MONACO - 1 DAY IN THE PRINCIPALITY.
I'll share a few things about Monaco for those who want to visit and travel here.
Departing from Nice Airport (Nice Côte d'Azur Airport).
I arrived at Nice Airport, Terminal 1 at 5:30 AM. It wasn't crowded yet. You can sleep temporarily at the airport.
Then move to the Saint-Augustin Metro station (7-10 minutes walk) to buy a ticket to Monaco. I bought the ticket at the automatic ticket machine, there was a small issue but a train passenger helped so it was quick.
1 ticket 6.9 €/one way (sit on the right to watch the sunrise).
You can also go by bus (easier to enjoy the scenery).
Get off at Monaco - Monte Carlo station.
A few main attractions here:
- Port Hercule
- Port of Fontvieille view point
- Cathedrale de Monaco
- Palais Princier
- Casino de Monte Carlo
- Fairmont Hairpin
- Jardin du Casino
- Larvotto Beach
- Stade Louis II
In Monaco, the terrain is mostly hilly. So, the locations on Google Maps are very close to each other. But in reality, they are very far and take more time than usual.
You can get around and visit by bus. Personally, I walked to enjoy the Mediterranean sun and wind.
In the afternoon returning, I went back to Nice Airport and also bought the ticket directly at the ticket machine in Monaco.
I went at the end of November 2025. The weather was cool, not too cold. Sunny all day.
