Journey Overview
Boarding a cruise from Ravenna? A pre-booked car from Hotel Metropolitan to Ravenna Cruise Port keeps embarkation day simple: an on-time pickup, a direct road transfer of ~72–82 min (~76 km), and luggage handled throughout.
The route runs via the A14 Adriatica motorway between Bologna and Ravenna, a straightforward road transfer with no train changes or shared-shuttle waiting. Every journey includes an on-time pickup, luggage assistance, a professional English-speaking driver and a fixed, all-inclusive fare.
Beyond Bologna's outer ring road, the route joins the A14 Adriatica motorway branch running east through the flat Emilia-Romagna countryside to the Adriatic coast. Most of the 72–82 min journey is spent on the motorway, with the final few minutes threading through Ravenna towards the port.
Good to know: flying into Bologna Marconi Airport before your cruise? We can also arrange a direct airport transfer to Hotel Metropolitan the day before, so you arrive relaxed ahead of your Ravenna departure.
Why Choose Our Private Transfer

About Hotel Metropolitan
Hotel Metropolitan is a contemporary boutique hotel tucked just off Via dell'Indipendenza, with a small rooftop garden that is unusual for the historic centre. Its clean, modern interiors sit within easy walking distance of both the station and Piazza Maggiore.
A rooftop terrace offers a quiet garden break above the busy Indipendenza shopping street. It is especially well suited to travellers wanting a modern boutique base midway between the station and Piazza Maggiore.
About Ravenna Cruise Port
Ravenna's cruise terminal lies along the Candiano Canal at the Porto di Ravenna, a working port a few kilometres from the historic centre and its UNESCO-listed Byzantine mosaics. Road transfers reach the terminal directly, so cruise passengers can be dropped close to their ship with luggage assistance, without the walk or shuttle connections some Italian ports require.
Many travellers combine the transfer with a visit to Ravenna's historic centre — home to Basilica di San Vitale and Mausoleo di Galla Placidia — either before boarding or on a stopover. Ask your driver about timing this if your embarkation window allows it.
