My October 27 cruise ends in Monte Carlo on November 3. It does overnight there from November 2, so I will get to look around. I decided to spend November 3 in Nice, since I booked a 9 a.m. flight back to the U.S. I am not sre that was a wise idea, but the other flights seemed to have 6 hour layouvers in the NE from midnight. In retro, I wish I had stayed in NJ at a friend's and made the flight going back even longer.

At any rate, I have booked Hotel Le Perouse due to the view and location.

Should I arrange transfer from the ship in advance or just get a taxi after debarkation in Monte Carlo? Should I do more sightseeing before going to the hotel? My cruise is port intensive with no sea days, and I am staying in Rome beforehand and Hassler, so I imagine I will have had my fill of sightseeing.
