Everything was very well coordinated. We left our hotel in Ubud with enough time to catch the speedboat. At the Ozone Café, they gave us tickets to enter Pandag Bai harbor, to enter Gili Air, and to return. They told us to carry our bags ourselves so no one would try to charge us extra, and they escorted us to the pier. Everything was perfect.

What's a trip to Indonesia without a visit to the paradise beaches of the Gili Islands? Get there quickly and comfortably with these boat transfers!
Description

After being collected from your hotel in Bali at your chosen time, you'll be taken to Padang Bai Port for your speedboat to the famous Gili Islands. There, we'll give you your tickets and help you on board. You'll arrive on Gili Trawangan or Gili Air in the most comfortable way!

You'll have free time in Gili to make the most of the diverse range of activities offered on the islands. The water sports here are a must-do, especially scuba diving and snorkelling. Don't miss the opportunity for unforgettable views of the islands' fascinating marine life!

Not quite sure which island to go to? The Gili Islands are three small, paradisiacal islands just off the northwest coast of Lombok. With this transfer service, you can choose which one you want to get off on. Gili Trawangan is the largest and most popular of the archipelago, known for its nightlife. On the other hand, Gili Air is a popular destination for couples and newlyweds looking for a romantic getaway.

Departure time

If you choose the boat that departs at 10 am, we'll pick you up at your hotel between 7 am and 7:30 am. Please also note the following times:

Arrival at Gili Trawagan will be at 11:30 am.

Arrival at Gili Air will be at 12 pm.

If you choose the boat that departs at 1:30 pm, we'll pick you up at your hotel between 10:30 am and 11 am. Please also note the following times:

Arrival at Gili Trawagan will be at 3 pm.

Arrival at Gili Air will be at 3:30 pm.

Return to Bali schedule

You can choose the option that includes your return to Bali. On the return day, just head to the port counter at Gili Air or Gili Trawangan, depending on where you're staying.

Motor vehicles are prohibited on the Gili Islands, so hotel pickup is not available for transfers to the port. When booking, you must select your return date—it cannot be the same day as your outbound journey. Once selected, the return date cannot be changed.

Hotel Pickup

This transfer includes hotel pickup from the following areas of Bali: Ubud, Sanur, Candidasa, Kuta, Seminyak, Kerobokan, Nusa Dua, Tanjung Benoa and Jimbaran. If you're staying elsewhere, we'll contact you to offer an alternative.

Important

We recommend spending at least one night in the Gili Islands as if you make a round trip on the same day, you'll not have enough time to enjoy the destination.

The return to Bali should be at least one day before taking any international flight or returning to the destination of origin since there can be delays due to the traffic in the port or poor weather conditions.

Muy bien coordinado todo. Salimos del hotel de Ubud con tiempo suficiente para coger la lancha rápida. En el Ozone Café nos dieron los tickets para entrar al puerto Pandag Bai, para entrar en Gili Air y los tickets de vuelta. Nos avisaron que lleváramos nosotros mismos las maletas para que nadie nos intente cobrar un extra y nos acompañaron al muelle. Todo perfecto Translate this opinion into English.

A mí me pareció que todo estaba muy bien organizado, te recogen en el hotel, te trasladan en una furgoneta, eso sí es un vehículo compartido no como en las excursiones, y te dejan en el puerto de Padanbai en un bar próximo allí te dan los tickets y las indicaciones y luego te acompañan hasta el barco . Luego la travesía, pues depende del día, sales a mar abierto y el barco se mueve mucho pero yo que soy propenso a marearme no me mareé. Una cosa más en el barco te ofrecen pastillas para el mareo. Translate this opinion into English.

I thought everything was very well organised. They pick you up at the hotel, take you in a van, which is a shared vehicle, not like the tours, and drop you off at the port of Padanbai in a nearby bar. There they give you tickets and directions and then they take you to the boat. Then the crossing, well, it depends on the day. You go out into the open sea and the boat moves a lot, but I am prone to seasickness and I didn't get seasick. One more thing: on the boat they offer you seasickness pills. Opinion translated.

Todo muy bien organizado y puntual por parte de la empresa local. Otra cosa es el caos que te encuentras al llegar al puerto, pero es cuestión de estar muy atentos y seguir al pie de la letra las recomendaciones del guía para no acabar en un transporte que no te corresponde. Llevar pastillas para el mareo, según el estado del mar puede ser necesario Translate this opinion into English.

Everything was very well organized and punctual by the local company. Another thing is the chaos you find when you arrive at the port, but it is a matter of being very attentive and following the guide's recommendations to the letter so as not to end up in a transport that is not yours. Take seasickness pills, depending on the state of the sea it may be necessary. Opinion translated. Show original.

Empezo bien con la recogida a tiempo en el hotel, el traslado al puerto y el embarque. incluye la tasa portuaria de entrada a la isla. La lancha es "rapida", pero como sardinas en lata, a pesar del aire hacia calor y huele a gasolina. Pero bien en general. El regreso tambien organizado, aunque sin personal de referencia que te indique. Lancha bien. Lo malo es el traslado al hotel devuelta, muy desorganizado, la persona del transporte se niega a dejarte en el hotel (como es debido). Translate this opinion into English.

It started well with on-time hotel pickup, transfer to the port and boarding. includes the port tax for entry to the island. The boat is "fast", but like sardines in a can, despite the air it was hot and it smelled like gasoline. But good in general. The return is also organized, although without reference personnel to tell you. Boat well. The bad thing is the return transfer to the hotel, very disorganized, the transport person refuses to leave you at the hotel (as it should). Opinion translated. Show original.
