The a la carte selection serves up the choice of three courses, with a mix of Mediterranean cuisine, regional foods and international flavours. The self service area contains a fast and informal restaurant setting, with extensive choices to suit all. The snack bar serves up breakfast, lunch, dinner and that something small in between if you are feeling peckish. This includes a variety of meal options and sandwiches, fruit salads and ice creams, to name a few.

Onboard Shopping

A shopping centre can be found on Fantastic where you can enjoy some duty free shopping whilst making your crossing. Voyagers have the chance to buy gifts and pick up some great bargains on items such as perfume, aftershave, alcohol and other selected items.

  • "A good way to visit Sicily"

    I used the ferry at the end of a trip to Palermo to get back to Naples for a day's sightseeing and to connect to my flight home (Naples has lots more flights than Sicily). The ferry is cheap and comfortable and the crew do a good job. I enjoyed sailing out of Palermo and into Naples - an old-fashioned pleasure of travelling slowly and seeing the places take shape. I was fortunate in sharing a four-berth cabin with just one, very pleasant passenger and the cabin, including shower was great. I would happily use the ferry again when travelling in Italy. I would probably not, next time prepay a meal package (although this is probably the cheapest option), as the dinner is self-service and the choice and quality are not great. There are two or three places to eat on board and I would be inclined to make a decision on the day.

  • "trip Civitavecchia-palermo Termini Imerese"

    outbound crossing perfect. The return has been cancelled from the operator due to a technical problem. I could choose to travel 6 hours before, to travel with deck space and not reserved seat or to travel from Palermo to Napoli. Good customer service.

  • "Late arrival, late departure"

    Ship was OK but arrived 2 hours late in Palermo. No effort by the crew to turn the ship around quickly, so by the time we got to Genoa we were almost 3 hours overdue. Missed my ongoing train connection and couldn't even claim for compensation - it has to be 3hrs or over late. 2hrs 45min doesn't count, apparently. By comparison, the Tirennia ferry was bang on time.

  • "Genova to Palermo"

    For a 21 hour trip the restaurants were only open for a tiny proportion of it. So availability of proper food was pretty bad. The food served on boarding the ship was cold, but tasted ok. I would have paid for a waiter served restaurant. The photo shoot on entry to the ship gave the impression it was a cruise ship instead of a ferry. Not amused. Why not stick to the kids when you are doing it. Being forced to listen to overly loud and poor entertainment for the last two hours in the lounge once we had to vacate the cabin was extremely stressful and irritating.
