Lombok to Gili Islands transfer: Private pickup and speedboat

Get to the Gilis without arranging the logistics yourself

A private transfer from Lombok to Gili Islands picks you up from your hotel or airport, drives you to Teluk Nare pier, and puts you on a speedboat bound for the islands. The service runs both directions, so you can book the return leg when you're ready to leave. Air-conditioned vehicle, bottled water and a professional driver are included. The whole journey takes between 30 minutes and 2.5 hours depending on your starting point and the sea conditions.

The experience

The transfer starts at your Lombok accommodation or airport. A driver meets you, loads your luggage, and drives you in an air-conditioned vehicle to Teluk Nare pier on the coast. Once there, you board a speedboat for the crossing to Gili Islands. The driver handles the route and timing. You sit back with bottled water provided. Pickup locations include Kuta, the airport, Kayangan port, Tawun port, Senaru, Senggigi/Mataram and Sembalun, so you choose the one closest to where you're staying.

The speedboat leg is where the journey shifts. You're on the water with other passengers heading the same direction, crossing to whichever Gili island is your destination. The total time from hotel to island runs 30 minutes to 2.5 hours, depending on which part of Lombok you start from and the sea state on the day. Book the return transfer when you're ready to leave the islands and reverse the route back to Lombok.

Top questions

Can I book a pickup from the airport and a return transfer on the same booking?

Yes. You can book the outbound transfer from your airport arrival and arrange the return leg separately when you know your departure date from the Gilis.

What happens at Teluk Nare pier before I board the speedboat?

Teluk Nare pier is where the car journey ends and the speedboat begins. Your driver drops you at the pier. You board the speedboat for the crossing to Gili Islands.

Which Gili island does the speedboat go to?

The speedboat serves Gili Islands. Specify which island (Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno or Gili Air) when you book so the operator arranges your arrival at the right spot.

Is bottled water the only thing included in the transfer?

The transfer includes the air-conditioned vehicle, professional driver, bottled water and the speedboat crossing. Meals and gratuities are not included.

What if my flight arrives late or I need to leave the Gilis at an odd hour?

Confirm your exact arrival or departure time when you book. The operator coordinates the pickup and speedboat departure around your schedule.
