(Translated by Google) A nightmare
We had heard that the crossing could be sporty but we did not expect that… after more than an hour of delay we boarded a tiny boat with the help of a boat that took on water and that we have to push ourselves. In the boat 40 people piled up and bags of vomit hung everywhere which announce the color well… I was sitting half outside on the bridge suddenly every second waterspouts fell on me, I was completely soaked and no one was doing anything to give me a towel or find me another seat. The crossing was just HORRIBLE, we were going a mile an hour, 3 times we stopped in the open sea due to engine failure, they fixed it in the open sea with the disgusting gasoline smells that go with it.. .here nobody cares about you, there is no service. For the return we used GiliGetAway and it’s day and night. They welcome you with towel, sweets, bottles of water. If you want to go to the Gilis I do not recommend leaving Amed because it is the same for all the companies a priori.

Un cauchemar
Nous avions entendu que la traversée pouvait être sport mais nous ne nous attendions pas à ça… après plus d’une heure de retard nous montons dans un minuscule bateau à l’aide d’une barque qui prend l’eau et que nous devons nous-même pousser. Dans le bateau 40 personnes entassées et des sacs à vomis accrochés partout qui annoncent bien la couleur… j’étais assise à moitié dehors sur le pont du coup à chaque seconde des trombes d’eau me tombaient dessus, j’étais entièrement trempé et personne ne faisait rien pour me donner une serviette ou me trouver une autre place. La traversée était juste HORRIBLE, nous allions à mille à l’heure, 3 fois nous nous sommes arrêtés en pleine mer à cause de pannes de moteur, ils ont réparés cela en pleine mer avec les odeurs d’essence degueulasses qui vont avec… ici tout le monde s’en fout de vous, il n’y a aucun service. Pour le retour nous avons utilisé GiliGetAway et c’est le jour et la nuit. Ils vous accueillent avec serviette, bonbons, bouteilles d’eau. Si vous voulez allez sur les Gilis je déconseille de partir d’Amed parce que c’est la même pour toutes les compagnies à priori. – via

A nightmare
We had heard that the crossing could be sporty but we did not expect that… after more than an hour of delay we board a tiny boat using a boat which is taking on water and that we ourselves must push. In the boat, 40 people crammed together and vomit bags hanging everywhere which really announce the color… I was sitting half outside on the deck so every second torrents of water fell on me, I was completely soaked and no one did anything to give me a towel or find me another place. The crossing was just HORRIBLE, we were going a thousand an hour, 3 times we stopped in the open sea due to engine failure, they repaired it in the open sea with the disgusting gasoline smells that go with it.. . here everyone doesn’t care about you, there is no service. For the return we used GiliGetAway and it was night and day. They welcome you with towel, candy, bottles of water. If you want to go to the Gilis I do not recommend leaving from Amed because it is the same for all companies a priori. – via

We booked the ticket for the fast boat from Gili Air to Amed at a shelter at the beach in Gili Air.
Never again. We could not use the fast boat due to the rough sea. So it was only possible to came to Bali by a big ferry from the south of Lombok to Padang bai. So far so good, not the fault of any company. We were told that the tour takes 6 hours instead of 1 hour. Check in time was 11 AM So we thought we will arrive in Amed in the evening. We started half past 12 PM and arrived in the middle of the night at half past 1 AM in Padang bai, where nobody was waiting for us to drive us to Amed. We had no hotel reservation in Padang bai and every hotel was already closed, that we had to sleep on a bench at the harbour.
I confronted the travel agency by email hoping they can arrange a transfer to Amed at the next morning and to cover the incremental cost I had to pay for the hostel. But they don’t care about it because I booked the tour in a shelter and not in their office. – via

(Translated by Google) Not recommendable!
Booked this boat to get from Gili Air to Amed.
There is no sign or indication of where the boat really starts on Gili Air, since there is no office there either.
After a 1 hour delay, a small, narrow boat with absolutely zero legroom and a bad gasoline smell was waiting for us.
The highlight of the trip was that the engine simply failed during the trip.
So don’t be tempted by the cheaper offer!

Nicht zu empfehlen!
Haben dieses Boot gebucht um von Gili Air nach Amed zu kommen.
Auf Gili Air findet sich nirgends ein Schild oder Hinweis, wo das Boot wirklich startet, da es dort auch kein Büro gibt.
Nach 1h Verspätung erwartete uns dann ein kleines enges Boot mit absolut Null Beinfreiheit und einem üblen Benzingeruch.
Höhepunkt der Fahrt war dann, dass der Motor einfach während der Fahrt ausfällt.
Also nicht von dem günstigeren Angebot locken lassen! – via

PACKT EURE WERTVOLLEN SACHEN WASSERDICHT EIN -ES IST SEHR ENG – 3x mit diesem service gefahren. Für jede fahrt 200k irp bezahlt. Für den preis im bezug auf die strecke und den abholservice in amed kann man nichts sagen. Normalerweise fährt das boot an die küste so das man nur knietief ins wasser muss. Wenn die wellen aber höher sind muss das gepäck so wie man selbst via kleinem boot auf das schnellboot gebracht werden. – via
