Monte Carlo question

[tango55]

Hi everyone. We will be sailing on the Star Princess in Oct. to the Med., and our first port is Monte Carlo. The only thing I really want to do there, is go to the casino, maybe play a hand of blackjack, and get a casino chip to add to my collection.

Does anyone know the hours for the casino? We went on a website and it looked like it didn't open til 4 pm. If that's the case, I need to know if I'd have time to go there and get back to the ship before it sails at 6 pm. I'm not sure where the tender port is compared to the casino.

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Terry

Thanks for the links Red, they are very helpful! Still doesn't look like I'll be able to play blackjack though, as they all seem to open late. Our cruise leaves at 6 pm, and don't want to take a chance on missing the tender!

thanks so much,

Terry
