Monte Carlo Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

A backpacker in Monaco

To visit Monaco, I travelled to the city of Nice, 15 kilometres west of this country. If you buy a ticket at the right time, you can get to Nice by train and bus from various European cities such as Milan, Italy (between 20 and 30 euros) and Paris, France (between 25 and 45 euros). There are also flights to Nice from various Schengen countries, operated by Ryanair, Wizz Air and EasyJet, which are sometimes cheaper than buses and trains (because of the flexibility you have in choosing your time and route). The train from Nice airport and the Intercity bus station (next to Terminal 1 of the same airport) to the city centre costs less than 2 euros. As it is much cheaper to stay in Nice than in Monaco, it makes sense to stay in Nice. When I saw that booking a room at the Hotel de Berne for two people was cheaper than the cost of two beds in a hostel (the total cost for two people is 45 euros per night), we chose this hotel to stay (as opposed to my usual practice of staying in a hostel). It should be noted that the published statistics and costs refer to 27 January 2023, and these costs may change (be more or less) in different seasons or in the coming years. At sunrise we went to the Nice-Ville station, just 150 metres from our accommodation, to catch the train to Monaco. A one-way ticket from Nice to Monaco and vice versa costs 4 euros each and departures are from around 6am to 11pm (every half hour). We arrived at Monte Carlo station in about 15 minutes and the sightseeing of Monaco began. Although Monaco was not a common destination for backpackers like us, we did not feel out of place at all. Best places to visit: Monte Carlo Casino, Un Jardin d'acclimatation, Port of Monte Carlo, The Prince's Palace of Monaco, Saint Nicholas Cathedral, Oceanography Museum #backpacker #backpacking #budget_travel #monaco #montecarlo

Monaco's dreamy azure coast vacation, you are my god!

Hi, the Mid-Autumn National Day holiday is coming soon👋, I want to share a super 🔥 secret with you: my long-cherished Monte Carlo seaside resort!✨ This trip is simply a dream come true!🌈 I came to Monaco's "Monte Carlo Secret Hotel" this time, and booked a very interesting parent-child suite early, as if I were in a dream world! I have to mention that the hotel's V.I.K parent-child service is very intimate, and has prepared many welcome gifts for the children who stay, such as fresh juice, chocolate lollipops🍭 and coloring sets. Game room, chessboard, mini football field, simply children's favorite! Opposite the Oceanographic Museum here, you can also take a sightseeing train to tour Monaco and feel the charm of this "City of Princes"! If you drive by yourself, you can reach the old town of Nice in 35 minutes. The surrounding short-distance South France tour is very convenient In the morning, I will wake up in the sound of the waves, and then admire the incomparable super beautiful sea view🍽️ on the balcony. In the afternoon, I will participate in water experience courses, such as surfing and diving, etc., and feel like I have become an adventurer!🏄‍♀️ If you are tired, arrange a hydrotherapy SPA to completely relax yourself😎 . Dinner specially went to check in a super fire🔥 Michelin three-star restaurant "Monte Carlo Louis XV-Alain Ducasse Restaurant", I heard that there will be a flash event during the National Day in Sanya Edison. The Michelin two-star chef of Blue Bay will be on the scene to cook. Don't miss the foodies! Facing such a beautiful sea view, wine and music are a perfect match🍻, the signature cocktail super great jazz style American bar, the hotel's Crystal Bar and outdoor wine lounge... This "legendary everywhere" place interprets a unique lifestyle for a century, and the entire azure coast gives an indescribable shock experience. The service of the entire resort is top-notch! Their enthusiasm made me feel very warm🥰 I want to strongly recommend this hotel to all friends who like luxury vacations and beautiful sea views! You will definitely fall in love with this dreamy vacation treasure!

Very nice lovey place to travel to

This came out like a fairytale. ❄️🤍

Trip with @icelandwithsophie 📍Skogafoss, Iceland 🇮🇸 With an intimidating 60 meter drop, Skogafoss is one of Iceland’s biggest waterfalls and it is also one of the most accessible waterfall in the area. One tip we have for visiting in winter - take microspikes so you can easily walk around the waterfalls.

Monaco travel info and tips

#celebratewithtrip #monaco #montecarlo #transport #traveling We travelled from Nice to Monaco by train. Trains are almost every half and hour and are very accessible. You can check times and prices.. Word of advice, as you arrive at the train station find the lifts that take you down to the city as the main station is at Monaco’s highest point and unless you have a car you will have to walk all the way down. We obviously did the latter. Lesson learned. Transportation in Monaco is fairly easy with public transport and you will mainly use buses. There is also a boat service connecting Monaco-Ville with Monte Carlo.

Iconic casino in Monaco 🇲🇨🎰

#timetotravel To my friends and I, the building is iconic because of the movie “Monte Carlo” starring Selena Gomez. We tried to take pictures at every filming location we could find!! The casino of Monte Carlo is really busy and packed with tourists. To enter the casino, there is an entrance fee of €18 and dress code. You also have to bring your passport along. Since none of us really gamble, so we did not bother entering the casino but merely the lobby for pictures. #境外遊 #monaco #montecarlo #casino

beutiful summer in Monaco, and all coast #urbanexplorer#awesomepic

Experience a vacation vibe with the perfect accommodation choice during Monaco F1.

The long-standing Monaco Grand Prix is known for this glamorous city and unique street circuit, and has become a cultural symbol of the F1 race. During the event, some rooms at the Fairmont Monte Carlo Hotel offer unparalleled views. (Therefore, a minimum of 5 nights stay is required, and the price is not cheap.) The hotel location is quite good, on the 7th floor you can go out to Monaco's opera house, Cafe de Paris is under renovation, and it is not far from several shopping malls. The hotel is undergoing renovations on different floors, and the 5th floor rooms facing the race track have already been renovated. The two rooms use a refreshing white as the main color, which is very comfortable. I personally like it. However, if you're here to play, I would recommend the view facing the bay. It feels like being on a cruise ship, and the view from the breakfast restaurant on the seventh floor is also great. Next to the breakfast restaurant is the swimming pool, which is perfect for swimming and having breakfast in the morning. If there is anything not good enough to mention, it would be that the corridors are not bright enough and the lobby has a relatively old design.
