all stars go to the ferry, it is good and arrived on time. after the ferry, the bus driver told us that the transfer from the pier will take 5 hours instead of 2. as an alternative, he proposed to pay extra 1M IDR to organize a "private transfer" which, as he said, would take 1 hour. we took that option for 500k instead of 1M, and this transfer took us 3 hours. unbelievable.

The online booking said set off from Gili T at 11 and arrive by 1 but we didn’t get on the boat until 11.30 and then didn’t arrive until 2.36 so significantly later than advertised.
