BEWARE IF THERE IS A PROBLEM, they will give awful resolution.

Due to a fuel supply strike in Southern Italy, our ferry rides from Sorrento Positano were put in question. The website for the ferry company said. Ferry was canceled. I tried to book a different ferry through the “change trip” section on app, and FERRYHOPPER WOULD NOT confirm tickets on the substitute ferry!!! I chatted with them and they wouldn’t confirm it. So we decided to take a land trip instead at the last minute. After chatting with them for 45 minutes, agreed to give us all of our money back. Then guess what we get an email and they want to have us explain all over again what happened? My advice going forward, is use Ferryhopper as a resource for which ferries are going to work, then book directly with the ferry company. This is the worst customer service I’ve ever seen.

UPDATE 28/OCT/2026 Ferryhopper replied here and said they were going to give a refund…but they didn’t ask for any information regarding my order. TOTAL LIP SERVICE!!!

Response from developer

Hello, We are genuinely sorry for the extreme stress and frustration you experienced while trying to rearrange your travel during the fuel supply strike in Southern Italy. Disrupted plans, especially on tight holiday schedules, are exhausting to deal with. During widespread disruptions such as strikes, ferry companies might freeze or alter their booking systems in real time. Because seat inventory is controlled entirely by the ferry operators, our platform cannot confirm tickets on a substitute crossing if the operator has closed sales or restricted seat availability on that departure. Regarding the follow-up email, we completely understand how infuriating it feels to be asked for details again after spending 45 minutes on chat. While our team was in agreement regarding your full refund, formal cancellation procedures during irregular events often require an official paper trail and operator authorization to release the funds. However, asking you to repeat the situation instead of referencing the existing chat history was an internal oversight on our part, and we sincerely apologize for the unnecessary hassle. Rest assured that your full refund remains our priority. Best regards, The Ferryhopper Team

Très pratique !

Très pratique pour réserver, mêmes prix qu’en agence sur place, un ferry a été annulé et grâce à l’appli j’ai pu être remboursée en un clic ! Sans ça, j’aurais dû faire une réclamation par mail. Je conseille !

Nous attendons les dates et heures des ferry du dodecanese pour continuer notre aventure

Très contente de Ferryhopper, par contre nous aimerions avoir vite les horaires pour le dodecanese

Response from developer

Vous pouvez aussi activer des alertes ou vérifier régulièrement, car de nouveaux itinéraires s’ajoutent au fil des annonces. Merci, L’équipe Ferryhopper

Response from developer

Hello, Thanks for the great rating! Awesome to hear the app’s making things easier for you — especially those repeat bookings and updates. Warm regards, The Ferryhopper Team

Absolutely unreliable and horrible service

They will sell you insurance and then refused to change your flight. We were forced to pay for an additional ferry ticket and now have to fight for a refund for the insurance and the ferry.

Arnaque ! J’ai perdu 57 euros le service client est zéro

J’ai acheté 4 billets pour une traversée bateau en Indonésie. J’ai payé 57e. Je me suis présenté au guichet sur le port comme indiqué et l’agence n’a jamais retrouvé mes billets sur leurs listes. J’ai fait tout les guichets du port, rien. J’ai appelé le service client, aucun remboursement. J’ai du racheter des billets sur place. A fuir

Épilogue : j’ai finalement été remboursé donc c’est long mais ils ont été honnête il faut le reconnaître aussi

Response from developer

Bonjour, Nous sommes sincèrement désolés pour cette situation extrêmement stressante lors de votre embarquement en Indonésie. Dans notre système, votre réservation apparaît pourtant comme correctement confirmée et validée. Comme nos équipes vous l'ont déjà indiqué, nous sommes actuellement en contact étroit avec la compagnie maritime afin de comprendre ce qui s'est passé au guichet et déterminer l'origine de cette erreur. Soyez assuré(e) que nous suivons ce dossier de très près. Dès que la compagnie aura clarifié la situation, notre service client reviendra immédiatement vers vous concernant votre remboursement. Merci pour votre patience, L'équipe Ferryhopper

Aucun support

Après annulation du trajet en bateau silence de Ferryhopper. Jamais personne ne nous a répondu malgré 3 contacts. On attends toujours une solution de leur part.

Poor customer service

If your ferry gets cancelled there is NO customer service. No one answers the phone it just hangs up. No notification. Nothing good luck to you

Ferryhopper App

Perfect app, you can do everything here using only one platform! The Ferryhopper team helped me just using the chat menu to cancel a trip that the shipping company couldn’t do, return the whole amount in my bank account and book a new ship at the time that my trip was going to be cancelled! Thanks a lot! ♥️

Awesome

Very simple and immediate

App directed me to the wrong ferry terminal.

Bought tickets for 2 people and a car. In the app it clearly states “departure port only has one terminal - View on Map”. This directed us to the wrong end of the port where this ferry doesn’t even leave from. We had to figure it out our selves the actual
Port
Was nearly 2 miles away

Response from developer

Hi, Thank you for your rating. I’m sorry to hear about the confusion you experienced with the port directions. We take feedback like this seriously, and we want to look into the map information you saw so we can help prevent a repeat. The port and terminal details in our app are provided by the ferry companies, and sometimes local signage or layouts can cause mismatches. If you can share your booking details and the specific route and time through chat, we’ll investigate the listing and update any guidance as needed. Kind regards, The Ferryhopper Team

Super übersichtlich

Bin begeistert, kurz, klar und deutlich.

Hallo, Vielen Dank für die tolle Bewertung! Schön, dass dir unsere klare und kurze Kommunikation zugesagt hat. Beste Grüße, Das Ferryhopper Team

Incredibly frustrating user experience

Ferryhopper’s website has one of the most frustrating booking interfaces I’ve dealt with.

We spent an absurd amount of time simply trying to figure out how to change the age of a passenger. On the web version, this crucial setting is buried inside a dropdown menu that is incredibly easy to miss. If passenger age is important enough to affect the ticket and booking process, WHY would you hide it in an obscure dropdown instead of making it immediately visible and obvious?

This is basic UI/UX design. Important information should be easy to find, not turned into a scavenger hunt.

The worst part is that I actually missed out on buying a ticket yesterday because of this ridiculous interface. By the time we finally figured out where the age setting was hidden, it was too late.

The UI needs a complete overhaul. A ferry-booking service should make purchasing a ticket quick and straightforward, especially when people are dealing with schedules and limited availability. Instead, Ferryhopper managed to turn something as simple as changing a passenger’s age into an incredibly frustrating waste of time.

Schlechtester Service bei Umbuchungen.

Kein Support, keine Anpassung, Erstattung nicht möglich. Direkt beim Fährenanbieter buchen.
