Trip price

Price the return to Civitavecchia with the correct passenger count and actual vehicle dimensions. Check the total with your chosen cabin and budget separately for onward transport.

Cars, motorcycles and campers

On your return from Sardinia, check the category and dimensions with all luggage included. Prepare what you need on board before vehicle boarding and follow the crew during any intermediate call.

Cabins and overnight rest

Choose accommodation with the overnight crossing and onward driving or travel in Lazio in mind. Match cabin capacity to your party and check availability for the date.

Pets

Arrange pet accommodation when booking from Cagliari. Pet in Cabin is required for cabin access with Grimaldi; selecting a passenger cabin alone is not enough.

Fast check-in and reporting

For Grimaldi fast check-in, show your ticket directly at boarding. For the 20:00 departure, report no later than 18:00 with a vehicle or 19:00 without one. The Via Riva di Ponente GPS reference locates the ticket-office area; use your ticket for the precise approach to the ship.

About the Cagliari to Civitavecchia ferry route

When departing Cagliari, follow the specific boarding location rather than only the ticket-office address. For arrival in Civitavecchia, plan the station transfer or onward drive separately; the ferry does not arrive in Rome itself.
