2025 Monaco City Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#myitinerary #100waysoftravel Imagine traveling to a country whose size is smaller than a town, you got it, the Principality of Monaco. Spanning a size of 2.08km2, it is the second smallest country in the world after Vatican City. It is ho.e to 38,682 residences, being recognized as the wealthiest and most expensive in the world. We went there in the morning and decided to take a ride and stroll around the country. We first took the Azur express which brings us around the town, then we walk around and visited place like the French Riviera, Monte Carlo Casino, Prince's Palace, Saint Devote Church etc. We did not stay in the country but would one day like to do so, as you get to enjoy the breeze of one of the wealthiest country in the world. Simply a splendid tour in the city and I will definitely come again.

#celebratewithtrip #monaco #montecarlo #museum Visit the Oceanographic Museum At the end of the Saint Martin Gardens you will be able to see the Oceanographic Museum. From what we read, this is very similar to SEA LIFE London Aquarium and we didn’t feel like visiting on this occasion. If you haven’t been to a place like this before or if you are visiting Monaco with kids, then the Oceanographic Museum might just be the right thing for you. The Oceanographic Museum is a museum of marine sciences in Monaco-Ville, Monaco. This building is part of the Institut océanographique, which is committed to sharing its knowledge of the oceans.

#celebratewithtrip #monaco #montecarlo #cathedral The cathedral is right next to the Palace of Justice which boasts an interesting design with white stone. The cathedral itself looks magnificent and overlooks the Gardens of Saint Martin and the Mediterranean. The inside décor of the cathedral is just as impressive and serves as the final resting place for the royal family of Monaco. The bright stained glass alongside the paintings make this cathedral stand out from others you might have seen. It's free to visit and you only need 10-15 mins. We saw the cathedral and sat down for a moment to relax before heading downhill to the harbour.

#celebratewithtrip #monaco #montecarlo #palace Visit the Prince’s Palace of Monaco This is a great opportunity to see the state rooms of the Palace and learn more about the Grimaldi family and their heritage and history. The palace showcases many works of art as well as the Royal Library and Chapel. The visit shouldn’t take longer than 45 minutes so definitely worth your time. To check prices and admission times follow their website. Overall a great visit and would strongly recommend. The price is affordable as well - 10 euros or 5 euros for students .The Palace is beautiful on the inside and worth visiting. Allocate 60-90 minutes

#UnparalleledSeaview #OverseasTravel #Mediterranean Monaco is a small country located in the south of Europe, the area is probably the size of Stanley, but don’t underestimate it, it is also one of the richest countries in the world! In addition to this prestige history, it is also a European holiday destination, all because it has abundant sunshine, warm winter and cool summer, so tourists come to swim in summer and escape the cold in winter. Of course, the most popular must be this stunning sea view! As a reminder, if you have the opportunity to visit, you can choose to head to the Jardin de St-Martin, a park located in the city center where you can see the sea and the beautiful views of the city!

While Fontvieille Shopping Centre maintains some of the elegance you’d expect from a location such as Monaco, there’s plenty of more practical offerings here too. On the one hand, you’ll find the private collection of antique cars of H.S.H. Prince Rainier III. On the other, you’ll find lots of everyday shopping, there’s a large Carrefour supermarket here to buy groceries and everyday items at very reasonable prices. The McDonald’s on the 2nd floor offers some great views of the marina and its yachts, as well as the Prince's Palace of Monaco. This is a good spot to enjoy the contrast of some cheap fast food while simultaneously savouring the trappings of wealth that Monaco has become so widely known for. 🥳 #summervacation#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

Fontvieille, located in the southwest of Monaco, is the newest district in Monaco, built on reclaimed land in 1981. This district is filled with modern buildings such as hotels, apartments, and commercial facilities, and is a comfortable area with well-maintained parks and beaches. Fontvieille Port, where yachts and cruisers are moored, is sophisticated despite being a port. The night view🌃 is also very beautiful. It is close to Nice, so please make a trip there. 📍Access: About 45 minutes by bus (No. 80) from Nice Côte d'Azur Airport #Monaco

🏛️ Established in the 20th century, it is one of the world’s oldest ocean museums. 📖 King Albert I, who had a passion for the ocean and dedicated himself to exploring its mysteries, founded the Oceanographic Institute in 1906, named after himself. 💰 Ticket: €19 (Winter 2025) Further info: Check on their official website Museum Layout: -2 floor: Entirely an aquarium. -1 floor: Temporarily closed to the public. 1st floor: History exhibits and specimen displays. 2nd floor: Restaurant and children’s playground. Recommendation: If you have kids, it’s a nice place to visit. However, if you’re not particularly interested in marine life, you might not find it worth the price. Personally, I don’t think it’s that special, and the ticket price isn’t justified 😂 For those interested in history, it’s better to read about it online. #monaco #MuséeOcéanographique

The "French-style" Boulingrins Gardens offer a magnificent view of the Monte Carlo Palace. This stunning mirror reflects the majestic Monte Carlo Palace in the center. A series of fountains, pavilions, and flower beds in the center of Monte Carlo. The garden was built in 1865, at the same time as the Grand Hotel in Paris. As early as the 17th century, people played bowling games on the passage through the garden. The garden paths were very popular with British customers, who called this meeting place "green", so "Bowling-green" became Boulingrins. The garden has undergone several renovations. The last one was completed in 1989, when an underground parking lot was built, dug into the rock and covered with concrete slabs. The current garden was built on the latter, so that people can enjoy a pleasant walk between the fountains and flowers.

#beachtime Monaco, the glamorous jewel of the French Riviera, is famed for its luxurious yachts, high-end casinos, and world-class shopping. Yet, its beaches, though few, are just as enchanting and deserve a visit. While Monaco’s shoreline isn’t extensive, the pristine beaches offer an escape into serene beauty, making them the perfect combination of luxury and natural wonder. **Plage du Larvotto** The main beach in Monaco, Plage du Larvotto, stretches along the eastern side of the principality. This public beach is pebbly, but the clear, turquoise waters are inviting, perfect for a refreshing swim. Though it can get busy in summer, it remains one of the most popular spots for both locals and visitors. The surrounding area is lined with restaurants and cafes, making it a great place to relax after a swim. You can rent beach chairs and umbrellas, and there's even a lifeguard for added safety. **A Hidden Gem: The Monaco Private Beaches** While Monaco doesn’t have vast expanses of sand, the Principality is home to several private beaches tied to luxurious hotels. Places like **Monte-Carlo Beach** and **Le Méridien Beach Plaza** provide an exclusive, tranquil experience. Monte-Carlo Beach, located just outside the city center, has a stunning private sandy beach that offers perfect views of the Mediterranean. Visitors can enjoy the private pool, cabanas, and exquisite dining options by the sea. **A Stroll Along the Coastline** One of the highlights of Monaco’s coast is its scenic walking paths. A stroll from the beach to the harbor offers magnificent views of the Mediterranean and is a wonderful way to see the contrast between the city’s modern architecture and the natural beauty of the sea. The walkway is lined with palm trees and flowers, and it’s an ideal place for a sunset walk. Along the way, you can glimpse luxury yachts docked in the harbor, which adds a touch of glamour to the landscape. **Vibrant Watersports** If you’re an adventure lover, the beaches of Monaco offer a variety of water sports, including jet skiing, paddleboarding, and snorkeling. The clear waters offer fantastic visibility, so don’t forget your goggles to explore the underwater world. Some beach clubs provide rental equipment, and lessons are available for beginners. The water is calm and warm, making it perfect for these activities. **Best Time to Visit** The best time to visit Monaco’s beaches is in late spring to early fall, as the weather is warm and the seas are calm. Summer can get crowded, but it’s the time when Monaco comes alive with festivals, events, and yacht shows. For a quieter experience, early mornings or late afternoons are perfect for enjoying the tranquility before the crowds arrive. **Final Thoughts** While Monaco is known for its opulence and glittering lifestyle, its beaches offer a contrasting sense of peace and beauty. Whether you're lounging by the waves, swimming in the crystal-clear water, or enjoying the view from a luxury beach club, the coastline here is a serene escape from the bustle of the city. Monaco’s beaches may be small, but they embody the elegance and charm of this spectacular principality.

//Monaco 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐜𝐨// ° ° ° The next stop after Menton, we drove to the second smallest country in the world, Monaco. Monaco is not big, and you can basically visit it in half a day. We parked our car in the parking lot of the Oceanographic Museum, passed by the Oceanographic Museum and St. Martin's Garden, and also checked in outside the Prince's Palace. I wanted to go to the Tourist Information Center to get my passport stamped for Monaco entry, but it was closed on Monday! So we didn't go to the Monte Carlo Casino.

#August2024 Monaco Palace Square, the intersection of history and beauty. Standing in the square, you can overlook the Monte Carlo Port and the Cote d'Azur and feel the sea breeze on your face. The Louis XIV-era artillery batteries stand around, telling ancient stories. The square is open to the public free of charge and is suitable for visiting all year round. It is recommended to come in the evening to enjoy the light show of the palace and experience the unique night charm of Monaco.

If you happen to have plans to vacation in Nice, France, then Monaco is a highly recommended nearby destination. Many people confuse Morocco with Monaco. Morocco is in Africa and offers visa-free entry for us, while Monaco is adjacent to Nice, France, and can be reached by car in 20-30 minutes from Nice. · 👣How to get there: From Nice to Monaco, you can choose between taking a train or driving, both taking about the same time, around 20-30 minutes. However, I personally find driving to be more flexible. For example, if you want to visit the small town of Èze along the way, driving allows you to stop and go as you please. 🚄Train: Take the TER from Nice Requier. 🚗Driving: Navigate directly to Monte Carlo Train Station to reach the center of Monaco. · 🌟What to do: Our route: Monte Carlo Train Station - Monte Carlo Harbor - Prince's Palace - Monaco Cathedral - Oceanographic Museum - Saint Martin Gardens 👉Monte Carlo Harbor: Full of yachts, making us sigh with admiration at how many people are born to be rich. 👉Prince's Palace: There is an observation deck nearby, which is the best place to view the harbor. The changing of the guard ceremony takes place at the palace entrance every day at 11:55 AM, attracting many viewers. If you want to watch, remember to go early to secure a spot. 👉Monaco Cathedral: Quite grand, it is where Grace Kelly held her wedding and is also the burial place of her and the Prince of Monaco. 👉Oceanographic Museum: A museum right next to the sea, with a cool underwater world on the basement level. However, the overall museum area is not very large. 👉Saint Martin Gardens: A very quiet seaside garden where you can see another harbor in Monaco, also filled with yachts. The sea view is very picturesque.

Firstly what a spectacular location up on the hill. It gives some of the best views of Monaco. And then the art and paintings inside. If you wanna elevate this whole experience of witnessing another chapter in princess Grace's history. And more importantly this extraordinary cathedral. Walk here via the princess Grace's garden. It will allow you memorable views of Monaco. It was also amazing to see the prince and princess' grave site and graves of several noble personalities of monaco. This is best followed by a visit to the palace. #myhiddengems #monaco #cherryblossom2024 #summerdestinations #cathedral #100waysoftravel #europe
