Just the ferry to Italy, depending on where in Italy, takes the best

Not really. Patras to Brindisi is overnight, and to Ancona is less than a
day.


It's why I said "depending on where in Italy". You have chosen the
shortest
route. When I did Ancona Patras it was almost 48 hours including all the
buggering around to get on and off the ferry. Maybe the loading and the
ferries
are faster now.
