6-Hour Private Tour of Monaco from Antibes and Cannes

A curated private journey through hillside villages and the glamorous streets of Monte Carlo


This private Monaco tour from Cannes and Antibes takes you through some of the most scenic and historically significant destinations along the French Riviera in a comfortable, luxury minivan. The itinerary combines the medieval charm of Eze with the world-famous opulence of Monte Carlo, giving travelers a well-rounded perspective of the region in a single day.

Departing from Cannes, Antibes, or nearby areas, the route follows the Mediterranean coastline before ascending to the perched village of Eze. From its elevated position, panoramic views stretch across the sea and surrounding hills, offering a striking contrast to the urban grandeur that awaits in Monaco.

Monte Carlo rewards visitors with architectural landmarks such as the Casino de Monte-Carlo, designed by Charles Garnier, and the historic Hotel de Paris, which dates to 1864. The principality itself covers just 2 square kilometers, making it one of the most compact yet remarkable destinations in Europe.

The tour also includes a drive along the legendary Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit, a route recognized by motorsport fans worldwide. This combination of natural scenery, cultural heritage, and iconic landmarks makes the experience genuinely distinctive for first-time and returning visitors alike.

Tour Highlights

Explore the medieval hilltop village of Eze, perched above the Mediterranean with sweeping views of the coastline and sea.

Visit the Casino de Monte-Carlo, an architectural masterpiece designed by Charles Garnier and adorned with onyx columns and stained-glass windows.

Admire the facade of the legendary Hotel de Paris, a symbol of Monaco's enduring elegance since its opening in 1864.

Drive along the Monaco Grand Prix circuit, the same roads that host one of the most famous Formula 1 races in the world.

Pass by the Port Hercule marina, where luxury yachts belonging to some of the world's most affluent visitors are moored.

Stop at the Fragonard perfumery in Eze, one of the region's most celebrated fragrance houses, when open during your visit.

Travel in a private luxury minivan throughout the journey, ensuring comfort, flexibility, and personalized attention from your guide.
