As the first rays of dawn painted the sky over Gili Air, we were already preparing for a very special journey. Lukas Weber and Frances Leitel, two travelers from Germany, had reached out to us via WhatsApp the day before, seeking a seamless, private transfer from the tranquil shores of Gili Air to the bustling Lombok Airport. Their request was clear: a fast boat to Gili, a smooth transition to a private car, and a guarantee they’d arrive in time for their morning flight to Jakarta. With two small backpacks, two big suitcases, and a sense of adventure, their story with LombokBoat.com was about to begin.
From WhatsApp Inquiry to Confirmed Booking: A Seamless Start
Our journey together began with a simple message: “Hi Lombok Boat, I would like to know about the private speedboat transfer service between Gili Air and Lombok airport.” We always love these moments—when a new adventure is about to unfold, and we get to be the bridge between island serenity and the next destination.
We responded promptly, “Hello, good afternoon! May we know when you need to do the trip?” Lukas replied, “Tomorrow, 6am.” The urgency was clear, but so was our commitment to making things easy. We checked our schedule and confirmed, “We still have seats available. May we know what time you need to arrive at the airport?”
“8am,” Lukas replied. “Flight is 9:40.”
With this information, we quickly mapped out the best route: a private speedboat from Gili Air to Teluk Nare, followed by a private car directly to Lombok Airport’s domestic departure. We reassured them, “We suggest you take the speedboat at 06.00 am, sir, because from Teluk Nare to the airport is around 1.5 hours. From Gili Air to Teluk Nare is around 8-10 minutes on the sea.”
Clear Communication, Flexible Service
Throughout our WhatsApp chat, we made sure every detail was crystal clear. Lukas asked, “So 6am is departure with the boat?” We confirmed, “Yes, that’s correct, sir.”
He wanted to know exactly where to be. “Where do we need to be tomorrow?”
We provided a Google Maps link to the Gili Air Port and explained, “The captain will be waiting for you at Gili Air Port tomorrow morning. After you’ve paid, we’ll send the address for check-in and the captain’s phone number.”
We also asked about their luggage to ensure a comfortable transfer: “How many suitcases and backpacks will you bring?” Lukas replied, “2 small backpacks and 2 big suitcases.”
Once all details were confirmed, we sent a secure payment link and, after receiving their payment, finalized the booking. “Thank you, we have received your payment. Please be ready around 06.00 am at the Harbour of Gili Air.”
Morning of Departure: Personalized Attention
On the morning of August 20th, our team was ready. The captain, Mr. Kasmir, was already at the harbor, keeping an eye out for Lukas and Frances. We had provided them with all the necessary contact details, just in case they needed extra assistance. Our goal is always to make our guests feel supported, even in the early hours of the day.
As Lukas and Frances arrived at the harbor, the gentle hum of the private speedboat awaited them. The sea was calm, the air fresh, and the promise of a smooth journey ahead. Our captain greeted them with a warm smile, helped with their luggage, and ensured they were comfortable before setting off.
Fast Boat to Gili: The Journey Across the Water
The private speedboat glided effortlessly across the turquoise waters, covering the distance from Gili Air to Teluk Nare in just under ten minutes. The early morning light danced on the waves, and the islands slowly faded into the distance. For Lukas and Frances, it was a peaceful, exclusive experience—no crowds, no waiting, just the freedom of a private transfer.
- Departure: 06:00 am from Gili Air Port
- Arrival: Teluk Nare Port, Lombok

Private Car Transfer: Comfort and Convenience
Upon arrival at Teluk Nare, our driver was already waiting, holding a sign with their names. We believe in making every transition as smooth as possible, so there was no need for Lukas and Frances to search or wait. Their luggage was carefully loaded into the car, and they settled in for the scenic drive to Lombok Airport.
The journey by private car took about 1.5 hours, winding through the lush landscapes of Lombok. Our driver ensured a comfortable ride, offering water and sharing local tips along the way.
