The 15 Best Monaco & Monte-Carlo Day Trips from Nice

163 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.6 average  ·  from $29

Monaco is twenty minutes by train and a whole country away. These 15 cover the half-days that get you to the palace square for the guard change, the full days that add Èze and La Turbie, and the evening runs that see the harbour lit. Priced, timed, and clear about how much walking each one involves.

Half-day trip from Nice to Eze, Monaco, Monte-Carlo, with Fragonard perfume, palace views, and a Formula 1 circuit drive.

“We had a great time on our tour! I thought it would be in a big coach bus, but it was in a van that fit 8 of us. Eze was a nice surprise, a smaller walled medieval city with winding narrow alleys. Definitely fun to explore. In Monaco, we drove on the actual path of the Formula One race cars, so much fun! As we drove by Monaco’s port, we had a glimpse of all the yachts and mega yachts. I didn’t realize Monte Carlo was just up the hill and walking distance from the port. It was Christmas time, all the decorations were up and a lot of…”

Small-group French Riviera day trip from Nice to Eze, Monaco, Monte-Carlo, Cannes, and Antibes, with hotel pickup in a Mercedes van.

“Great introduction to the popular French Riviera area for the rich and famous with a bit of history included. It was, I think, good to visit these centres... Cannes, Monte-Carlo, Eze, and some places in between. There are some interesting things to learn and enough free time to work out it you want to visit again. Helpful to be picked up from Motel and dropped off. A good value day tour.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 559 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $30

Hop on and off a Monaco open-top bus with 12 stops, 8-language audio, and a cruise terminal stop for harbor views and easy sightseeing.

“Quick one hour round trip view of Monaco. You are provided earplugs for speakers at each seat that plays a pre recorded script as you go through the city. The script has great information on some of the historical places you pass and stop by. Traffic through tunnels and the driver making announcements make it tough to hear sometimes but it’s not too often. Monaco is beautiful and this hop on hop off takes you to all the highlights. Things to keep in mind- it’s crowded during the high season, so be prepared to wait for a bus at some of the stops. Also I’d recommend sitting on top, even…”
