Nice — Monaco, by chauffeur-driven car
It is the most requested route on the Riviera: hotels in the Carré d’Or, the Grand Prix, the Rolex Masters, dinner at the Casino. Your chauffeur knows the approaches to Larvotto, Fontvieille and Monte-Carlo, and the Principality’s drop-off rules — a French private hire vehicle sets its passenger down and then leaves again, unless another booking is made.
Included in the price
- Pick-up at the exact address, at no extra charge
- Tolls, VAT and luggage
- Flight or train tracking when you start from a train station or an airport
- Child seats as an option (infant seat, child seat, booster)
- Free cancellation up to 24 h before
- Professional chauffeur, recent and fully insured vehicle

How long does the Nice — Monaco journey take?
About 30 min for 21 km by A8 and Basse Corniche, a time measured on the road route excluding traffic. At peak times and in season, allow a margin: the price does not change.
How much does a Nice — Monaco transfer cost?
From €94.10 including tax in the Economy class, for the whole vehicle and not per person. The Sedan, the First Class Van and the Standard Van each have their own price, shown before payment. The amount includes VAT, tolls, luggage and the free waiting time; it does not change once confirmed, whatever the traffic and the time of day.
Does the Nice — Monaco journey cross a border?
Yes, it crosses into Monaco. Foreign tolls are included in the price shown, just like French tolls: the amount does not change at the border. Every passenger should carry a valid identity document.
Can I book from Nice Airport?
Yes. Nice Airport is about 19 km from Monaco as the crow flies. Give the terminal when you book: your chauffeur tracks the flight and waits for you at the exit, with free waiting time for 60 minutes after landing.
Can the chauffeur pick me up at Monaco station?
Yes. Give Monaco — Monte-Carlo station as your pick-up point: the price stays the one shown, and we track your train — if you are running late, the pick-up time adjusts.
How much is a taxi from Nice to Monaco?
There is no flat taxi fare between two cities: the ride is metered at the département’s regulated rate, and the amount is only known on arrival — over 21 km, two rides can differ widely depending on the time and the traffic. Our transfer starts at €94.10 including tax for the whole vehicle: the amount is set at the time of booking, tolls, VAT and luggage included, and it does not move.
Is there a train between Nice and Monaco?
Both cities have a train station — Nice-Ville and Monaco — Monte-Carlo — and the train is still the cheapest way to travel light. It drops you at the station, not at your address: you then have a taxi or a bus to find, and the suitcases to carry. A private transfer goes door to door, at the time you choose, including early in the morning and at night.
What happens if I am running late?
If you start from an airport or a train station, we track your flight or your train and the pick-up time adjusts. At an address, 15 minutes of waiting time are free.
