Schedule of the catamaran from Piran with bus transfers from Ankaran

The catamaran ferry departs to Venice from Piran in Slovenia, but we offer free bus transfers from Ankaran to Piran for all our passengers. Considering that Ankaran and Piran are not far away, we go an extra mile so you do not have to. Our bus will pick you up at the reception of the Hotel Adria and bring you to Piran just in time for the departure of the catamaran. The bus is free of charge for guests traveling on a one day excursion from Ankaran to Venice and for one way passengers sailing on the route Venice – Ankaran and Ankaran – Venice, making it easy and comfortable.
