It can be very convenient, especially for those traveling with a vehicle, to embark from one of these port cities rather than driving to Villa San Giovanni, in Calabria, for the crossing of the Strait of Messina, and then continuing, still by car, up to to the capital of Sicily. And even pedestrians can find it easier to make the journey with a long-distance ferry, which represents a valid alternative to train and plane, especially if it is a matter of arriving in the Palermo area, which is well served by sea transport. So let&#8217;s see what the specific routes are, the <strong>duration of the navigation<\/strong>, the <strong>prices<\/strong> and other information.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Porto_di_Palermo-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Porto_di_Palermo-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Porto_di_Palermo-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Porto_di_Palermo-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Porto_di_Palermo-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Porto_di_Palermo.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong><em>Port of Palermo<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ferries from Livorno<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/en\/tratte\/livorno-palermo\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.traghettiup.com\/en\/tratte\/livorno-palermo\">Livorno \u2013 Palermo<\/a> route is covered three times a week in <strong>about twenty hours<\/strong>, with departure in the late afternoon.
