These are the sailings we recorded on this route from October 2025 to September 2026. They show what ran then, not a forecast: timetables change from year to year.
Igoumenitsa to Venice is the longest of the Greece to Italy crossings, run by the Anek-Superfast joint venture and taking around twenty-four and a half hours. That makes it a genuine overnight voyage up the length of the Adriatic, and cabins are the sensible choice rather than an optional extra. Fares start around €138, and the ships carry vehicles throughout.
The approach into Venice is a good deal more interesting than the average ferry arrival, with the ship coming in across the lagoon. Ferries dock at the Stazione Marittima area or nearby Tronchetto, west of the historic centre, from where public transport and the vaporetto network take you towards St Mark's Square, the Grand Canal and the Rialto.
Sailings are infrequent, running about once a week, so this is a route to book well ahead rather than leave to chance. The current timetable and fares are shown below. If the dates do not suit, Ancona and Bari are served far more often from the Greek Adriatic ports and both have onward rail links to Venice.

Hiring a car
Is it worth renting a car in Igoumenitsa?
Igoumenitsa is mostly a transit port for Corfu and Italy ferries, and car rental agencies cluster right around the harbour, often cheaper than picking one up on Corfu itself. If you're heading into Epirus, to Ioannina or Zagori's stone villages, a car is essential since public transport there is thin; for a straight crossing to Corfu, many go on foot and rent on arrival instead.

Tips for the Igoumenitsa to Venice ferry
- Igoumenitsa has two separate terminals: the domestic terminal in the northern port serves Corfu and Paxos ferries, while the international terminal to the south handles Italy-bound ships. Follow signs carefully so you do not queue at the wrong one.
- If you are taking a car on the Corfu shuttle, join the vehicle queue at least 30 minutes before departure – the driver stays with the car but other passengers must get out and board separately.
- You can buy tickets for the Corfu crossing on the day from agencies at the port, such as Milano Travel and Euroline Shipping, near the domestic terminal – with 20+ daily departures there is usually no need to book ahead.
- Never put valuables (passport, wallet, phone, camera, medication) in your main luggage – keep them in your day bag on your person at all times.
- Shower facilities are available in some cabin classes and in communal bathrooms on large overnight ferries – useful after a very long crossing.
