Amenities for people with disabilities

Consorzio Vidali Group ferries are tourist passenger vessels and medium-sized motorboats, which unfortunately makes them less suitable for passengers with reduced mobility. The vessels may have architectural barriers (such as steps leading to the decks or narrow indoor lounges) that can make it difficult to move around independently on board.

However, the crew is available to assist passengers during boarding and disembarkation, within the limitations of the vessel's layout.
