As the sun dipped low over Lombok’s lush hills on December 29, 2025, we were eagerly preparing for a special guest: Muhammad Haikal Bin Zulkifli, or “Haiky” as he introduced himself in our WhatsApp chat. Traveling solo from Singapore, Haiky was about to embark on a seamless journey from Lombok International Airport to the sparkling shores of Gili Trawangan, trusting us at LombokBoat.com to handle every detail. From his first friendly message to the moment he set foot on the island, Haiky’s story is a perfect example of how our private transfer service transforms travel into a smooth, memorable adventure.
From WhatsApp to Welcome: The Start of Haiky’s Gili Islands Journey
Our story with Haiky began with a simple WhatsApp message: “Hi Haiky, thank you for contacting Lombok Boat. Sorry. We just can arrange private speedboat.” Instantly, we knew this was a traveler who valued clarity and efficiency. Haiky replied with cheerful enthusiasm, “Just one person! Just me & I don’t have any luggages, just one backpack! How do we make that arrangement, let me know!”
We pride ourselves on making the booking process for a fast boat to Gili as easy as possible. Our team responded promptly, asking for his details and confirming his preference for a full package: Airport Lombok – Teluk Nare Port – Gili Trawangan. Haiky appreciated our flexibility, especially when he asked, “Oh if you could include that in the package that’d be great too :)” We assured him, “Yes, right. We can arrange the private transfer for you.”
Simple, Secure Booking: Every Step Made Easy
One of the highlights of our service is the simplicity of booking. Haiky’s questions were direct and practical, reflecting the concerns of many travelers:
- How do I get from Lombok Airport to Gili Trawangan?
- Can I make it to Gili before 8pm?
- How do I pay?
We provided clear answers, confirming his flight details (TR258, ETA 4:10PM) and reassuring him that our driver would be waiting at the agreed meeting point: in front of KFC at Lombok Airport. When Haiky asked about payment options, we offered a secure online payment link, ensuring a hassle-free transaction. Within minutes, he replied, “I’ve made the payment already 🙂 Received?” Our team quickly confirmed, “Yes, thank you for your payment.”
Personal Touches: Communication and Flexibility
Travel plans can change, and we understand the importance of flexibility. Haiky was mindful of possible delays at immigration, so we assured him, “We will note the driver waiting at 4:30PM in front of KFC Airport Lombok.” He appreciated the update and asked for the driver’s contact, which we provided promptly. Our communication remained open and friendly throughout:
- “Do you have data internet?”
- “How many you will bring suitcases and backpacks?”
- “Just 1 bag. Yes I have data!”
Even when Haiky updated us last minute, “Actually sir! I have one small luggage and 1 backpack x,” we responded, “Yes, it’s okay, no problem, thank you for letting us know.” Our goal is always to make our guests feel supported and at ease.
Seamless Transfers: From Airport to Island
On the day of travel, everything unfolded smoothly. Our driver, Irfan Hamdan Ipar, was ready and waiting at the meeting point. Haiky’s message, “I’m about to board my flight now! See you in a few hours!” was met with our warm wishes for a safe journey.
Upon arrival, we checked in: “Hi Muhammad Haikal Bin Zulkifli, have you arrived at Airport Lombok?” His quick reply, “Yeah sit. I’m in the car now to the ferry port. What’s the address btw?” was met with reassurance: “The driver already knows the address, on the way to Teluk Nare Harbour.”
