Great way to visit Monaco in a day
This is a great way to visit Monaco in a day. Ferry is operated by the same crew and boat for the Mediterranean sight seeing tour. The crew is courteous with top notch service and makes the trip fun, providing sight seeing commentary on the cruise to Monaco and back. I'd do this as a day trip only. Once in Monaco, you are self-guided, with about 6 1/2 hours (1015-1645) to visit Monaco. The return trip departs a little after the table games open up at Monte Carlo. Best to take the train or stay in Monaco if you're looking to gamble a longer time. Otherwise outstanding for seeing the sights.

Strong recommendation
Super nice trip with the best crew, who made the trip really fun. We didn't regret a single second that we chose this trip to Monaco.
C
Great trip, great staff.
Excellent trip, definitely the best way to Monaco & Monte Carlo. It drops you off at a different harbour but it’s only a shortish walk into Monaco. We made our way back with plenty of time to spare and be sure to sit in the restaurant where the boat dropped you off. They allow you to have drinks only if you want & are very friendly. The commentary on the return journey is excellent as they point out the homes of the rich & famous. Great day out.

Just not my cup of tea
The ferry was fine. It was just a ferry ride going there and on the way back they told us about the celebrity houses. The crew was nice. They were late to the pickup by about 30 minutes which put us in a major time crunch for other activities we had scheduled. Didn't love Monaco.

Ferry from Nice to Monaco
Enjoyable ferry ride from Nice to Monaco Lots of room on the ferry We had a commentary on the way back to Nice

Nice way to visit Monaco
If buying your ticket online don't show up too early with voucher. 20 to 30 minutes prior is plenty. Too early and you'll just be inline with people going to Saint Tropez. Then you'll have to step aside and wait anyway.

Nice scenic ride. Very smooth ride. Fresh squeezed orange juice for the mimosawas great. I would do it again.

Great ride on the Cote de Azur
Great way to see the coast from the water. It was a little choppy but the captain did a good job of taking us further out to keep us all comfortable!
