As the sun dipped below the horizon on December 22, 2025, our team at LombokBoat.com was buzzing with anticipation. We were preparing to welcome a special group of travelers from South Korea—Park Sangseok, Park Duheon, Kim Hyungtae, Park Seungmi, and little Kim Loha—who had entrusted us with their journey from Lombok Airport to the enchanting shores of Gili Trawangan. Their adventure began not with a ticket in hand, but with a simple WhatsApp message, brimming with curiosity and excitement about a private speedboat transfer. From that very first “Hello Good evening,” we knew this would be a journey to remember, not just for our guests, but for us as well.
From WhatsApp to Welcome: The Start of a Seamless Journey
Our story with the Park family began in the digital realm, where travel dreams often take shape. Their message was clear and direct: “Hi Lombok Boat, I would like to know about the private speedboat transfer service between Lombok and the Gili Islands.” We responded promptly, eager to provide clarity and comfort. The group, consisting of four adults and one child, wanted to ensure every detail was perfect—from the number of backpacks to the timing of their arrival.
We pride ourselves on making the booking process as smooth as the Lombok seas at dawn. Our WhatsApp chat was filled with friendly exchanges, practical questions, and a few lighthearted moments:
- Guest: “We have only backpacks! 😃😃😃”
- Us: “That’s perfect, sir! Our private car will have plenty of space for you and your bags.”
- Guest: “What if there’s a delay? Also, is there a chance the boat won’t be able to operate in the evening due to bad weather?”
- Us: “No worries, sir. Our driver will wait at the airport until you arrive, and we’ll keep you updated about the boat. Evening departures are common, and the sea crossing is just 8-10 minutes.”
We believe that every question deserves a thoughtful answer, and every concern is an opportunity to show our commitment. Whether it was about flight delays, weather, or payment, we responded with patience and solutions, ensuring our guests felt supported every step of the way.
Effortless Booking: Clarity, Flexibility, and Hospitality
Booking a fast boat to Gili should be as relaxing as the island breeze. Our process is designed for convenience:
- Inquiry: Guests reach out via WhatsApp for information about tiket kapal from Lombok to Gili Trawangan.
- Personalized Quotation: We provide a clear, all-inclusive offer, tailored to group size and needs.
- Details Collection: We confirm flight details, names, and special requests—like the number of backpacks or preferred pick-up time.
- Payment: A secure payment link is sent, and confirmation is provided as soon as payment is received.
- Final Confirmation: We share the meeting point (in front of KFC at Lombok Airport), driver details, and a friendly reminder to send a group photo for easy identification.
Throughout the process, our communication was open and reassuring. When the Park family asked, “Can we note pick up around 08.00 pm?” we replied, “Of course, sir. Our driver will be ready and waiting for you.” Even when they requested a special rate, we were happy to accommodate, reflecting our flexibility and appreciation for their trust.
Arrival in Lombok: A Warm Welcome and Smooth Transfer
On the evening of December 22, our driver was stationed at the agreed meeting point—right in front of KFC at Lombok International Airport, a spot chosen for its convenience and easy visibility. The Park family’s flight, OD-366, was scheduled to land at 7:45 pm. We monitored the arrival in real-time, ready to adjust if there were any delays.
As the family emerged from the terminal, smiles and backpacks in tow, our driver greeted them with a friendly wave and a sign bearing their names. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, setting the tone for the journey ahead. Our private car, spacious and comfortable, was waiting to whisk them away to Teluk Nare, the gateway to the Gili Islands.

- Direct and Private: No waiting for other passengers or sharing with strangers—just your group, your schedule.
- Flexible Timing: We adjust to your flight, not the other way around. Delays? We wait for you.
- Comfort and Safety: Modern vehicles and experienced drivers ensure a pleasant ride from airport to harbor.
- Fast Boat to Gili: Our private speedboat from Teluk Nare to Gili Trawangan takes just 8-10 minutes, even in the evening.
Crossing to Paradise: The Speedboat Experience
Upon arrival at Teluk Nare, our team assisted the Park family with their backpacks and guided them to their private speedboat. The night air was cool, and the sea calm—a perfect setting for a short but memorable crossing. The lights of Gili Trawangan twinkled in the distance, promising adventure and relaxation.
Our captain ensured everyone was comfortable and briefed the group on safety. Within minutes, the boat glided across the water, leaving the mainland behind. The journey was smooth, and the excitement was palpable as the island drew closer. For the Park family, this was more than just transportasi to Gili Trawangan; it was the beginning of their island escape.
Arrival and Reflections: A Journey to Remember
By 10:00 pm, the Park family stepped onto the sands of Gili Trawangan, greeted by the gentle sounds of the sea and the promise of new experiences. Our team’s job was done, but the memories were just beginning. We checked in one last time via WhatsApp to ensure everything had gone smoothly, and their gratitude was the best reward we could ask for.
Looking back, what made this journey special was not just the efficiency of our Lombok to Gili Islands transfer, but the warmth and care woven into every interaction. From the first message to the final farewell, we were more than a service provider—we were travel companions, dedicated to making every moment enjoyable and stress-free.
