Tunisia ferry Ferry companies, schedules and fares

Tunisia is a country in North Africa, bordering the Mediterranean Sea and just a few miles from the Sicilian coast. The Tunisia ferry allows travellers to reach their destination in comfort and allows them to take their own vehicle, which is ideal for those who wish to stay longer and explore the area in comfort. Thanks to its strategic location, Tunisia is easily accessible by sea from Italy and France. Major shipping companies ensure year-round connections between the three destinations. The port of Tunis, located in the Tunisian capital of the same name, faces the Mediterranean. For centuries it has been the country's main commercial centre and one of the busiest ports in the Mediterranean. Located in La Goulette, about 10km from the city centre, it has regular passenger and cargo ferry services.

🐾 Pets
Pets are welcome on all ferries to Tunisia. While Grimaldi Lines and GNV also offer the option of booking pet-friendly cabins, allowing passengers to travel in the company of their four-legged friends, the other companies only offer accommodation in kennels on board. Due to the size of the ships and the length of the voyage, there are designated areas for pets. It is important to ensure that you have everything you need to make the journey comfortable for your pet: a lead, muzzle or carrier for smaller animals and plenty of food. As for the pet fee, some companies allow you to pay directly at the port during check-in. It is always essential to declare the presence of your pet at the time of booking.
