I have travelled, by ferry, it usually is a drama, firstly the corrupt police(demanding money ) I have paid them off so many times...u have to pay or u dont go...thats how it is !SIMPLY I usually drive.The ferry can be a real ride of terror,the boat is chocos FULL the boat is really old, the toilets ( I wont even go there )..there's a lot of water between both islands..the life jackets are on the brand new side and are padlocked up in a wire cage so there is no way you can get your hands on one.I have never heard of one going down... apart from that on a beautiful day the boat trip is amazing (I'm am freaking out all the way until my 2 feet are on solid ground)...why do I go... read annieSwan its another world I cruise the island then go over to the Gilis.
