One of the longest serving ships in the GNV fleet, the Majestic has been providing enjoyable and safe Mediterranean crossings for years. The vessel can carry up to 1790 passengers at a time as well as 760 vehicles. The ship has comfortable cabins and sumptuous suites for passengers to enjoy. There is a wide array of food options onboard, a shopping centre, designated children’s area and even a seasonal swimming pool. Public Wi-Fi is available for those making the crossing.
There are plenty of accommodation options on the Majestic with 341 cabins, 19 suites and two specially adapted disabled rooms. All cabins come with air conditioning, en suite bathrooms, including a shower and hairdryer and the comfy beds will help you put your feet up, relax and maybe get some much needed sleep. If you choose to stay in one of the spacious suites you will be able to take advantage of complimentary air conditioning, a television, radio and mini bar, as well as a large porthole for you to admire the sea views.
Every travellers culinary needs will be catered for on the Majestic. If you are looking for a sophisticated sit down meal then the a la carte option is for you. Here you can enjoy three courses, serving a combination of Mediterranean, regional and delicious international dishes. As well as that there is the more informal self-service section and a snack bar and kebab area for those wanting a quick bite to eat.
A shopping centre can be found on the Majestic where you can enjoy duty free shopping whilst on the move. You have the chance to purchase gifts and enjoy bargains on items such as perfumes, aftershaves, alcohol and other selected items. There are also newspapers, magazines, books, toys and puzzles to help you pass the time on your travels.
In the summer months make sure you back those swimming costumes as you can enjoy the benefits of the Mediterranean climate from the on deck pool. If you and your colleagues need to have meetings on the move then you’re covered. This is thanks to the conference centre and meeting rooms onboard. The public Wi-Fi allows you to surf the web as well as the waves whilst with GNV. You’ll also find a chapel and library on the ferry.
Travelling with little ones can sometimes be a challenge but the designated children’s area helps keep young voyagers happy.
The ship has been adapted throughout to help travellers with restricted mobility and also has four disabled cabins.

"Salutations "
Très bon voyage.
"Wouldn't book them again "
When we got on the ship it already has people asleepnin the common areas and all over the floor. No change over or clean had been done. The mens toilet were blocked, tissue and water all over the floor. The common areas, the carpet looked like it hadn't been hoovered or cleaned for months. They also left over an hour late. So many kids screaming most of the time on the boat.
"Trip Genoa to Barcelona"
The ship was not punctual and the crew unhelpful.
"Awful"
Awful time keeping in regard to when the ship was actually leaving port and to what was happening before hand. Awful time keeping when being asked to leave the ship, pet cabins that stayed late checkout were asked to leave cabins 2hrs+ before even anywhere near docking at Barcelona. Poor cleanliness across the whole ship and also in the cabins, previous pet hair left all across the floor and in the bathroom. Those staying on the ship to Tangier must have been cooking in cabins as the stench on the boat was horrendous and also where people hadn’t booked cabins and were sleeping on floors across the ship. Wouldn’t recommend at all.
"Great"
Great
"Amazing "
Loved it! Won’t use Baleria or Trans ever again! Great value for money :))
"Refund due to Corona"
Due to the Corona virus the ferry was canceled but I got a full refund via a voucher. Nice. Thank you !.

"Horrible crossing."
Horrible crossing - in fact possibly the worst ferry I have ever taken. It was full of people travelling from North Africa who laid out mattresses and food on the floor. The piano bar had been turned in to a prayer room (which seemed very incongruous) and none of the bars were open at all during the trip. The ship was filthy throughout - dirt on all the tables and carpets. No seating in the reception area apart from a straight banquet. Few staff to be seen during the entire time. A woman sat down next to me and was sick all over the floor. A staff member finally came over to her with a clear plastic bag and when I asked her to clear up the vomit she just shrugged. The catering staff in the proper restaurant were good and the food was fine, but they seemed very depressed as to the quality of their passengers and the poor condition of the ship. Overall it felt like a refugee boat. Never ever again will I use this route.
"Nice crossing despite weather conditions"
ferry boat departure time is only indicative. It is rare that ferries sail on time however the ferry was nice, clean and people on board courteous.
"Car to Barcelona delivery "
Everyone was very helpful and friendly. Best ferry I’ve been on in the Mediterranean! Only think was only one power point in the cabin which is difficult with sharing with people you don’t know. Pillow was non existent.
"Dassengers sleeping in corridors"
When I pay for a cabin I do not expect to step around people sleeping on mats in corridors. This company should get its act together and not be afraid of upsetting certain faiths. If you cannot afford a cabin or a reclining seat on an overnight ferry, then tough. The fact is, is that if you have no choice other than pay for a reclining seat or cabin on an overnight ferry you will, just as you must on Brittany Ferries. That apart the staff are first rate.
"Easy and convenient "
Check desk around the corner of the building. Spoke good English to help us on our way. Walk on oassabgerd had to stand around the side waiting to be let on which was a little confusing. Food on boat ok. Long queue at self service which meant food was cold by the time we ate. Lifts very busy on arrival to exit. Cabins comfy enough. No power sockets though. Eveeyone charging phones around the boat.
"Sete to Tangier Med"
As a foot passenger was surprised at the lack of signage as to where to wait or which direction to go to gain access to the boat or any indication as to when access may be gained. Once on board the ships were spotlessly clean and all facilities were good with the exception of WiFi. It was very difficult and very expensive to gain WiFi access. €10 for 40 minutes and €20 for two hours. Staff at reception were quite curt when asking about WiFi. Passport control aboard the ship was ridiculous with one man responsible for checking the passports of all the passengers aboard. I queued for two and a half hours to get my passport stamped.
"A pleasant and enjoyable crossing."
Comfortable cabin, friendly staff, passable prepaid meal.
"GNV Majestic to PAlermo"
Very much enjoyed the crossing. Ship was clean, staff were excellent and very helpful, and cabins were very good. Departure and arrival spot on time, and very smooth (we had an overnight crossing, on a half-empty ferry). One comment is around the signage to get to the ferry terminal - the entrance is poorly-marked, and GNV is not on any sign from the main road (we had forgotten that GNV used to be SNAV), which caused more stress than needed to find the entrance. Once we did, staff were very helpful in directing us to the right ship. The on-board cafeteria is not particularly cheap, or distinguished.
"Straightforward journey "
A pleasant trip on board Majestic. The boat was not too busy so easy to get a seat in the main hall and dining room but not so good on deck. The coffee bar was ok but there was very limited seating up there. Cabin was good- clean & comfortable- as a solo traveller I shared with 3 other ladies & we got on fine. Boarding in Barcelona was straightforward but disembarking in Tangier was chaotic - as one of only four foot passengers on board I was in the midst of all the other passengers trying to get to their cars & this was a bit confusing. Free bus to the port station was good.
"Vayage"
Everything was ok
"Overnight ferry"
There were no clear directions for foot passengers as to where to go to board the boat and you had to walk through all of the cars and lorry's lining up to board - at the risk of being run over. We were informed boarding would start at 6pm and so dutifully lined up with our luggage waiting. In fact boarding for foot passengers only started at 7: 15ish. This was fine as the weather was good. However had it been raining we would have been standing there for over an hour without any shelter. There was no information given and no one seemed to know what was happening. Also, there needs to be a lift to the boarding deck - we had huge heavy cases as were touring Italy for 3 weeks and had to get them up a flight of very steep and awkward stairs.
"A good trip"
Both of our journeys went well. One thing that has room for improvement were the towels which were old and left a lot of fluff around. Otherwise everything was pretty much as expected.
"Route Genoa/Barcellona and return"
Departures and arrivals really punctual, ship really dirty also the cabin with toilet, in the return journey it was never clean, a lots of kids were making noise till late and the staff intervened only when I asked for it, the quality of the restaurant is just enough for the italians standards, the price is to expensive for the kind of food served, general services (reception, security, boarding and landing procedures) are poor despite the kindness of the staff.
"Good schip"
It was a good experience. I want to travel again next year. Recommended.
"Judge"
All went good, compliments.
"Ferry crossing"
Enjoyed. Had a cabin to myself. No entertainment . Movies only in Italian. Food a little limited. Staff very nice and friendly.
"Weather"
We tried so hard to turn the air conditioner off, even with the help of the staff. But in vain. We had to use more than a blanket. Really nice and helpful staff. A good journey.
"Genoa Palermo and riturn"
Genoa-Palermo in board the La Superba it was not the best journey, all approximeted, poor self-service quality. The return with Majestic was so much better, good cleaning, especially inside the cabin, helpfull staff, it was like a mini cruise with a really resanable price.
"Nice experience"
In conclusion was a nice trip, kind staff and helpful, clean enviroments.
"Personal opinion"
excellent trip and excellent services
"A request"
Thank for the journey it was perfect, I was wondering if you are going to activate again in the future the route Termini Imerese Livorno and return. Thanks
"Great "
Great
"Outside cabin with no sea view"
We didn't have an ocean view from our room because the life boats were hanging right outside our window. I was misled as this wasn't mentioned at the time the booking was made. Everything else was ok.

"service"
good service, thanks
"Grandi Navi Veloci"
The journey in a 3 pple cabin was confortable. We departed on time and arrived on time. The cabin was clean, the crew was polite and competent. We weren't given any information about evacuation, plus the announcement from the speakers were inaudible. The catering was decent (if you consider that it is a ferry and not a gourmet cruise. There was a chaotic momenet when we entered Morocco with the formalities. The police officier wasn't organised. Going through customs is easy though if you're staying less than a month.
