Gili Air to Kuta Destination Reviews

Amelie B

I got very scared when I read the reviews on Google Map about Karuniya Luxury fast cruise, after booking the ticket. But actually it went fine. Boat stopped in Lombok then went to Padang Bai. Taxi drivers were pushy yes but honestly not more than anywhere else. The van left not long after. The only problem was that we booked a drop off at bemo corner in Kuta but the driver dropped us at Ikea and didn't want to hear anything.

Gili Air to Kuta, Ferry Fast Boat + Shuttle, Gili Dewata Transfer, Mar 29, 2026

We took tickets from Gili Air to Kuta, but nowhere you can see the itinerary. We supposed we would go to Sanur then a transfer to Kuta. We went to Padang Bay and then a shuttle bus to Kuta. So we made 2h with the speed boat and 2h with the shuttle. The shady part begins in Padang Bay where someone who had my name knowing i was going to Kuta, was waiting for me and said that the shuttle bus ride takes 5 hours because there are a lot of stops, but if i want to get there faster he can recommend me a taxi. Good thing i went to the official transfer office where they confirmed the ride takes approximately 2h. 12go.asia someone from the inside is selling information about tourists.
