hips and crews
Compared with other cross-Channel services, Transeuropa's ships are a relatively old generation and offer an alternative to the better-known
Dover (UK) toCalais (France ) ferries. Habitually operated byEastern Europe an crews (oftenSlovenia n andCroatia n) the service is personal due to the high crew-to-passenger ratio; both the transport itself and the catering on board are considerably cheaper than on most other cross-Channel ferries. Crossings typically take four to five hours.The company operates a direct sales channel, declining to sell through travel agents.
