As the sun shone brightly over Lombok’s lush landscape, we received a WhatsApp message that would soon become the start of a memorable journey for Tom Pearce and Siobhan Pearce, a lovely couple from Australia. Their request was simple yet special: a seamless, private transfer from Lombok Airport to the tranquil shores of Gili Air, with every detail handled with care. From the very first “Hi Lombok Boat, I would like to know about the private speedboat transfer service between Lombok Airport and Gili Air,” we knew this was more than just a booking—it was the beginning of a story we were excited to be part of.
From First Contact: Personalized Service via WhatsApp
Our journey with Tom and Siobhan began with a friendly WhatsApp chat. We pride ourselves on being responsive and attentive, and this conversation was no exception. Tom’s questions were clear and thoughtful, and we responded promptly, ensuring every detail was covered:
Tom: “Price for return transfer from Lombok airport to Gili Air. Depart Lombok 29/12. Depart Gili Air 2/1.”
Us: “Yes possible, may we know for how many people?”
Tom: “2 pax. On back 2 January, you want drop off to airport Lombok also?”
Us: “Yes please. Okay, total price is IDR 1.700.000 for 2 people, including pickup and drop off airport Lombok and return speedboat.”
We made sure to clarify every step, from flight details to luggage, and even the name of the speedboat—Princess Speedboat—so Tom could inform his hotel on Gili Air. Our goal was to make the process as transparent and stress-free as possible, and Tom’s quick responses made coordination a breeze.
Simple, Secure Booking Process
Booking a fast boat to Gili or arranging tiket kapal from Lombok should never be complicated. With Tom and Siobhan, we demonstrated just how easy it can be. After confirming their travel dates, flight numbers, and names, we sent a secure payment link. Tom appreciated the convenience of paying by credit card directly on our website, and within minutes, the booking was confirmed:
Tom: “Ok will pay shortly and send confirmation.”
Us: “Yes, thank you Tom.”
Tom: “I have paid.”
Us: “Thank you 🙏🏼 Yes, thank you for your payment.”
We updated Tom with all the essential details, including the meeting point—right in front of KFC at Lombok Airport, a spot that’s easy to find even after a long flight. We also provided a Google Maps link for extra clarity, ensuring there would be no confusion upon arrival.
Attention to Every Detail: Travel Arrangements and Flexibility
As the travel date approached, we reconfirmed every aspect of the transfer. We asked Tom to send a photo of himself and Siobhan, making it easier for our driver to recognize them at the meeting point. We also checked on their internet connectivity and luggage:
Us: “Please send us a photo of yourself with other passengers, so drivers will find you easier tomorrow. When you’re not connected to the Wi-Fi, do you still have internet access? How many suitcases and backpacks?”
Tom: “Yes we have internet – we live in Indonesia. 2 suitcases and 2 small backpacks.”
Even when Tom’s flight was delayed, we adapted quickly. Our team monitored the new arrival time and adjusted the pickup accordingly, ensuring a smooth transition from the airport to the port. We believe that flexibility is key to great hospitality, and Tom’s appreciation for our proactive communication was clear.
Private Transfer Experience: Airport to Gili Air
On December 29th, our driver waited at the designated meeting point, holding a sign and ready to greet Tom and Siobhan with a warm smile. The couple, with their two suitcases and small backpacks, found the process effortless. Our private car provided a comfortable ride through Lombok’s scenic countryside, heading straight to Teluk Nare Port.
Upon arrival at the port, our team assisted with luggage and guided Tom and Siobhan to the Princess Speedboat. The speedboat, reserved just for them, offered a swift and exclusive journey across the sparkling waters to Gili Air. The entire transfer—from airport pickup to the gentle landing at Gili Air Harbour—was designed for comfort, privacy, and peace of mind.

Return Journey: Gili Air to Lombok Airport
After a few days of island bliss, Tom and Siobhan’s return was just as smooth. We reconfirmed their pickup time, taking into account their flight schedule and potential traffic. Our team ensured they checked in at Gili Air Harbour by 11:10 AM for the 11:15 AM speedboat, giving them ample time to reach Lombok Airport for their Garuda flight.
Throughout the process, our focus remained on clarity and convenience. We provided all necessary details, from the speedboat name to the estimated travel time, so Tom and Siobhan could relax and enjoy their last moments on the island.
