Ancona Zadar Ferry reviews

  • "Trip to Croatia"

    The return trip from Zadar with Jadrolinjia was excellent. The ferry was clean and on time, on both departure and arrival in Ancona. The only flaw is that from the old to the new port just outside Zadar there are no directions; it's not very convenient for foot passengers.

  • "From Zara ti Ancona"

    Everything went very well, clean ship, clean toilets, kind crew, the ship was not too full. The only bad thing was the freezing air conditioner, perhaps 18° was too much. Good punctuality.

    Excellent experience. Had a mix-up initially regarding a berth (my mistake) but it was resolved quickly and to my great satisfaction. Would certainly use your line again if given the opportunity.
