mugeda Posted July 20, 2010 #2 Share Posted July 20, 2010 We will be taking a river cruise departing from Paris, my question is where does the boat dock? Second seating They usually dock at Port de Javel Bas near the Pont du Garigliano entrance. This is near the Bd. Victor RER station and the Pont du Garigliano tram station. It is on the left bank in front of or just downstream from Parc Andre Citroen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacksonnh Posted July 20, 2010 #3 Share Posted July 20, 2010 They have docked at Port de Javel Bas, Pier Quai Andre Citroen just south of the status of liberty at Quai de Grenelle. You will get docking locations in your paperwork as they may have to move locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare franski Posted July 20, 2010 #4 Share Posted July 20, 2010 If you are flying in on the day of embarkation, Uniworld will meet you at the airport. We had an interesting gentleman meet us --> MAJOR mullet, 3 piece suit and cowboy boots. He only spoke a little English - but did his best to point out points of interest on the ride into town... By the way - in France do you think "mullet" is pronounced "moo-lay"?? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Second seating Posted July 22, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Thank you for the information regarding the docking. We are arriving by train, so we will not be picked up. Second seating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare franski Posted July 22, 2010 #6 Share Posted July 22, 2010 I think that Uniworld may still pick you up at the train station - as long as you arrive on the day of embarkation.... Have you asked??? We are arriving into Cologne by train for our Christmas Market cruise this November. We were a bit leary about arriving by train instead of flying in (as we do want the transfers) - but Uniworld has assured us that this is not a problem. Now,we did book our air through Uniworld (it was as cheap as making our own arrangements) - but my TA did not get the sense that this transfer from the train station was anything unusual. Might be worth a phone call.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got the exact docking info the day before via e-mail. Second seating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
