It takes about 3 minutes to cross the Channel by ferry.

It doesn't look like a ferry, but it works. Fast, coordinated. Use it without prejudice. The big disadvantage is very narrow and in some places bad asphalt from the direction of the border. €5.

We were a little afraid of this form of transport because we avoided it, but it is certainly something that can only be seen in a few other places.

Little transparency in presenting the price of the service. There is no sign, there is no receipt, the request is in Euros after they make you get in, blocking you with another car behind you. They do not know a minimum of rules in respect of consumers. They look you in the face and charge the price which is generally 5 euros. For the rest, fantastic experience, worth 6 stars.

I passed the water on a floating cable thing. Passing is fast and smooth. He's a guy who guides you how to get in the car and he charges you. I did not even feel when it started, so it was so easy. It's okay to get around here, because the road is shorter to Ksamil. First we made 42 km on a multi-curve road through Sarande to get to Ksamil, and the second time we decided to ride this raft over the water because it was 23 km. The fee is different. There is a price table for cars on a shore. Locals pay 200 leks, tourists 700 lek / small car = 5 euro, on the board the price is 4 euro. It is only paid for the car. Passing takes 3-5 minutes. The road here to the customs has a worse portion, but it can go well. However the roads from them are all disaster compared to those in Greece.

It's hard to call it a ferry crossing, but it's impressive! It looks like it's about to fall apart, but it's still flowing. The first time I'm afraid to drive the car, but it's ok. Gentlemen don't give change, so it's better to pay what you owe :)

An interesting historical means of transport, which will probably not operate for a long time in its current condition.

If you are around here you have to take this ferry. It looks a bit adventurous, but has been doing its job for a long time and if so many vehicles have made it before me, why shouldn't you make it this time. Caution is advised at night. The navigation system is currently telling you and there is no warning, no boat, nothing. Suddenly the street is out. It may even look as if a car is driving in front of you, but it is on the ferry and is being pulled, with a few meters of water in between.

5 euros for almost 30 meters or 2 minutes drive is already a rip off.

Exceptionally unfriendly person operating the ferry, in case you can’t pay him the 10 euro he requests (for approx 150 meters of distance) he insists on 1400 lek which is definitely not the official exchange rate, I have to say I felt hustled, skip it if you can

Old ferry. Walk regularly. Car travel costs 4-5 euros.

Thanks to this ferry, the crossing is made in 2 -3 mns. The rate on the other hand is made at the head of the customer, and is exponential when you are a tourist. The locals are not ransomed....
