Hello:<BR><BR>We are taking the Brilliance of the Seas in AUgust 2002 for the Baltic/Russia. We are arriving in London 1 day before and are wondering how to travel to Harwich by train. Any advise?<BR><BR>Sandra

Please write to me off the forum.. I have a price that was quoted to somebody else. We are doing Harwich to Boston.

We took that cruise several years ago,(on an RCCL ship) and asked the same question re the train. At that time, we figured that we would really not get to the ship on time for departure.I went on the web site for the train and got the schedule. We ended up with a pre cruise one night in London at the hotel from the ship, and included was a transfer to the ship. Transfers are costly, but worth it. London is a busy city. I think you can purchase transfers from RCCL and pick it up at their hotel if you stay elsewhere as some of our freinds did. Lately, the cruise lines have been strict with transfers so it may not be the case now.

<BR>Transfers are only offered through the cruise line if you are statying at one of their sponsored hotels.<BR><BR>Paul<BR>

Paul, please contact me off the forum!!!

When we took the Dana Anglia from Denmark to Harwich, we got on a train very near the port (like just a short walk through a covered walkway) that took us into Liverpool Station in London. We departed from Liverpool Station when we went back to Harwich. This was in 1998.
