Villefranche Tender Port - Where

[KikisDad]

Hello,

We will be on the Celebrity Eclipse this year with a tender port at Villefranche. Can someone let me know where the tenders dock? Thanks!

Not sure how to answer other then to say they dock at the tender pier (not being smart with this answer). Villefranche does not have a long port. If you look at a map of the town the pier is located at the lower (left side) of the relatively small village. On Google Maps it is actually in the area labeled Port du Villefranche sur Mer. If you plan on going off independently you can walk to the local train station (although there are a significant number of steps up to the small station) or to any of several bus stops.
