  • "P & 0 was good, directferries not so good"

    I booked my trip through direct ferries which I have done on several previous occasions. However this time I experienced a number of problems with direct ferries. It is extremely annoying that you cannot contact them at all easily. For a couple of problems I had to contact the ferry companies I was travelling with directly, which makes me realise I should have booked with them in the first place. For my outward journey I travelled with P&O ferries.They were easily contactable and helped me with one of the issues I had. When we arrived at Dover they were helpful too and I was pleased with the whole check in process. The journey was good but given it was a morning crossing it was really sad that there was no cooked breakfast option as there used to be, but that is my only criticism of them. Everything else was fine.

  • "English Channel crossing"

    We traveled with P&O vessel and had good experience. We will certainly use them next time we are going to visit Europe. From checking in Calais to off boarding in Dover everything was perfect. Thank you

  • "Extortion "

    Charged me 60 pounds for turning up early on a ferry that was clearly not full....and the bar staff were understaffed and overworked and were ignorant.....rude

  • "Expensive but the best value on this route."

    The ticket was 2x more than I used to pay pre Covid. The boat was empty (169 passengers, out of a capacity of 2,000 people according to Wikipedia. The ticket cost a lot more than a few years ago - maybe if the price was lower more people would travel, or maybe post Brexit there are just fewer passengers but the same number of ships. A breakfast box (bacon sandwich and a hash brown) was £10, and a chicken sandwich in sliced bread was £4.50.  I saw no one eat on the boat either going or coming back, but I guess someone must of.   If the prices were lower then they would sell a lot more. The passengers prepared to pay these prices have probably paid extra and used the Tunnel anyway.

  • "Only one complaint"

    Service is great abd extremely efficient. We travelled as foot passengers both ways. Our only complaint is that the booking tells us we must check in a minimum of 90 minutes before sailing so there is a long wait for boarding as you watch loads of other people walk up who only arrive less than one hour before.

  • "Brilliant for dogs"

    Went from dover to calais, to my pet dog and I got told there was pet lounge where I can take my dog on board. I can say it was brilliant having our dog next to us. It has a charge of £6 per person plus £6 for the dog. But I can say it was money well spent, and also included free refreshments and treats for the dog. Even had a space where the dog can roam off the leash. I can just say perfect.

  • "Correct organisation and handling of our boattrip to Dover and back"

    Despite the long waitingline at customs before departure in Calais, that made us miss our boat, we could embark easily on the next boat. At our return, we were too late due to traffic jam, but we could still embark in the latest minutes, thanks to a very fluent customs control.
