The company

CTN

CTN, the Compagnie Tunisienne de Navigation, is Tunisia’s national shipping company. It links Tunis with Marseille and Genoa on large cruise ferries that carry foot passengers as well as cars and motorhomes.

The fleet includes the Carthage and the Tanit, two large ships with open vehicle decks, carrying from 2,200 to 3,200 passengers and up to 1,000 vehicles. Crossings take 20 to 30 hours, with a night on board, and frequencies vary with the seasons.

The ships accept foot passengers, cars, motorhomes and motorbikes, and pets are allowed. Timetables change from one season to the next: the search engine shows the dates open.
