Very comfortable and safe journey. Staff were helpful. Would definitely recommend

Backpacker here, so my standards are low. Van was great, via WhatsApp confirmed driver & time the night before. That’s the only reason for the three stars, the driver was lovely, helped me with my bag & checkin at the port. Boat ride and crew -3. Boat was rough. I don’t get seasick but damn their aircon smelt like it was running thru the engine cause the entire cabin smelt like fuel and despite sitting at the front the ride was a longgg, hot and uncomfortable two hours. The crew also enjoy blasting depressing country American music on repeat. Several people got up to turn it down and ofc the crew readjusted it so I just got up and turned it off. And to top off this delightful experience imagine 3 airplane seats on RyanAir, well, on this boat they force 4 people to sit in that space so you are side by side some sweaty person for two hours and enjoying the children behind you kneeing you in the back or throwing a fit beside you. Sit outside or get an aisle seat for your sanity. The kids don’t sit outside thank god there is a risk they’ll fall overboard.

The trip took 1 hour and 50 min more than scheduled. When I asked the staff about the time delay he was very rude an arrogant.

Driver was not on time and no way to contact them. Otherwise trip was fine. Should really advise correct estimations of arrival though as we were meant to get into Gili T at 3.30pm and didn’t arrive until 5pm.

Very tiny seats not for male European shoulders. My ferry service made stops at gili T & Gili Meno before arriving at Gili A. So we where an hour late in the end. There are direct connections.

Very friendly crew, but the AC is hardly working and they don't respect the schedule (we were 30+ minutes late when leaving). The price is a little bit lower than average.
