The route

Thirty kilometres,
and everything can turn.

Nice Côte d'Azur Airport is the gateway to the Principality. Thirty kilometres, roughly forty minutes in normal conditions — and up to double that on a July Friday along the lower corniche.

We leave nothing to chance on this route. Your flight is tracked in real time: your chauffeur is in place before landing, at the right terminal, name board in hand. He takes your luggage, you set the tone — conversation or silence — and the route is chosen on the day according to actual traffic: the A8 motorway, the lower corniche or the middle corniche.

On arrival, we drop you as close as possible: Hôtel de Paris, Hermitage, Metropole, Monte-Carlo Bay, Fairmont, private residences or the quayside at Port Hercule. Our chauffeurs know the authorised access points of every address in the Principality.

Good to know

Before you
travel.

Journey time. Allow 40 minutes outside peak hours. Between 5 and 8 pm on weekdays, and on July–August weekends, add 20 to 30 minutes. We build that into the time we propose — you do not have to make the calculation.

The terminals. Terminal 2 handles most international flights, terminal 1 the low-cost carriers and part of the European traffic. Give us your flight number and we place ourselves correctly, without you having to check.

The return leg. This is the direction that needs the most anticipation. Monegasque regulations require a minimum of 2 hours between booking and pickup inside the Principality — book the day before for an early flight.

Peak periods. Grand Prix, Monaco Yacht Show, gala evenings: access to the Principality closes and slots go weeks in advance. See our Grand Prix page →

Frequently asked

Nice → Monaco, in plain terms.

How long is the transfer from Nice Airport to Monaco?
About 40 minutes in normal conditions, for roughly thirty kilometres. At peak times and in summer, allow 60 to 70 minutes by car — or 25 minutes by bike taxi, which traffic does not affect.
Where does my chauffeur wait?
In the arrivals area of the terminal matching your flight, holding a name board. You also receive his direct number so you can reach him the moment you step off the plane.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Nothing troublesome. We track your flight in real time once you have given us the number: the pickup shifts automatically, at no extra charge, whether you are late or early.
Do I need to book ahead for the return from Monaco?
Yes, without exception. Monegasque regulations require a minimum notice of 2 hours before any pickup located inside the Principality. For an early flight, book the day before.
Can you drop me at my hotel in Monte-Carlo?
Yes. Hôtel de Paris, Hermitage, Metropole, Monte-Carlo Bay, Fairmont: we know the access points and authorised drop-off zones of each address, as well as the valets' instructions.
How much luggage can I bring?
Up to 3 cases in a saloon, 7 in a Mercedes V-Class. Tell us the number at booking: we propose the right vehicle rather than letting you discover the problem at the baggage belt.
How is the fare set?
Calculated on the actual journey and the vehicle chosen, then confirmed at booking. No meter, no last-minute surcharge. Payment by Visa, Amex, Apple Pay or cash.
