Take a trip from Nice to Monaco and Menton in a day.
Wake up early and go see both these beautiful cities in a day. Some people may want to visit both of these places in two separate trips because there is so much to see in both.
My friends and I only had 3 days in Nice so we wanted to squeeze everything into one day.
Monaco:
Take Bus 100 to Monaco for 1.50 euro one way and get off at the Office of Tourism stop. It's the 4th stop in Monaco and it drops you off at the office of tourism which is in the center of the country. You are able to collect a few maps of the city and any other information you wish to have. You are within walking distance to everything so you can start by walking to the Casino. Walk along the water toward the Port and you will be able to see the amazing boats in the port. You will get to see the famous race track in the city walking this way as well.
head to the Palais Princier to see the famous palace. You can walk through the narrow strips that are full of vendors and shops till you reach the cathedral. One of the most famous sites in Monaco is the Musee Oceanographique et Aquarium, this aquarium had a large line outside. I did not go in because it was not in my budget but it had a long line and from what people told me it must be good.
This was about it, that I saw in Monaco, it is not the entire city but it was lovely. We walked through a few parks and a long the water before we left for Menton. I ate a panini in one of the shops in the alleyways around the palace and the cathedral. My panini was 3.90 euros. It was pretty good too!
We walked back to the bus stop, Office of Tourism and waited for the next bus to Menton. We had to pay another 1.50 euro for the bus.
