French Riviera Night Tour

Private Night Trip to Monaco and Monte Carlo from Nice or Cannes

Discover the French Riviera after dark, from the hilltop village of Eze to the glittering lights of Monaco


This private night tour of Monaco and the French Riviera offers a rare perspective on one of Europe's most celebrated coastlines, combining a scenic drive through the medieval village of Eze with an illuminated exploration of Monaco and Monte Carlo.

Departing from Nice or Cannes, you travel in a private luxury minivan along the Mediterranean coast as the sun sets behind the hills. The route follows the Corniche roads with the sea visible on one side and the rocky landscape of the Riviera on the other, creating a driving experience that is difficult to replicate during daylight hours.

The hillside village of Eze offers panoramic views over the Mediterranean that stretch for miles in every direction. From there, the journey continues into Monaco, the world's most densely populated sovereign state, where the Casino de Monte-Carlo, the Hotel de Paris, and the Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit all come alive under carefully placed floodlights.

Monaco's compact geography means that even a four-hour visit covers the principality's most iconic landmarks with time to absorb the atmosphere of this extraordinary enclave on the French-Italian border.
