Eze, Monaco and Monte-Carlo Half Day Shared Tour from Nice
A medieval village, a royal principality, and the glamour of Monte-Carlo in one unforgettable morning.
This half day tour from Nice to Eze, Monaco and Monte-Carlo brings together three of the French Riviera's most iconic destinations in a single, carefully paced experience. You will travel along one of the world's most scenic coastlines, stopping at a perfume factory, a royal palace, and a legendary casino square. The tour is rated easy and suits a wide range of travellers.
The journey begins with a scenic coastal drive offering sweeping views over Villefranche Bay, Cap Ferrat, and the Bay of Millionaires. This stretch of road, lined with historic villas and turquoise water, sets the tone for the rest of the day. You arrive at Eze feeling already immersed in the landscape of the Riviera.
Perched high above the Mediterranean, Eze is a beautifully preserved medieval village with stone lanes, colourful window boxes, and panoramic sea views. A guided visit to the Fragonard Perfume Factory reveals the traditional craft of perfume-making in a setting that feels both intimate and educational. The factory visit is included and requires no prior booking.
From Eze, the tour descends to Monaco, where free time allows you to visit the Prince's Palace, pay respects at the Cathedral where Princess Grace is buried, and witness the changing of the Palace Guards at 11:55am. The route then continues to Monte-Carlo, where the Casino de Monte-Carlo and the Hotel de Paris anchor one of the most recognisable public squares in the world.
