Gili Islands to Padangbai Destination Reviews

The worst company I have ever used. They were lying from the first second on and in total it took us more than 7hours from Gili Air to Canggu. Stupidly we used the transport bus from the same crappy company. The ferry was overheated and started 1 hour later than promised, the bus transfer was taking a stupid way to bring 3 people to another destination which yields in a 3 hours detour for all the remaining 7 participants (there were no conversation about that detour before), they told us it takes 1.5-2hours car ride, but in fact we were picked off 10km apart from the agreed destination in Canggu after 4hours car ride and had to pay again for a taxi to bring us to the correct location. The bus driver was very unfriendly. Don‘t support this company!!!

There was a delay of more than 1.5 hours!!!
The departure time on the tickets didn’t apparently correspond to the real departure time

The Ferry was late. The ferry was hot inside with fans in front only. The windows were to high to see any scenery but the sky. Apart from that is was a good crossing.

the Greeter in Gili Air does not ask all fo the questins and points he needs at once : he had to return to me 3 times (after checking in at his desk!) to :
- register me
- then ask for pier /visa fees
- then ask for passport copy
= that creates stress...
IN THE MEAN TIME
- he did not forget to make me pay 200 K for a "private driver"
- he forgets to give the seasick tablets
THEN he sends us under the heavy rain to board in = he could have organized, with the heavy weather and rain we had, to make sure everybody had disembark from the previous boat before sending us under the heavy rain

They said it would take 2 hours on the website. It took 4 hours and they stopped in two other islands.

We had air conditioning throughout the trip. Overall the seats were comfortable and seemed to have more leg room than other ships.

Tuvimos aire acondicionado durante todo el trayecto. En general los asientos cómodos y parece tener mas espacio de piernas que otros barcos
