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. The Tanis Fast Cruise 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 The Tanis Fast Cruise?
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.

Unfortunately we were put on a cheaper boat, not the one we paid extra money for. Pretty disappointed, but hopefully we will get a discount for the fare difference. The boat we ended up on was very run down.

We travelled from Sanur to Nusa Penida and had a stop at Nusa Lemborgan. We had to stay in the boat until the other guests with a smaller boat to the coast arrive- the smaller boat had to drive 3times until everyone was at the coast. We waited 1 hour in a shaky boat so I got see sick .. that was unpleasant …

The crew was playing extremely loud music, drinking wishkey and beer, most of them were drunk. It was probably to entertain the passengers but It didnt feel safe at all, in case of something happen, I will not trust the crew. Also the departure harbour was nos the same as the arrival, creating extra cost for the transportation.

Salimos una hora y media tarde! El barco más viejo y desastroso que había en el puerto. El aire acondicionado no funcionaba y toda la gente mareándose de estar con ese calor en un barco sin aire. Una experiencia horrible. Por favor evita StartFish si puedes y elige otra opción

Unfortunately the air conditioning was not working. There were no fans and the windows did not open. The heat was unbearable. No water was offered. This was a four and a half hour ferry ride. After several hours, we walked back and saw that the air conditioning at the rear of the boat was working, so we moved back there. Our first trip though was great when the air conditioning was working.

Quite quick, relatively comfortable most of the time and generally hassle free. But similar to budget airlines, they try to cram too many people into too small a space. No onboard facilities, drinks etc and the ONE toilet for 120 passengers was a disgrace.
Staff friendly and helpful and access to and from the boat quite easy.

They put our luggage on top of the boat. During the journey, the seawater soaked all our luggage, rendering our clothes unwearable. The staff didn't inform us beforehand. If you choose to take this type of boat, you need to put a plastic bag or something similar over your luggage. Friendly reminder.

I must say that at the Sanur port, the Tanis company I booked with you was very kind. My ticket was for the 9:00 departure, but since I wasn't able to take the fast boat, they changed my ticket and put me on the boat that left at 12:00 without charging me anything. They were very kind, so excellent service. The trip was a bit hectic due to the very rough seas.

They didn't tell us we use teo boats. Would not recommend for people that are very young or elderly as we would have to climb down into the boat from the roof while driving.

I ordered a boat at 9:50. Right before 22 in the evening I get a WhatsApp message from the operator that they changed schedule to 9:00 and that I had to be there at least 1 hour before departure to check in. I went to bed before 22 but thankfully I put the alarm on early. When I stressfully reached the check in place before 8 nobody was there 😂 I had to wait 35 minutes to check in. The boat departured 09:20. the ride was super uncomfortable. Never again.

Had a great experience traveling with them from Lembongan til Gili Air. I was the only one traveling with them from there and they were so nice and welcoming. Doing the trip they handed out seasick tablets and the carried my bag on and off the boat. Would recommend.

Everything went very well! The driver arrived on time at the Coco supermarket (10:00 am). The driving and service were excellent. Upon arriving at Sanur port, the driver got out to collect our credentials and ferry tickets and gave them to each passenger. He then dropped us off at the boarding area, where the ferry staff collected our luggage. We had to wait there for over an hour until the ferry departed (12:00 pm). The boarding process was smooth, and the crossing to Nusa Penida was very pleasant, as the sea was calm. We arrived at Banjar Nyuh port exactly 45 minutes later. Disembarkation was quick, with immediate delivery of our luggage. The only thing I didn't like was that the boat was very old, worn, and dirty.

The change of boat at Nusa Lembongan was not mentioned, also the subsequent boat was non-AC. Not sure if this is the process across all the speed boat companies.

Deducted one star for the strong smell of petrol in the cabin and for being 75 minutes late arriving. On the plus side, the boat was comfortable, coped well with the waves and the aircon worked. The staff were organised and friendly. Transfer to hotel was easy with good communication using WhatsApp regarding pickup and the delay.
