It
is possible to get from Jakarta
to the port of Gilimanuk
on the north west coast of Bali for about 10 US Dollars. The schedules
below show you how the connections pan out. These services are not aimed
at budget travelers but at poorer Indonesians and while you may not get
much comfort or sleep you will probably end with a sore bum and a sense
of achievement.
You do get a bit of a stopover in
Surabaya between trains, you may want to find a cheap guest house to
crash awhile. Alternatively you can break your journey at any station
from Lempuyangan
on to
Surabaya. From Banyuwangi
there are regular ferries across to Bali
This information comes from the
Indonesian Railways
website and is provided as reference. If you wish to do this journey you
are advised to double check as times change, especially at peak season

You could add information that
Lempuyangan is in Yogya so it's possible to spend some days there before
continue to Bali. It remind me of 10 years ago where I still active
climb mountain in Central Java and went there from Jkt by economic
train. Only 14 ribu rupiah, and quite comfortable as we could have a
seat and no one standing. Few years later it changed, because government
policies seem never consider "wong cilik" as human, now every economic
train is full. Did Jkt-Bali by economic train twice. Couldn't say I will
do it again as the last time was very crowded, and I almost fainted
because lack of fresh air.
Damn, now I miss that time with my blue rucksack.
Hopefully to finish my current job after contract expired and.....flores
here i come!
