thank you for this video, in a few days i'm doing this same trip for the very first time.. the booking agency gave me a different adress for the tickets, but on google maps it seems to be a small office a few streets away from the port. i'm hoping its the blue building after all :)
Hope it all goes well for you! The reason we did the video in the first place was because of all of the conflicting information. I can't imagine them changing everything with regard to ticket offices, mainly because the large blue building was set up specifically for dealing with ferry passengers and there were quite a few ferry companies operating out of that particular building. Enjoy your travels!
Thank you for posting. I found it really helpful as I like to see the journey from the cab....puts my mind at rest. I don't suppose you have completed the Tunis to Italy route? Or Greece to Turkey?
Hi there. Again, apologies for the slow reply, comments weren't flagged up. We're glad you found it useful, we did a lot of research beforehand and were getting a tad concerned because most people seemed to have all sorts of problems both getting to, and at, the port. We found the whole thing very stress free, which was a bonus, especially after the Italian roads! We've not done Tunis to Italy, or Greece to Turkey. There are a couple of RUclipsrs (The MotorRoamers, AKA Karen and Miles) who have been full timing for a number of years, they've pushed out some useful blogs, vlogs and ebooks of their adventures so you might find something in their channel.
Apologies for the slow reply, for some reason the comments haven't been flagged up. Accommodation on the ferry was ideal because we slept in our motorhome! That's the whole premis of camping on board, you stay in your own camper/motorhome so don't have to pay for a cabin. You still have access to the ship's restaurants, toilets etc but have the advantage of being able to go back to familiar surroundings. Hope this helps.
Thank you!
You're welcome!

thanks for this...how was the accommodation on the ferry and the trip itself??
