About the Bari – Igoumenitsa crossing
Igoumenitsa is the mainland end of Ventouris' Ionian service and the busiest of its Greek calls. Most sailings reach it by way of Corfu, leaving Bari at 20:00; some Sundays there is a direct 10:00 daytime departure that skips the island altogether, plus a 23:59 sailing on some Saturdays.
The service runs from early July to the first week of September and then stops for the year. Ventouris posts a dated calendar rather than a weekly grid, and marks each departure with the ship covering it — Rigel II, III, V or VII.
Arrival times are not published on the Greek routes, only departures. Greece is an hour ahead of Italy, so the clock adds an hour that the sea does not. Deck passage is €47 low season, €57 mid, €77 high; a seat €57–87; a car €57–102. Igoumenitsa is the gateway to Epirus and the road east to Ioannina and Meteora.
