The trip was fine altogether although it does state arrival at 10am, however the ferry doesn’t leave until 9.30 on the sign in the shop, however we didn’t leave until gone 10.30am and takes roughly 2 hours. Was safe and it was slightly unorganised chaos but we did have lanyards so that made it slightly easier

Was very anxious about the journey after hearing a lot of horror stories. It was better than I expected. The van was old, there was no ac and the windows wouldn't go down; luckily there was only 3 of us so we had some room to ourselves.
It was a really good and i was surprised how smooth everything went! The driver picked us up at 6.50am and drove us to the harbour. We got our boarding passes and they tell us when we leave. There is a fee at the harbour and one on the island. The boat wasnt really fast but it was alright. At some point i saw a butterfly and could observe it! On the site they said 7 to 10 but we arrived at 1.30 to Gili Air. The rest was really good!

Waited over an hour on the boat. When the boat arrived there was no seats left, had to sit on the roof of the boat for 2 hours. Not good do not recommend

The transfer to the pier was ok, but no belts. The trip from the pier to gili air was awfull. I have been in other speed boats but this one was the worst! It seemed like it was going to split in 2. Do not recommend.
Time of arrival at gili was almost 3 hours later.

We arrived where we wanted to go, so that's fine.
Just pay attention that your taxi transfer is included. On the pdf ticket it was written "transfer included" but, they still wanted to make us pay 500.000 for a pickup (???!). Our bus-taxu otherwise was really nice.
Then, be ready also to add 10.000 at the harbour for an creative "harbour fee" + 10.000/pax for another creative "island entrance fee".

Due to bad weather a lot of boats were canceled and we were kind of afraid. So we booked our boat with driver via 12go asia and the Service was great we got an e-mail in advance that they will bring us to a different port. The driver was very friendly and on time. At the port he showed us where we get the Tickets. The Boat was ok. It‘s a long ride and the best thing to do is to sleep. Believe me. There is not much space for your legs and two days later i sadly have still a numb feeling on my knee…

Transfer was good! Boat was late to depart and took much longer than billed but that was ok as we weren’t in a rush. Padangbai port is a bit crazy, not much there and it’s quite unorganised

Maybe I was extremely lucky, maybe they're changing for the better but my experience was good.
They picked me up at the hotel on time, the van was comfortable, the driver was nice.
Then we got to the harbor and everyone got numbered lanyards.
We did leave 45 minutes late but the boat was comfortable. I sat in front and could feel the ac (it was loud. Noise-canceling headphones help).
It took us 1:54 minutes from Bali to Gili T.
They even explained about a scam where people try to talk you out of the free transfer and told us to go straight to their offices to arrange the shuttle.
Some things to note:
I saw many people having entire breakfasts in line and then throwing up. It's a speed boat. It will be a rough ride even on a sunny day. Bring your own plastic bag if you're prone to being seasick.
Waiting for the luggage was the most chaotic part. Oh and also having to pay two fees (one leaving Bali and another arriving in Gili).
There's a banner explaining that people who take the shuttle to Sanur, Kuta, and Seminyak can be dropped at their hotels. For every other destination, they'll leave you at the city center.
