About Wahana Virendra Fast Boat
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. Wahana Virendra Fast Boat 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 Wahana Virendra Fast Boat?
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.

Wahana Virendra Fast Boat Company Reviews

Bethan BThe sped boat was lovely and comfortable and quick but the hotel transfer never showed up and was not contactable despite numerous messages and phone calls. I had to order and pay for a taxi then to rush to the harbour and we managed to just get on before the boat left. It was very stressful.

Christian DIt was just perfect! We had the 13.30 boat, arrived a bit late at 13.00 but that was no problem. Boarding started at exactly at 13.30. When we arrived we were greeted by a staff member, our suit cases were taken out by the staff from the cab. Got our tickets and grabbed a beer. The boat was comfy, great seats and good airco. Staff was helpful on the boat. Smooth sealing! Will use them again for sure. You pay a bit more, worth the money.

Cornelia HGood company, nothing much to complain.
We took the early ride at 8:30 in the morning and left pretty much on time (+10min). The staff was friendly and professional and - despite what other comments said - we arrived at Bangsal Lombok as the last stop after 2.5 hours.
The ferry gets very crammed after Gili T with loud party tourists (as you'd expect from that island) but the first half of the ride was excellent, comfy and calm.
What could be improved is the expected check-in time of 1hour prior.. it's a bit much, especially in the morning (there's a kinda pricey restaurant just next to the company's office).

Adele PWe left Gili Air 45 minutes late and arrived in Padang Bai 1 hour early. We'll leave you to imagine how fast the boat was going ???? it could have been quite impressive on the first hectic part of the journey (albeit on calm seas)...
we'll take off one star for the lack of information on the delay, the pick-up at the port, and the progress of the trip.
We did, however, benefit from the air-conditioning on board and the quality of the boat (very recent).

Vlad SThe boat left half hour later than scheduled, but it arrived on time on Gili T. The waiting and boarding was well organized, we arrived at the port one hour earlier and had time to have our lunch there. There was no line to get your ticket, so we could've arrived later with no problem.
The boat was spacious, the seats big and comfortable, and the sea not too agitated.

Daniel AWe had a good experience. We checked in and our luggage was labeled for Gili Air. Beware of the fact that you have to pay 10k pp port taxes. Then we could wait at the restaurant and had a lunch. Nothing special, busy, but fine.
Around the departure time (13.30) we started walking to the pier. The boat had comfortable seats, the AC didn’t work, so it was quite warm. But free water was available. Some windows could be opened, some not because of the spray. We departed 25 minutes late (13.55), but still arrived around 16.00 at Gili Air. The staff was friendly and the trip was quite fast. If we’ll go again we’ll go with Wahana Virenda.

Sonja SWe left the scooter for 2 days in their parking for a small fee. They are truly professional, and on our way to Gili Trawangan, we arrived 30 minutes earlier than expected. The ride was comfortable with the air conditioning on throughout the journey. All in all, we received excellent service from Whana Virendra.

Syed MWe have had a great experience using this service.. AC, seats and overall experience using Wahana was great. Although their prices are slightly higher then other operators but I highly recommend using them. Please remember that you will be charged 10k IDR per person to enter the harbour paid directly at counter when you receive your boarding pass and scanable ticket.

Joshua GHad heard mixed reviews of the crossing from Padang Bai but Wahana Virendra and all the crew handled everything excellently. On arriving at the Wahana Virendra desks at the port there is plenty of seating and a restaurant. They chaperone you all through the port and onto the boat when your departure time comes and the boat itself is comfortable, spacious, has toilet facilities and plenty of air conditioning. Would definitely recommend.

Molly MLeft Padangbai 10 mins late but arrived in Gili Air on time. Luggage treated well, enough seats on the boat and good air con. Would say you probably don’t need to arrive an hour early, I’d do 40 mins next time I think as there was a lot of waiting around

Benjamin AThe travel was good. The boat is large and confortable. Pretty on time, we left only 10 minutes late but I don’t consider this to be late.
Before the trip I read online scary experiences about multiple fast boat companies but I think it depends also a lot on the weather conditions.

Lindsay LThis company is great, the boat is great, it's very comfortable and the staff are very professional. There's A/C on the boat and it's way better than the other boat companies! Two things to be aware of, though. Fist of all, they boarded 30 minutes early, and left 15 minutes early, which great if you're there, but it's not so good if you run into any problems. But they tell you to be there 1 hour early, so I guess that's why. So DON'T listen to the travel companies or taxi guys who say, "Oh don't worry, all the boats leave late." These guys don't!
Next, I asked the guy just as I boarded how long the trip will take to Bangsal. He said, "Just 1.5 hours." It gets to the first stop which is Gili T in 1.5 hours, but there are 2 stops before Bangsal, and he knows that. ALL the boats arrive much later than they say on the listings, so I don't know why they don't just say the real time. Especially considering I asked him once I was already there and he could have just told me the truth. The trip took almost 3 hours. Not such big deal for me, but better to know the real time. Maybe it was because of the weather conditions, I have no idea, but it was a nice day as far as I could see. And reading the reviews of ALL the companies, I think this is just normal for the ferries.
But definitely recommend this company over the others!

Traci WThey tell you to get there an hour early but you don’t need to because you just stand around and wait. Instead of departing at 8:30am, we walked to the ferry at that time and left at 9:00am. We arrived before 10:30am which is slightly early. I did not get seasick at all, even though i was really hungover :) Would totally recommend!

Shimene PIf you've travelled on shocking boat transfers through Indonesia, stop here and look no further. We walked into the cabin expecting 35 degree humidity and squishy seats, and generally the basic things we'd had previously and was shocked. Tan, cushy, leather seats, 4 (working) new air conditioning unit and leg room with a foot rest! The boat just ripped through the water, cutting our journey to a speedy 1 hour when we expected 3. Legends. Thank you. I wish we found these people earlier.
