Bali Airport to Nusa Lembongan Transfer

Skip the taxi queue at Ngurah Rai — a private Toyota Alphard takes you straight to Sanur harbour for your fast boat to Nusa Lembongan, transfer from $180 (boat ticket booked separately).

Nusa Lembongan is an island, so there is no direct road transfer. A private car from Ngurah Rai Airport (DPS) to the Sanur fast-boat harbour is USD 180 in a Toyota Alphard — a single flat, all-inclusive rate per car (not per person) — and takes about 30–45 minutes. From there, a fast boat crossing of roughly 30–40 minutes (ticket booked and priced separately by the boat operator, not included in the $180 transfer rate) takes you on to Nusa Lembongan. Every transfer includes meet & greet at arrivals, fuel, tolls, chauffeur, free WiFi, bottled water and flight tracking, plus drop-off timed to your boat departure.

Why not a taxi?

Why choose a private transfer over a taxi

Airport taxi meters can run higher in traffic — our flat USD 180 Toyota Alphard rate for the airport–Sanur leg covers everything, with nothing extra to pay. Your driver drops you right at your chosen boat operator’s counter on the Sanur beachfront, timed to your departure, not just the general harbour area.

  • Meet & greet. Your driver waits at arrivals with a name board — no searching through crowds.
  • 60 minutes free waiting time. Plenty of margin for immigration, baggage claim and customs before the drive to Sanur.
  • Boat-timed drop-off. Tell us your boat operator and departure time — we’ll get you there with time to spare, not rushing at the last minute.
