Mein Schiff 4 in Toulon (La Seyne-sur-Mer): your port day guide
TUI Cruises · 1 call in Toulon Bay in 2026 · mostly Allemands guests.
What to expect from a Mein Schiff 4 call
At up to 2,700 guests, Mein Schiff 4 is a mid-to-large ship — busy in bursts but rarely overwhelming. Late spring brings warm, comfortable days and a coast that hasn’t yet filled with summer crowds.
Guests aboard are mostly German; ashore the local language is French, with English common wherever tourists go.
Docked at Môle Nord, the €2 8M ferry across the bay is the easy, cheap way into Toulon.

Which day trips fit the Mein Schiff 4 call?
Mein Schiff 4 is alongside from 07:00–16:00. Take off the half hour it takes to actually get off the ship, the 30 minutes before all-aboard, the 2 hr 20 min it costs to reach Toulon’s station and come back from Môle Nord, the travelling itself, and an hour of margin — and this is what is genuinely left on the ground.
