"Good flexible return service"

The best thing we have found with Minoan Lines over the years is their efficiency and helpfulness over changing return dates. No fuss they just do it . This is real peace of mind.

"A very pleasant crossing. Staff were friendly and helpful"

We enjoyed the journey with no problems. The staff were pleasant. The food was adequate but a little expensive. We were required to leave our cabin rather prematurely we thought and then had a long wait for disembarkation.

"Our trip made special "

We traveled with our dog and the trip was superb. There was no waiting about in the car, we drove on the ship parked and went to our cabin. Amazing.

"car holiday"

Ok, good standard, much better than last time we travelled, we then went with another ferry operator and it was not good. I can recommend Minoan Lines and will travel with them again.

"Patras-Ancona"

The journey went well. The only problem was a really rude member of the staff that was supposed to help you find your cabin. Reserved seats cost a lot and are really uncomfortable. Do not book them!!! Better bring with you an air maittress and sleep on the floor.

"holidays trip"

We travelled with this line the 17th/7 (outbound) and the 30th/7 (return), the ship is really nice and with good services but I must say that I don't find right that people who only booked desk space were all over the first class (where I booked a 1° class seats) like homeless, using seats that they don't even paid for. I hope that you are going to do somenthing about it because at this point is better to do not pay the reserved seat ticket!!!

"Our crossing from Ancona to Igoumenitsa with Minoan Lines"

I gladly write this review, because the trip was a really good one. Punctual from the beginning to the end, nice and friendly staff, clean. We were really lucky, nice crossing started in Greece and the return looked like beeing in a cruise. Goodbye

"Stuck inside the garage"

5 hours delay from Trieste to Igoumenitsa, an hour Igoumenitsa to Ancona. We waited three hours in the garage with all the exhaust gas of cars. Apart from that all good.

"Ancona Igoumenitsa and return"

The ship left the Igoumenitsa with 1 houre delay, and depsite the really quiet sea we arrived to Ancona with more than 2 hours delay. To be improve the landing procedure, you have to spend 30 minutes inside the garage with stupid people who turn on the motor to go nowhere. Really expansive self service, €3.20 for a coffee at the bar; on the return we brought our food and water. I recommend the ship but you have to be aware of these things.

"Good trip"

Really nice trip, but in the morning the bar opened and woke me up. I don't understand why you have to close the bar from 3 to 5 with all the couches available around the area. Perhaps is better to book a cabin. The toilets were quiet good.

"Excellent Journey"

The only down side of our trip was the offloading at Ancona. We were sat in the car for over an hour before we were allowed to to drive off! The ship Europa was very modern, clean and the onboard shops were relatively cheap. The food was okay and portion size was large.

"Ferry Crossing Ancona Iguamanitsu"

The boarding was trouble free and as our two dogs were travelling with us the transfer to our pet friendly cabin was faultless. Sadly being an internal cabin it was a little claustrophobic but because the ferry was not overcrowded we were able to walk the dogs on deck. Once at sea we were able to take advantage of the bars and restaurants plus walk the dogs on deg, This followed the same pattern for the next 17 hours. Crossing overnight the journey was uneventful and whilst the cabin became a little stuffy the journey was quite comfortable with friendly crew and staff. Will definitely plan on using this service again in the future
