    It was one of the most straightforward sailing to and from Dover. From the check in to the end of the journey, it was trouble and stress free. The ship was clean and well equipped and we had a comfortable journey. Thank you !

  • "First time"

    This was our first time travelling by ferry so we were a little anxious on what to expect. Once you’re out of the harbour you don’t realise the time, it’s literally plain sailing.  We would definitely use again, even though the fish smelt so nice my hubby wasn’t a fan, other than that great. All staff were polite and friendly.

  • "Recent ferry crossing"

    We had a positive experience with DFDS. The check in staff in the UK were very friendly and attentive. The outbound ship was quiet and disembarking was efficient. It was great to be able to return on an earlier crossing than we had boked too.

  • "Stress-free travelling "

    We travelled from Dover to Dunkirk, and the ferry journey was an enjoyable break in our journey where we could relax and enjoy some family time. The ferry was recently refurbished with thoughtful design so the lounge and restaurant were comfortable, calm and stylish. The staff were also friendly and helpful.

  • "Dunquerk Dover Dunquerk"

    DFDS has a very flexible approach to passenger arrivals. I was too late arriving for both journies because I miscalculated the time required to fight my way through roadworks on both sides of the Channel.This flexibility avoids the necessity for drivers to undertake a dangerous driving style in order to catch the ferry. I live in Germany and using the Dunquerk crossing instead of Calais saves me almost 100Km
