Minoan Lines, a leading shipping company in Greece, was founded in 1972. Timetables include trips from Heraklion (the biggest ferry) the biggest city in Crete to Piraeus (the biggest ferry Greece) the biggest city in Greece and all the destinations in Greece and Italy. Especially in Italy, Minoan Lines is the biggest Greek company which deals with Italian Destinations. The shipping company comes first in trips from Greece to Italy every year.
So, we urge you to travel with the 'Passenger Line of the Year. Minoan Lines was awarded the prize "Passenger line of the year 2005" by Lloyd's List during the Greek Shipping Awards 2005. That is why Minoan Lines has increased its sales at core services to Italy and Crete, and also owns one-third of the affiliated company Hellenic Seaways. That's why we insist on choosing the best. Minoan is the leading (ferry Greece) Greek shipping company.
You will find Minoan Lines agencies and offices all over Crete, Piraeus and the rest of Greece. Minoan Lines has a great economic background and an even greater history. The company was established in 1972 at Heraklion Crete. During 1985, having established its position in the shipping market, Minoan Lines decides to renew its fleet. This starts with the replacement of F/B Minos by F/B Festos. During 1986 the company decides to expand its activities: it deploys Ro-Ro Agia Galini on the Heraklion - Piraeus route (the biggest ferry Greece) the biggest city in Crete for the safe and secure transport of long vehicles, trucks, and tank-tracks carrying all kinds of load and by the end of 1987 one more vessel is added to the Patras-Ancona route. In response to the increasing demands for this particular service, Minoan Lines deploys the modern, within the European standards, F/B Fedra on the Patras-Ancona route. Except for ferry Greece, Minoan Lines also deploys a third vessel in 1988, F/B King Minos, on the Patras-Ancona route. With this vessel the company sharpens competition and claims the top position in the market. By mid 1990's Minoan Lines takes one more step further: the F/B Ariadne is deployed on the Greece-Italy-Turkey route, thus joining the coast of Ionia with Greece and Europe. By deploying F/B Kazantzakis on the Heraklion-Piraeus route, Minoan Lines establishes the quality standards for this service.
Apart from ferry Greece, Minoan Lines has also scheduled trips to Italy. If you want to travel from Italy to Greece (and vice versa) Minoan Lines should be your very first thought. Travel by ferry to Greece and the Greek islands or from Italy to Greece and the Greek islands with Minoan Lines. All international ferry routes and schedules between Greece and the Greek islands for 2007 are offered. Use our ferry services to visit Greece and Italy.
Travelling with Minoan Lines is rather a magnificent experience than an ordinary trip. Take advantage of the leading ferry Greece shipping company and travel safe, cheap and secure to all available destinations.
