UniWorld - How much time in port

[Perki]

Most cruise lines show arrival and departure times but I can't find anything on UniWorld's site as to how long they are in port at each stop on the Paris to Normandy cruise. They do include a shore excursion at each stop but is there enough time to go out on our own after the shore excursion or even to get some drinks and/or dinner in each port? If anyone has any information or can point me towards someplace this is listed it would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi perki,

 

You can get the port times by emailing Uniworld - see http://www.uniworld.com/contact-us

 

Ask for the port times in your email. We did this for our recent cruise and received a reply in a couple of days.

You can find most of the excursion info on the Cruise Companion on the Uniworld web site. Here's a link to the one for the France itineraries:

I can also recommend Grand Circle River cruises. Just returned from the River Harmony from Vienna to Amsterdam. Highly recommend all.

Having taken Grand Circle's The Seine: Paris to Normandy last spring, we seemed to have significantly more port time than the other cruise lines. It was a one way cruise from Paris to Honfleur, while many others do a round trip from Paris to Rouen, navigating the same stretch of river twice. We returned to Paris by bus. Grand Circle publishes it's port time in their catalogue and on their web site http://www.gct.com. I did a trip report/blog on the cruise at http://jackthetravelingman-seine,blogspot.com.
