Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Carl Freuden from Facebook asks, We’re on a one-day cruise stop at Villefranche-sur-Mer, halfway between Monte Carlo and Nice. Given such a short stop, which city would you choose to visit and why?

Carl, the good news is that you can’t really make a bad decision here. Both Nice and Monaco would be good options. If I were you, I’d go to Monaco, if for no other reason than you can say you visited Monaco, which is an independent country. Monaco is really small, and you can literally walk across the country in about an hour. You can also see all the luxury yachts that are there, check out the Monte Carlo Casino, and pretend you are a high roller for at least a few hours. If you do go to Nice, I’d suggest visiting the Matisse and the Chagall museums.
