[lbertoni]

Before hand and know what excursions you want to do. For example in Toulon we took an excursion that took us by bus an hour and a half from the ship. We walked around the town , wat and got back on the bus. The town of Toulon had the same architecture and a beautiful seaport with a harbor filled with sailboats. We could have walked off the ship wandered around the town and then had lunch on the water. It would have been a perfect day.
