Valencia >> Menorca ferry
 
Hello wise people!

We're meant to be on Menorca in early-mid September (for 2 wks). Our plan is to drive from our home in Portugal and take the ferry over. It's long and expensive, but we are *really* trying to avoid airports (and we have no time limits).
Does anyone have any intel on the ferries? I can and will look up specific dates, etc. but I'm looking for "Oh, don't take that ferry line, it's the worst" or "definitely do Barcelona ferry not Valencia because..."-type of feedback.

Grateful for any intel you can share.

We took Balearia from Valencia to/from Palma de Mallorca. No problems, fine trip. We had read bad reviews for this company as well as Transmed but all went well.

Thanks so much. We were thinking of stopping at Mallorca for a few days to a) break up the trip, and b) visit a place we love.

I´ve taken the Denia to Ibiza ferry operated by Balearia with no issues.

Trasmediterranea has 1 weekly overnight ferry from Valencia to Menorca and several other overnight ferries up to Palma only.
Balearia has overnight ferries from Valencia to Palma and a afternoon ferry from Denia to Palma (ar 22.15).
Alcudia (Mallorca) - Ciutadela (Menorca) is run by different companies.
I cannot see big differencies between the different companies.

Maribel, would you send me information on how to contact you or your company to book wine tours for 6 days in Rioja in September? I’ve emailed and received no response. Gracias. [email protected]
