Our verdict

Ferryhopper books ferry crossings and port transfers in one place, which is what sets it apart from the alternatives listed. It suits island-hoppers planning short trips who want fares in euro and a chat team to sort changes, and it started trading in 2016.

Scored 8.6 / 10 by NomadCue.

Who it suits

  • Travellers crossing between islands who want the ferry and the transfer in one booking
  • Anyone arranging port or airport transfers on the same trip as the crossing
  • Families booking short routes and preferring to handle changes over chat

Who should look elsewhere

  • Long haul trips built around rail or bus, since FlixBus covers bus only and Ferryhopper lists ferry and transfers
  • Travellers who need a free cancellation outside operator terms, since Latam Travellers offers 0 hidden fees, no contracts
  • Anyone after car hire as part of the booking, which Hertz Bahamas WiFi covers with car rental and transfers

The company behind it

Ferryhopper is run by Ferryhopper S.A. and registered in Greece. It was founded in 2016 and built its name around ferry crossings, later adding transfers to its ferry and transfers range. Support is limited to chat and help centre, so questions reach a help centre or a chat rather than a phone desk. Cancellation terms sit with the individual operators, which shapes how flexible a booking really is.

How Ferryhopper compares

Frequently asked questions

Is there a booking fee on top of the fare?+

A booking fee may apply and is shown before payment, so the total is visible at checkout. The amount is listed under booking fees and can vary by route and operator. Factor it into the fare rather than expecting a single all in price.

What happens if I cancel a booking?+

Cancellation depends on the terms set by the operator running each sailing, and a per booking fee applies on top. That means a refund is never automatic, so check the specific route rules before you book. The exact conditions sit in the cancellation terms.

Which products can I book in one go?+

The product range covers ferry and transfers, so a crossing and the transfer that follows it can sit in a single booking. That saves a separate search when landing on an island and needing to reach a port or hotel. Anything outside those two categories needs another site.

Is there an app for planning and changing trips?+

Yes, there is a mobile app for searching routes and managing bookings on the move. It is useful on a ferry or at a port where connection is patchy and desktop booking is not practical. Keep a confirmation handy as a backup.

How do I reach support if a sailing is disrupted?+

Support runs on chat and help centre, which means a help centre for written questions and chat for quicker replies. There is no phone line listed, so a same day disruption may take a few exchanges. Changing a booking is a good reason to open a chat early.

Who is behind Ferryhopper?+

The company is Ferryhopper S.A., registered in Greece and founded in 2016. It sells ferry tickets directly to travellers rather than acting as an agent for other operators, which is why operator terms still govern cancellations.

Can I book transfers without a ferry ticket?+

Transfers are part of ferry and transfers, so they can be booked on their own as well as alongside a crossing. That helps if you arrive by plane and need a port transfer, or need to reach an island terminal after a flight. Availability follows the operators Ferryhopper works with.

How does it compare with alternatives for fee transparency?+

Latam Travellers states 0 hidden fees, no contracts, while Ferryhopper lists Booking fee may apply, shown pre-payment that may apply. FlixBus covers bus and Hertz Bahamas WiFi covers car rental and transfers, so neither is a like for like ferry comparison.
