Hello....I was referred to this site from Joanna and what a great site! Thanks Joanna, much more informative than some others. I have a few quick questions....I am traveling on Radisson Seven Seas from Monte Carlo to Athens leaving October 22..Can anyone recommend a Driver or Driving service for Capri or any of the stops for that matter as well as any recommended excursions for this itinerary. Also, since we arrive into Nice at 9:00 am are we taken directly to the boat or do we have time in Nice as well as are we able to do an excursion in Monte Carlo prior to the boat leaving. Any input would be greatly appreciated.....thanks

Clare: I have bragged about how welcoming the LCT members will be and offer help for your driver questions - we arrived Nice at 10 am and by the time we got luggage etc we headed to ship at noon - were able to board asap ...anyone else have an opinion???

Hi Clare & welcome.

There's a section from the main page "Private Guides". I found one thread related to sorrento

http://www.luxurycruisetalk.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=10;t=000019

We've used Renato Cuomo's limo service and had a very good experience twice in the Sorrento area. http://www.cuomonet.it

His website includes Capri but we've only used him from Sorrento. For Capri, we took the hydrofoil service (near where the tenders will take you from the ship) and got a taxi on the island.

I hope that helps. Enjoy your trip! It's a wonderful itinerary. Cheers, Anne

Welcome, Clare! My husband, John, and I will be on the same cruise with you. There are several others from this board who also will be on board. It should be a great group. So glad you will be along!

As to drivers and excursions, I'll get out my information and get back to you. Right now I'm running off to a meeting, but I'll be back with information.

Hi Clare - I too welcome you to LCT, I'm sure you will find a lot of useful information here. Joanna is a great contributor, I'm sure that you will be too.

Can't answer your questions - actually we are going on the Monte Carlo-Rome Sept 10, but since we will also be on the previous segment, we won't be arriving in Monte Carlo. Since its a turnover day, don't know what we will do, there aren't any excursions available, so I think we've decided to just make an easy day of it and wander around MC on our own.

Someone will have the answer for you, and you can check out the Private Guide section.
