Why travel by ferry from Olbia to Genoa?

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with the family, a Olbia to Genoa ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Genoa. Here are 3 reasons why we think a ferry from Olbia to Genoa is an ideal way to travel.

For a caring staff
Tirrenia di Navigazione, Moby Lines or Grandi Navi Veloci staff will be at your disposal from the moment the ship leaves Olbia until it leaves Genoa. You can find an 'information point' on the ship, mostly on the main deck.
It's much less boring than on a plane

During the Olbia Genoa ferry journey with Grandi Navi Veloci, Moby Lines or Tirrenia di Navigazione, there are countless opportunities to enjoy restaurants and bars, or to stroll and sunbathe on a promenade deck... A flight will never provide you with so many services during the trip.
So you don't have to worry about the amount of luggage
One piece of luggage is free, all the others have to be paid for. This is often the formula used when we travel with other modes of transport, which very often leads to a significant increase in the bill. For the Olbia to Genoa crossing, as long as all your luggage is contained in your car, no supplement is required. If you are travelling without a car, then you will be restricted in your movements throughout the journey to Genoa. However, it is advisable to ask the crew of Tirrenia di Navigazione, Moby Lines or Grandi Navi Veloci, as luggage lockers are often provided for passengers to store their luggage during the crossing.
