To reach Messina<\/a> by car, instead of embarking at Villa San Giovanni in Calabria to cross by sea only the Strait, it is worthwhile, both in terms of expenditure of physical driving energy and economically, to take the ferry from Salerno for those coming from a good part of Lazio, Campania but also from Abruzzo, Molise and the upper parts of Puglia and Basilicata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether one wants to head right to the metropolitan city of Messina<\/strong> (the territory of the capital city alone presents phenomenal sights, which make us understand why it is worth visiting Messina<\/a>), or to reach certain, contiguous areas of the Island of Sicily<\/strong>, it is worth seriously considering the ferry connections available on the Salerno – Messina<\/a> route to embark with vehicle in tow. Calculating time and cost, we have an objective result: it is better to move by sea, saving money and getting carried away, even if it takes a few hours longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The all-inclusive price of the Salerno \u2013 Messina ferry <\/strong>for two people in bridge post with car is \u20ac 71<\/strong> and the duration of the journey is 9 hours<\/strong>. Setting out to sea from Salerno onwards, without stress, letting the ship guide us, proves to be an excellent choice. Furthermore, bars, restaurants and TVs are available on board. By booking the double cabin, you spend around 40 euros more, but it is an advisable option for the return, when the crossing is made at night. Costs may vary depending on the period of the season and the dates chosen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As regards the all-road route, by car driving mostly on the A2 motorway, you have to travel about 450 kilometers and embark on the ferry at Villa San Giovanni to cross the Strait, spending a total of \u20ac 85<\/strong> and taking almost 5 hours<\/strong> overall. Approximately, in fact, around \u20ac 50 of petrol is needed for a small car with current fuel costs (which can also vary), and \u20ac 35 is \u200b\u200bthe price of the ferry ticket for vehicle and passengers. A travel solution suitable for those who love to drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
