Search cruisesHow to find a better cruise or ferry price
Ferry and cruise prices change with the season, the day of the week and the type of seat or cabin. Comparing Ferryscanner and Tripadvisor side by side shows you the options before you book, and Destination.chat sends you straight to the provider at its normal price.
Look at the total, not the starting price. For ferries, vehicle space, cabins and seat type change the cost. For cruises, port fees, gratuities, drinks packages and shore excursions can add up, so read the terms on the final booking page.
Book early for summer island routes and peak cruise dates, when ferries and cabins sell out. Travelling midweek or in the shoulder months can bring the same trip down noticeably.
Cruise & Ferry FAQ
Where can I find the cheapest ferry tickets?
Compare before you book. Several ferry companies often sail the same route at different prices and times. Ferryscanner shows them side by side, so you can pick the best fare for your dates.
Do I book on Destination.chat or with the provider?
With the provider. You choose an offer here and book on the provider's own website. The booking, payment, changes and refunds are handled by that company.
Does it cost more to book through Destination.chat?
No. You pay the provider's normal price. Some links are affiliate links, so we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
When should I book a ferry?
Early for summer. On busy island routes in July and August, and when you need space for a car or a cabin, booking a few weeks ahead gives more choice. Outside the peak season you can often book closer to the date.
What is not included in a cruise price?
Often some extras. Depending on the cruise line, port fees, gratuities, drinks, Wi-Fi and shore excursions may cost extra. Check what is included before you book.
Can I take my car on a ferry?
On many routes, yes. Most larger ferries carry cars, motorbikes and campervans. Add your vehicle when you search, as the price depends on its size.
