The analytical method used is a static Linear Programming model developed from Mexico Steel. Model for producing goods which then developed for the services of foreign tourists. The results of data processing explain the number of tourist visits can be achieved optimally on a global level. The entrance of foreign tourists is concentrated in Ngurah Rai and Cengkareng. The motives of foreign tourists are mainly on holiday. The optimal tourist object is culture. The process of tourist arrivals and service products offered in tourism businesses is not a determinant in this modeling. Transportation costs are also not a barrier of foreign tourists in traveling to Indonesia.
