Spain Palma de Mallorca and Nice, France

[SailorJack]

How close is the cruise ship dock from town? Can you walk from the cruise port into town? Same question for Nice.

 

Thanks

In Mallorca (which is discussed on the Spain board), yes, you can walk into town.

There is a dedicated "sticky" for Palma at the top of the Spain Ports Forum which you would find interesting to read and  any questions you might have about Palma are likely to have been asked and answered on it.

 

It is this one

There are two possible port locations for Nice, with a third option for (I think) only the largest ships being tendered into nearby Villefranche.

 

You could check cruise calendars on the official port websites for Nice and/or Villefranche to be sure you know which will be your docking or tendering location. Once you know that, it will be easier to make plans.
