Cannes to Monaco journey: local notes and planning
From the Croisette to the Casino Square
The drive from Cannes to Monaco is about 60 kilometres and takes roughly an hour, but what people really buy is the feeling of arriving without effort. You leave a Cannes hotel or villa, travel along the Riviera in a quiet, spacious car, and step out at the door of your Monte-Carlo hotel, restaurant or meeting. This page explains the route, the timing, the best ways to use the trip, and how to book it. Whether you travel for a gala, a business lunch or a day out, your price is fixed and your chauffeur is named in advance.
The route
Almost all of the journey is on the A8 motorway, heading east past Antibes, the Nice exits and the long approach through the tunnels above Èze before dropping into the Principality. In free-flowing traffic it takes around 55 minutes. Between 7 and 9 in the morning, at the end of the working day and on summer weekends, the stretch around Nice can slow down, and we advise leaving a margin of 15 to 20 minutes.
Pick-up in Cannes
We collect you from any address in Cannes: the grand hotels of the Croisette, boutique hotels in the centre, apartments in Le Suquet, villas in Super Cannes and Mougins, the Vieux Port or a yacht berth. We also serve Cannes-Mandelieu airport and the train station. For events at the Palais des Festivals, your chauffeur will use the closest authorised pick-up point and tell you where to meet.
Where we take you in Monaco
Monaco has several distinct areas. Monte-Carlo is the centre of glamour, with the Casino Square, the Hôtel de Paris and the Opéra. Fontvieille is calmer, with a marina and a heliport.
Using the trip well
Many guests go to Monaco for a purpose: a business lunch, a gala, a shopping afternoon, a day at the harbour or a night at the casino. We can make the drive part of the experience. On the way there, stop at Èze for a coffee with a view, or continue past Monaco to Menton for lunch.
Events in Monaco and Cannes
Both Cannes and Monaco run on event calendars. In May the Film Festival and the Monaco Grand Prix come in close succession, and the roads between the two cities fill up. In March MIPIM draws business travellers to Cannes, in June Cannes Lions follows, in September the Cannes Yachting Festival and the Monaco Yacht Show take place within weeks of each other, and in December ILTM closes the year.
