sippican Posted March 29, 2012 #4 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Pullmantur,, tendering is Villefranche as stated on the itinerary. Thanks EN You would need to get some form of transportation from Villefranche to Nice. I believe the train is convenient but I'm sure someone else can chime in on that option. Be prepared that the beaches in Nice are not powdery soft sand; they appear rather rocky with coarse pebbly sand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuropeNow Posted April 2, 2012 Author #8 Share Posted April 2, 2012 GAfternoon Pobulus and welcome back....am I evry glad to see ya back... Below is ur last reply to my post on another thread,,,since then,,, I have been trying to find info...to clear things and able you to understnd and give me an answer........... I would like to just see IT ALL :) Monaco/Montecarlo,,, look around and take pics,,, at the end of my journey I am hoping to at least put my feet in the water at Plage des Mariniers and have a bite to eat at Lounge beach or a glass of wine at the HotelWelcome WinePeir :) Is this doable? If as u said everything is closed ....I can use that time to move around from VF. The beach on the link I believe is Des Mariniers. Whts the connection time between Monaco-Nice-VF? What about trains? Thanks for your help. hello don't worry the Grand Prix is on 24 til 27 so no problem about that your problem is the hour 7h AM it's really early and nothing is open you will have to make a choice : staying in Monaco or Nice what i suggest you is taking the 100 bus to go to Nice a 7 AM staying in the old town ( cours Saleya the castle Place Massena etc.... ) take the 100 back to Monaco around 12H30 ( 45mn ) you ll will have time to see Monaco too :) hello i m living there lolol!!! i don't understand very well what you want to do stay in Villefranche ??? going to Nice beaches ???? sightseeing ??? when are you docking and how many time do you stay ???:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pobulus Posted April 3, 2012 #9 Share Posted April 3, 2012 :) hello depends at what time you get off the ship if it's around 8 AM you have time to take the bus to Nice stay for a while just ti time to see the market and the old town ( it's really typical and you will have a real tate of french life) have a look to the top of the castle take the bus back around NOOn stop at Villefranche the " promenade des Marinieres " is very near your docking don't think you ll have time to go to Monaco not enough time villefranche is very near nice it will take about 20 minute to Half an hour on the early morning to get there At noon no more time added it's not a rush hour in France generally it's very quiet at this time And also it's a saturday so no rush work hours :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
