Written by the company

The Smartest Way to Navigate the Gili Islands, since 2011. Gilibookings.com is the original and leading independent search and booking engine dedicated to travel in the Gili Islands and surrounding regions of Indonesia. Founded in 2011, Gilibookings was the first online booking platform in the region, created to solve the complexity of traveling by fast boat and ferry between Bali, Lombok, the Gilis and surrounding islands. Today, we remain a comprehensive technology platform that puts island travel at your fingertips through one comparison and booking hub. Before Gilibookings, planning a trip to the Gili Islands meant navigating fragmented operator websites, unclear schedules, and unreliable booking processes. We changed this by aggregating Indonesia’s key sea transport networks — from major fast boat companies operating Bali–Gili routes to local Lombok and inter-island transfers — into one transparent comparison and booking engine. Whether you’re traveling from Bali to Gili Trawangan, hopping between the Gilis, or connecting via Lombok, our platform lets you compare all available options side by side and secure the best route and price in one seamless transaction. We empower travelers with clarity, choice, and control. Our secure platform handles the booking technology, instant e-ticketing, and global payments, while our vetted local operators manage the journeys themselves. This clear separation ensures a smooth, reliable booking experience backed by a professional support team with deep regional expertise in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Join the hundreds of thousands of smart travelers who have trusted Gilibookings.com since 2011 to reach the Gili Islands with confidence — so you can focus on what truly matters: enjoying one of Indonesia’s most iconic island destinations.

In addition she agreed to reimburse our tickets.🙏
I strongly recommend Gilibookings!👍

This was not the same friendly attitude with HAVAS VOYAGE 👎our travel agency which gave us a 25% penalty…

Gili-island Transfer and Sudin Transport highly recommended

I had a great experience with Gili-island Transfers, who worked with Sudin Transport to provide seamless pick up at the Lombok Airport, drove my daughter and I to the port and put us on a boat to Gili Air. I made several changes to the reservation along the way and they were super professional, courteous, responsive, and efficient. The drivers were excellent and support staff amazing.

Booked a fast ferry plus hotel drop off from the arriving port. Communication was great. Staff made we sure got on the right ferry at the first port and ensured we got with the right driver when we arrived at the second port. Even provided bottled water at port 1 and water bottle and a simple snack at port 2. Very friendly.
