@@jaredvega3850 just to reach the ferry takes about 1.5 hrs from Catania and the ferry was roughly 40€ roundtrip. The actual ferry transfer is only 20 minutes
Love your videos, we will be PCSing at the end of the year! Quick question, when you travel with your family do you bring a travel crib/ pack n play for your youngest? Or is that something that is provided by the places you stay?
Hi, Great video as I'm very nervous, needing to drive from Naxos to another AirBnB in Cisternino on May 1st, which is a holiday in Europe and the Ferry's website does not allow you to book a specific ferry reservation. So it looks like we should be ok. Thanks.
We brought a new one that we use for long trips and also bought an island beater for everyday use in Catania. So it depends on how much you plan on driving here. Island beaters are not very reliable
Thank you for your videos! We are PCSing to Sicily in a few months and I am so nervous 😅, but your videos are helping with that😊. The ferry seemed like so much fun!
We’re trying to decide between Sicily and Naples. Would you go to Sicily again if you could choose? Or Naples for the closer travel to other countries?
Thank you, I am just about to go to Scilly from the Netherlands and Ur video was on the spot. Bless you ❤️
Thank you for your kind words. It’s always nice to hear positive feedback
Your videos are so helpful!! Thank you so much!! I have a quick question. How much and how long was the round trip to Italy and back?

Thank you for watching :) Our baby sleeps with us but most hotels offer us a crib.
Thank you very much. It was a very good video. God bless you and your family 🙏🏻
You’re welcome. Thank you for watching!
Great video. What did you enter into your Google Maps to get you to the car ferry terminal in Messina?
I enter my actual destination and it takes me exactly to the Messina ferry first

This is very helpful and my family plans to road trip in Italy soon. I hope its as easy as what we are used to in Southern California
Yes it is and the roads are great 👍

Do you recommend bringing a brand new car there or just buying an island beater?

Yay! You’ll have a great time, after just a little initial culture shock
Hi. Me again. I forgot to ask, what date did you make the trip? Bill
That was Feb 17. Try booking closer to your travel date. But as you can see it was pretty easy to just buy the ticket there
@@5starfamilyadventures Thanks. Bill
Good morning,
How long does it take from the base to the main land with the ferry? thanks
Hi, about 2 hours to be on the other side
Very informative. Thanks
Glad you liked it 👍
Omg I’m coming out to Sicily next year March. I’m so nervous with the adjustment
It’ll take a minute, not gonna lie. But you will fall in love with it 😁
