bluestar ferries

[lynx]

Dear forum users,

I am wanting to use a ferry from Athens to Naxos this summer, but not sure how much is this going to cost. I have been on the bluestarferries.com website to look at the prices and for a 'economy super' it is 10 euros for reservation costs. However, it does not specify if it is going to cost extra when I come to pick it up with the agents. I really need to know how much in total it will cost for me to catch this ferry.

Would appreciate any comments on this.

Warm Regards

As far as I know, Greek ferries have fixed prices.

On www.greekferries.gr, it indicates a Athens-Naxos ferry to be:

ECONOMY CLASS: 27.50 euros
ECONOMY SUPER: 10 euros

I plugged the date July 15 in cause you didn't give us a date. It's wise to book ahead for ferries in July and August because it's the high season then.

If you book online, there's a booking fee which is quite high. I would just go to Greece and buy it a few days prior to the date you're travelling - that is if the weather outlook is good. It's a chance you'll have to take.

Thank you very much for this information Pointofnoreturn. Much appreciated. I did book the ferries through the bluestarferries.com website but I didn't see any fees. It was just 10 euros for the Economy Super and that I had to pick it up from the agent which I picked, in this case the one in Athens. I am hoping that they don't charge a fee for this.

Kind Regards
