About Semaya One
To get to the most picturesque islands you cannot avoid taking a ferry. Some destinations are served by larger and more stable car ferries, others are connected by smaller but faster high speedboats or catamarans. If you easily get seasick, avoid travelling by catamaran which rides the waves when the sea is rough – rather opt for a high speed boat as it cuts the water what results in a less rock-and-rolling trip. Also, taking a seat on an upper open-air deck may help weather high waves. Semaya One offers online tickets for ferry trips – it is not even necessary to pop in at their office to buy one.

What are the Ferry Classes & Prices of Semaya One?
The rule of thumb is the faster the boat, the higher the price is. Before booking, decide whether you need an express service or slower options are also acceptable. The rates for the latter are much more affordable. Yet the difference in the travel time may be really huge, so always check how long the ferry trip takes before you book your ticket. Also, the availability of some classes can be limited and always requires advanced booking. Always remember to check the pier your boat leaves from and docks at to choose the most convenient one for your onward trip and read other travellers' reviews.
Pros & Cons of Ferry Travel
Pros of Ferry Travel
- To take a ship is the only way to reach some of the islands. And in many cases – some of the most beautiful, postcard and paradise islands you have always wished to go!
- Different ticket classes are often available so you will be able to choose the fare, level of comfort, travel time, and schedule which suits you best.
- Book online to save time – on many routes, booking in advance is an absolute must. In the first place, it concerns longer trips, trips on busy periods like national holidays, long weekends or high season. It is a good idea to book at least several days prior to your travel date if your route is served by a limited number of trips per day, too.
- Travelling by ferry is fun. It is always nice to have a look at the places you have visited from another angle – well, in this case – from water. Almost any destination looks terrific from water and you will have a great opportunity to take brilliant pictures.
Cons of Ferry Travel
- Getting seasick is the major concern for ferry travellers. The longer is the trip and the rougher the sea is, the more chances to feel your stomach protesting. To make your trip more enjoyable, take the medicine half an hour before your trip and follow our recommendations from above.
- Ferry trips are highly weather dependent. It means that on rainy days departures can be delayed or even cancelled. It is not an uncommon thing to close the ferry connections even with bigger islands during stormy weather for several days. It means you should keep this possibility in mind if your ferry trip connects with a flight – chances to get to the mainland later than expected can be high during certain periods.

The air condition on the ferry didn't work.

Van AWas expecting the worst from all the bad google reviews, but everything went pretty smoothly. First boat was very hot to Nusa Penida but on the second one, even though without AC, there was enough wind to stay comfortable. I would suggest the company to have “vomit” bags handy as there were only 2 windows from where people who got sick could go relieve themselves. Had the ride been more rough, the consequences could be catastrophic!

Joanna BWe went from Nusa lembongan to Gili T and all was good. Boat came on time, they loaded and unloaded luggage fast. We had to change boats in Nusa penida. I am cutting one star as the first boat (from Nusa lembongan to Nusa penida) was shit - hot, no place to sit, no air, people were boiling in there. But fortunately it was a quick one and then we changed boat to a nice one.

Doreen SWe booked at very short notice at night and weren't sure whether the pick-up would work at 10 am. But everything was tip top. Our driver Wayan was also nice. Checking in at the port was quick and easy. We had breakfast there and then took the fast boat to the Gilis. Unfortunately it wasn't fast this time, it took almost 3 hours, but that was due to the swell. I thought it was really good that we were slower and didn't rush and jump over the waves like some people do, making you feel unsafe.

Odile RBoat smelled of petrol the entire ride. Hard to look outside so a bit seasick. Left 45 minutes later than planned (although the operator said at check in already it would leave half an hour later).
I actually booked another boat, but they changed the time and departure harbor. 12go emailed me about this asking if i wanted to cancel. I sais yes, because it was inconvenient for me. Then I never heard back again.

Belen MOn the 12go Asia website they give you like 3 schedule options when in reality there is only one. We booked the 12:30 ferry, when we arrived to check in they told us that there was only one ferry leaving at 13:00 and with luck (spoiler we ended up leaving at 13:45). We were not bothered by the delay itself (because we knew it could happen) but the fact that they sell you different schedules when in fact it is only one.

Tessa HTravelled with Semaya One to Gili Air and back. Both times the boat left on time. The ride takes 2,5 hours included stop at Gili T and Lombok on the way back.
First boat was more comfy than the second one, had a very bumpy way back.
They could be more communicative about the traveltime, stops and where to put your luggage ( gili T was stored the back of the boat, gili Air in the front)

Yuying LBoat was overbooked, seats were extremely cramped with my seat not having a seat back, poor airflow / AC. Friendly enough staff, no safety presentation. Luckily the weather was good enough to sit on the top deck for space and fresh air. Luggage handling was very casual, make sure they don’t offload your luggage at the wrong stop. Harbour ‘donation’ of IDR10k enforced by locals was quite abrupt. Heard other fast boat operators had nicer boats, and better service.

Kristina The staff was friendly but we didn’t get any information about that boat change in Nusa Penida. The first boat was old, windows were cracked and on that bumpy ride I felt a little bit uncomfortable, if the ride will be good.

Iman EToo expensive. The local people give you wrong information, so they can sell it to you overpriced and before you can go on the boat you have too pay tax again and after the arrival you also have to pay, to enter the island. The boat was okay.

Tanja GBoarding on time good in Gili T, but we didn’t knew that we have to drive to another Gili Iland and Lombok, because of that we arrived at 12:15 instead 11:15 in Bali, i asked some guests from Lombok there arrivaltime was 11:40.. why by us 11:15? If we knewd tgat we took abotherone boat..

Nerea MWe went from Lembongan to Gili T. We left half an hour late despite being few passengers. The first boat we got on was very hot, with no air or fans. The engine does not work properly because it took several attempts to start and then halfway stopped. In Nusa Penida we changed to another boat, the seats are ridiculously small, no leg room, too uncomfortable, obviously the air obviously does not go either, at least a little breeze came in through the windows.

Alexandra CWe got to the port one hour before departure & the boat ended up leaving at 10, instead of 9:30. The boat was packed & there was some people left without seats. The page I booked through stated that there would be wifi & a toilet, hence why I booked with them & there was neither of these. I would never expect wifi or a toilet but I had paid above the cheapest rate as these were identified as being on the boat. The boat was VERY hot & not an enjoyable ride at all.

Maria CI don't understand so many negative comments, really. In my case it was a great trip, it left 20 minutes late, yes, but the last hour and a half we went upstairs and it was amazing. We kept very good memories and we saw some dolphins from above.

Steven You could expect more, but on the other hand the price is fair. It was extremely hot in the boat and it is advisable to sit upstairs. Due to the speed, the windows have to stay closed and the heat builds up so that you sit in a sauna. There were 2 air conditioners, but they were off. The price was still fair.

Till HGood: the boat was on time, they divided the luggage in gili air and trewangan. Staff was very friendly and helpful
Not so good: AC wasn‘t working, windows were closed by the passengers sitting next to it, due to the splashwater. Therefore it was a bit like in a sauna 😅
Tip: it you geht your Ticket - don‘t forget to purchase your harbour tax ticket at the Counter close to the jetty

Oliwia OThe boat from Gili T to Padangbai always go through Gili Air and Lombok so add extra hour. There is no airco so its a hot box you are sitting in. The water gets in to the boat. However, It was better then Ostina.
