Palermo to Cagliari with Tirrenia di Navigazione
The ticket office at the port was very hard to find. No waiting area for foot passengers except new single storey building behind old port station and that was so hot as to be quite unusable even in May. Everywhere totally deserted, no facilities except independent cafe and passengers just hanging about on side of road. Little info hut didn't have any info! Set dinner menu on board had no choices and primitive and secondi patti had same sauce. Staff OK on boat, not over helpful.
Napoli to Palermo with Tirrenia di Navigazione
Really had a good time, restful relaxation, interesting to watch the dock and boat crew to prepare for departure and do all the assorted tasks done on the front crew reek, I have to say, though, the food in the self service dining room was not very good, and each entree available was hardly warm!!
Trapani to Cagliari with Tirrenia di Navigazione
Overall the boat trip was good value & an interesting mode of travel from Sicily to Sardinia. The boarding location in Trepani was somewhat inconvenient being around the harbour from hotels. The young lady handling check-in at the office was very helpful & friendly. She arranged share taxi for few of us from office to the boarding berth. She also arranged for optimal cabin for me on the boat. I had shower in my cabin followed by comfortable sleep on the night crossing. Although it would have been nice to leave Sicily in the daylight rather than around midnight , this was counterbalanced by the wonderful sight of Cagliari in beautiful morning sunlight. The docking location is very convenient in central Cagliari. Thus I had only short walk to my hotel. Grazie for the memorable trip !
