Please note that coaches call at several pick-up points en route to the port and a minimum number of passengers is required at each pick-up point for this service to operate. In the unlikely event that this number is not achieved, alternative arrangements will be offered. Please be aware that due to the distance of some of our pick-up points from the port of departure, a very early start may be necessary. We will advise you of the exact pick-up location when we send you your travel documents. Please be aware that pick-up points may not be in the centre of the specified town or city. Making sure that you have a comfortable journey is a priority, which is why we use modern coaches, manned by experienced drivers.
