I took a 25-hour ferry from Europe to Africa along the Mediterranean. My trip on the massive ship felt like a nice cruise.
Briefly

The ferry from Genoa to the destination turned out to be more cost-effective compared to flights, with a round-trip ferry journey costing slightly less but offering lower carbon emissions, making it an environmentally friendly choice for travel.
Booking was easy through Ferryhopper, costing 137 euros for a bed in a four-person all-women cabin. The check-in process was notably simple, without the usual extensive security measures seen at airports.
The ferry itself resembled a cruise ship, featuring amenities such as a restaurant, cafeteria, coffee shop, and even a pool, although it wasn’t filled with water at the time.
Overall, I found the experience aboard the ferry to be more relaxed and enjoyable than I had anticipated, blending travel comforts typically associated with cruise experiences.
