We are thinking about driving from Nice to Portofino during our honeymoon in late April. Has anyone ever done this drive? Would you recommend driving or using other transportation (the train)?<BR>Thank you!

We did it and took our time. Be prepared for the darkness -- we counted 124 tunnels on the autostrata between Monte Carlo and Rapallo. We left Nice after breakfast, stopped and walked around a bit in Santa Margherita and still arrived in Portofino before 1 PM. The road from Santa Margherita to Portofino is a little scary. We were behind a large tour bus, which we felt was clearing the way for us around the many blind curves. Actually we found this part of the drive a little scarier than the Amalfi coast, but I wouldn't let it worry you.
