exorbitant Aus$228, having capitalized on the Darwin-Dili (Portugese
Timor) flight stopped because of war. With the airfare being so
expensive, it now works out usually cheaper to fly from Sydney
direct to Jakarta for Aus$3-400. Unless you have extraordinary
luck hitching and snag a ride straight through to Darwin, you
must consider how much you'll spend on food and sleep getting
there. It is even more dismal a prospect during the wet.

Might
as well fly from Perth, Western Australia, it's only about Aus$25
or so more expensive than flying from Darwin. There are flights
for around Aus$256 from Perth to Jakarta. Cathay Pacific costs
Aus $308 from Perth to Jakarta; a morning flight, only 4 hours,
good meal, free grog. Or fly this route with A.U.S. for only Aus$160.
tours from Australia: Be wary of pre-packaged travel agencies
advertising 'Cheap Tours to Indonesia'. Bad reports. Make sure
you get the best value for your money. You pay for places and
services sight unseen. Occasionally, agencies don't pay their
bills so when you arrive hotels could refuse to put you up. Or
else they could be really out of the way and have expensive food.
If you're taking the Easy Rider Tour, book at different times
if you're a husband and wife or close friends and you want to
travel together, yet separately. Even though they say you'll each
get a motorcycle for the 28 days, when you arrive in Bali you'll
only receive vouchers for one machine and you must share it. You
can always rent your idle bike out to another tourist and make
money from it. A reliable travel agent in Australia? Try Bali
Tours, 34 Raleigh St., Windsor, Melbourne; or Palmii, 49 Park
Street, South Yarra, Melbourne, run by Pat Price. Good reports.
These both offer cheap package tours from Australia right on through
to Penang, Malaysia. All tickets are open-dated and you're on
your own.
