CSloan Posted February 2, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Brest will be a stop for us in April. It will be a short one, 7am to 3pm (Sky Princess). We have a 2-hour walking tour booked in town at 11am that meets downtown. It looks like there is a shuttle that goes from the ship to town, but I have been able to figure out how often the shuttle runs (both directions). Also, trying to see if town is in walking distance from the ship. I don't think getting to the tour will be an issue, but want to make sure we'll have plenty of time to get back to the ship. I'm assuming we'll need to be onboard by 2pm, but don't know for sure. Any insights are appreciated! Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thejuggler Posted February 10, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 10, 2020 7am to 3pm is plenty of time, very little of interest as the centre was heavily bombed during the war and was rebuilt. It is some time since we visited, but from experience of many ports buses run about every 15-20 minutes. We couldn't walk into town as it was some way and we were in a very busy commercial area.

Snort Posted February 20, 2020 #4 Share Posted February 20, 2020 We will be joining you on the TA portion of this cruise, from Ft Lauderdale to Copenhagen. We are thinking of renting a car and taking the 2-hour drive to Carnac to see the Menhirs. There is a 1-hr Tuk Tuk tour in Carnac. That would give us just enough time for an Oyster lunch too. Does anyone know if the car rental agencies will pick you up at the cruise ship in Brest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
