SEPT. 16, 2013 NICE, FRANCE (VILLEGRANCHE)

Our first port is Villefranche, France (Nice) and we will be in port from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm.
This is a tender port where we must be tendered from the ship to the port.





Since we went on an excursion to Monaco last year we decided to take the excursion to Saint-Paul de Vence - two hour bus ride from the port to the walled village.

Since we had some time before he had to join our excursion we stopped at a cafe we ate at last year. the food was good and it had a great WIFI connection.

Afterwards we joined our tour  and we had a scenic drive past Nice to the village. the walled part of the village was small and easy to walk around in.
After our walk we decided to have our late lunch at a cafe near the bus and the food was really good.
We then boarded the bus and it drove along the Nice seaside so we could see the big hotels and lovely beach.
We then walked around Villefranche and took photos and then got on the tender to go to our ship.
