As the golden afternoon sun began to dip behind the lush hills of Lombok, our WhatsApp pinged with a simple, hopeful message: “Ok?” It was Peter Oshannessey from New Zealand, traveling with Kim and Peter Dinning from the UK, reaching out to us for a seamless journey from Lombok Airport to the sparkling shores of Gili Trawangan. Their adventure was about to begin, and we were thrilled to be their trusted guide for a private transfer and fast boat to Gili. From the very first chat, we knew this would be a journey to remember—one filled with warm welcomes, clear communication, and the promise of island magic just across the water.
From First Contact: A Journey Begins on WhatsApp
Our story with Peter, Kim, and Peter started with a friendly WhatsApp exchange. Their message was brief but full of anticipation, and we responded right away: “Yes, that’s possible, sir. We will make booking confirmation for you.” We believe every journey should start with clarity and care, so we quickly shared all the details they needed for their private transfer from Lombok Airport to Teluk Nare and private speedboat to Gili Trawangan.
We know that travel plans can be overwhelming, especially after a long flight. That’s why we made the booking process as simple as possible. When Peter asked, “How can we pay?” we replied, “Okay sir, we will send link payment for you.” Within minutes, a secure payment link was on its way, and we checked in to ensure everything was smooth: “Hi, have you checked the payment link?”
Peter’s reply made us smile: “Yes… I need to go back to hotel get my credit card… sorry please wait.” We assured him, “Okay sir, we hope you can do the payment as soon as possible.” Our flexibility and patience are part of our hospitality—travelers should never feel rushed or stressed.
Booking Confirmation: Every Detail Matters
Once the down payment was received, we sent a detailed confirmation:
- Pick up: Lombok Praya Airport (Domestic Terminal, Wings Abadi Airlines IW 1852, ETA 17:15 PM)
- Meeting Point: In front of KFC Airport Lombok (see map)
- Pick up time: 17:30 PM
- Drop off: Gili Trawangan Harbour
- Guests: 3 adults, 3 big suitcases, 1 small bag
- Payment: Remaining balance to be paid in cash to the captain
We always double-check the details, ensuring our guests feel confident and cared for. “Please review the details provided above and confirm the reservation. Let us know if everything is correct.” Our goal is to make every step transparent and stress-free, so travelers can focus on the excitement ahead.
Personal Touches: Hospitality Beyond the Booking
We love getting to know our guests. After confirming the booking, we asked, “May we know how many days you will holiday in Gili Trawangan?” Peter replied, “Not sure yet… no plans.” This spontaneity is what makes island travel so special! We took the opportunity to share some of our favorite activities:
- 🐎 1 Hour Horseback Riding on the beach
- 🤿 Shared Snorkeling Tour
- 🛶 Guided Sunrise/Sunset Kayaking Trip
We always offer these experiences with a smile, ready to help guests make the most of their time in paradise. “Let us know the number of any activity you’re interested in—we’re happy to help and can offer a special deal if available 😊.”
Arrival Day: Smooth Transfers and Friendly Faces
On the day of arrival, we kept in close contact. “Today the driver will be ready 17:30 pm at In front KFC Airport Lombok,” we reminded them, making sure the meeting point was crystal clear. We even asked for a photo to help our driver spot them easily—just another way we go the extra mile for our guests.
As their flight landed, a small delay with luggage could have been stressful, but Peter’s message was calm: “Still waiting luggage from flight… sorry very slow.” We replied, “Yes, it’s okay, no problem.” Our team is always patient and understanding—travel is full of little surprises, and we’re here to make sure none of them spoil the adventure.
Once they were on their way, Peter let us know: “Yes on way 👍.” We responded with genuine excitement: “That’s great, thank you.”
Private Transfer: Comfort and Convenience from Airport to Island
Our private transfer service is designed for comfort and ease. From the moment we met Peter, Kim, and Peter at the airport, we helped with their luggage—three big suitcases and a small bag—ensuring everything was loaded safely. The drive from Lombok Airport to Teluk Nare is scenic, passing through lush landscapes and glimpses of local life. Our driver shared local tips and answered questions, making the journey as enjoyable as the destination.
Upon arrival at Teluk Nare, our private speedboat was waiting. No crowded docks, no waiting in line—just a smooth transition from car to boat. The captain greeted them with a warm smile, ready to whisk them across the turquoise waters to Gili Trawangan. Payment was handled simply and securely, with the remaining balance paid directly to the captain.
Fast Boat to Gili: The Final Leg to Paradise
The fast boat to Gili is always a highlight. As the sun set over the ocean, the boat glided across calm waters, offering breathtaking views of the Gili Islands on the horizon. The journey was private, peaceful, and perfectly timed—no crowds, just the sound of the sea and the promise of island adventure.
Arriving at Gili Trawangan Harbour, our guests stepped onto the sand, ready to begin their holiday. We checked in one last time: “Thank you for using our service.” Their smiles and gratitude were the best reward for our team.
