Oh please come back and let us know where you docked! Hmmm I wonder if the private tour companies are watching who's docking where? I better check with SPG for our end of July port of call tour from supposedly Ny.

The tour company (SPB ALLA ..) will know and refund train portion from Nynashamn.

We were on Jun 4 Regal Princess and docked at Stockholm for the first time according to the captain. Saved us an hour of train ride into town, but we left Stockholm at 2 pm instead of 7 pm.

Gothenburg city centre round-trip shuttle from Regal Princess on Fri, May 15 was free, no payment needed. I believe this was a subsidized service from the port authority. Caught me by surprise (the port lecturer mentioned it in his presentation, and that night's patter confirmed it), as I'd read so much about the different prices and whether it was even worth it. For free, it was a no-brainer!

 

That said, I wish the ship had docked at the other spot next to the Volvo Museum. There was a sign with the taxi rate there, but I can't remember how much it was -- about 200 SEK?

Is it walkable from the Regal Princess Dock to Volvo museum ?

Quote from Port Authority of Gothenburg

Skandia 643

The port of Skandia can welcome cruise ships of unlimited size and the biggest

cruise ships dock here. Shuttle buses provided by the cruise lines will take you to

the city centre. It is about 9 km (5,5 miles) and the bus ride will take 15-20

minutes.

This map shows berth 642-643 quite close to Volvo museum

I too love to try driving into Berlin & experience the autobahn.

Any anticipated road closure along A19 A24 A10 Jun 7 2015 ?

Where is the closest service station to fill-up gas before car return ?

Is street parking free in Berlin on Sunday ?

It appears that only SIXT is accepting online reservation at this moment.

Thx

Is credit card payment in USD as quoted on the tour web site ?
