It’s a nice walk from the cruise terminal if you are fit enough ; head up Patrick Street ( right turn as come out cruise terminal) and head straight up until Finnart street , turn right And west along Finnart street for a couple of blocks then left and right turn takes you into Newton street and again right and west as the street heads up the Lyle Hill ; you can do a loop by walking down the other side and head back along via the Esplanade ; use google maps to show you the route ; would take 90 plus minutes but it’s s nice walk through the west end with lovely views ; pick up one of the local info leaflets about the houses on the Esplanade which will make the walk back more interesting

Hi, it's not difficult, pavements all the way, depending on your ability 30 - 60 minutes from the dock. A good alternative is the volunteer guides who run trips from the boat round local attractions or us a taxi, but perhaps walk into town rather than use one from the boat as they will be looking for the "bigger" trips going further afield, also there is an open top tour bus usually meeting the cruise ships when they dock. you should get info on the boat about these i think.

By taxi about 10 mins walking depending on how fit you are a good half hour but up hill hope this helps

Yes, Gourock is the nearest and good for shopping in original shops in town centre and Cardwell Bay. Bracing walk along the prom.

Sorry it has taken so long to answer. There is a local train station Greenock West where you can take a train one stop down the line to Fort Maltida. But the hike up the hill is exhusting. I would take a taxi there and walk back through the west end of Greenock.

Yes it is a quick walk from Fort Matilda station, but it is quite difficult as it's a steep incline and can only be achieved by foot (or car)! It is, however worth the effort as it it an excellent vantage point for viewing the picturesque view of the river Clyde and it is the site of the Free French Memorial, which dominates it! Sorry to be so long before answering your question!
