On 9th July, Adria Ferries started a new route between Italy and Montenegro, a Balkan country rapidly developing in terms of hotel accommodation and tourist services.
The ferry connection between Ancona and Bar now offers departures from both ports on a bi-weekly basis.
This was the result of a strong synergy developed over the past few months between the Government of Montenegro, the Italian Embassy in Montenegro, and Adria Ferries.
The ropax ‘AF Mia’, which joined Adria Ferries’ fleet in December, 2023, is operating on the route.
This ship can accommodate more than 1,500 pax and has around 200 cabins, each equipped with a WC and shower. Among these, are 14 suites with king size beds, 12 of which are located on the upper deck and were completely renovated in May this year.
‘AF Mia’ also features a reclining seat lounge and spacious common areas that help ensure a comfortable journey for all types of passengers.
There are also cabins specifically designed for those travelling with pets, and cabins equipped for the transport of persons with reduced mobility (PRM).
She is also fitted with a duty-free shop and an area dedicated to children; four bars, including one outdoor bar that also offers freshly prepared pizzas, kebabs, and salads, and one specialising in cocktails and premium beverages.
In addition, there are two restaurants for passengers including a self-service restaurant with about 300 seats and an à la carte restaurant characterised by a sophisticated atmosphere serving Italian and international cuisine prepared by the on-board chef.
