You specify where you want to be picked up and based on your address shuttle bus will pick you up roughly two hours before your speedboat’s departure. Please be ready to leave at the moment notice. You can wait in your hotel room or the lobby. The driver asks typically for you at the reception using your name from the reservation form.

Sure, that's not a problem at all.

Most of the fast boat companies that we offer do pick up and drop off at Denpasar international airport DPS. Very often, the meeting point is in the commercial zone by the terminal for domestic flights, which is just next door to the international terminal (5 minutes walk). Make sure you add phone number and flight details when booking a ticket. Also, you should count with enough time to catch a boat. Example: Your plane lands at 8:00 it may be enough time to get pick up is at 9:30 for a boat that departs at 11:30 (the pick up is at least 2hours before the boat departures). We do not have any responsibility for a possible delay of the provided transport and also for any missed flights. The burden lays on the company you chose in a booking process. (generally: lower the price of the company is lower the level of responsibility and reliability is).

You should get to the pickup point which is closest to your place and be there roughly two hours before (depends on a pickup point) your boat’s departure as well as the chosen harbor. If you want to be picked up, you should specify the pickup point address in the pickup address. And put there your phone number, in case of an emergency.

Sure, you can add the transfer request on your booking log or simply contact us on Facebook or WhatsApp. Please notice, the FB companies have cut off time on 6pm local Bali time (Western Australian Time) on a day before departure date.

Not really, most Fast Boat companies only provide transfer on Bali. Rocky fast boat provides transfer on Nusa Lembongan and Bali.

Most of the cars are minibus with the name of a fast boat company on the side body or back window. Please wait in the place mentioned in the pick-up confirmation mail. Provide your WhatsApp number when making the reservation so the driver can reach for you If struggling to find you. If you request drop off service, please follow the ground staff instruction in harbor, they will show your vehicle. Please ignore any false information given by a freelance driver that will try to distract you from following your fast boat company instructions.

Unfortunately, no. We only accept Credit card or PayPal payment.

There is no problem to refund. We have a cancelation policy that applies to all the reservations. If you decide to cancel two weeks before departure, it is a 100% refund. After two weeks you will get 50% back, and two days before departure, there is no refund. Please note that we charge a handling and transaction fee that applies to all refunds. It is always good to consider rescheduling of your trip before you decide to cancel. If you are not satisfied with the level of services, please contact us. We can review your case individually and consider refunding your ticket fully (or at least a part). For example, if you miss the boat due to some error of the transportation company. We always try to resolve any issues to the satisfaction of our customers. The handling fee is charged in the case of cancelation due to officially announced bad conditions of weather under which fast boat companies are not allowed to provide services.

That would be BlueWater express or Gili Getaway. They are expensive but very exclusive. Their service is better than others. And also the price is higher

Anything up to 30 kilos is allowed per person. Big suitcases or surfboards included. The boats have luggage compartments, so your luggage stays safe and secure during the boat ride. 

It depends how old is your baby, two years and younger are free of charge. However, traveling with a baby is not recommended. The sea can get quite choppy, and it might get uncomfortable for a baby. In case you want to travel to Gili, pick the largest boat possible – In this case we recommend EkaJaya.  And also it's convenient to go from Padang Bai, rather than a port on the south of Bali because boat ride is shorter. An alternative is to fly to Lombok and then a super short boat ride to Gilis.

If you want to travel around all the Gili Islands, the best way is to buy single trips at the local harbors. There is a ticket office for a small public boat between the islands. Then just hop on the first boat available. It takes a couple of minutes and doesn’t cost much. We don’t organize tickets for those transfers.

It depends on from which port you are going. If you are going from Padang Bai, it's short, only 1 hour and 30 minutes. If you choose a port in the south of Bali (Sanur, Benoa, Serangan), it usually takes 3 hours. Some ships also stop by in Padang Bai for more passengers. Shortest is the ride from Amed (Noth of Bali) it is just an hour. 

If you are going to the port by your transportation, please have in mind traffic in Bali is very slow and sometimes there might be a traffic jam, because of the ceremony. So always have reasonable time reserve. If you want to use pickup by shuttle bus, they usually pick you up at least 2 hours before boat departures. 

You can show your e-tickets on your mobile phone or other devices to be exchanged with printed FB tickets when you check-in

Changing names is fine even last minute before the trip. Changing dates, however, can be more complicated, especially during the high season. Most of our partnering companies are very flexible and do not mind changing the date of the travel, even two or one-day prior departure. It is always better to make the change as soon as possible to avoid complications. If your departure is in less than seven days, we cannot guarantee free date change. But from our experience, there is always a way to make it free. Contact our customer support. 

Sure. If you want to reschedule your booking with different FB, simply send your request on your booking log or via Facebook or WhatsApp. There will be a price match for the new trip you requested. If the new price is lower, we will refund your extra payment bigger then 6 euros; But if the new price is more expensive, we will send you a payment request via PayPal.

The bad weather warning is an authority statement provided by the master of the harbor. It prohibits fast boat companies (FB) from traveling across the sea to avoid any risk caused by bad weather and high tide. It is binding all FB on specific time and area (usually Bali Strait). On that situation, if you’ve booked with us, you can either reschedule your trip, take optional trip arranged by FB, or request a cancellation.

No, after you receive the e-ticket the Fast Boat company should react fast to confirm or reject your booking. Once they do so the status of your order changes and you are informed by email also about the time of your pick up in case you requested hotel transfer.
