Since the early 19th century, the city of Nice, which overlooks the breathtaking cerulean waters of the Baie des Anges, has motivated tourists and Impressionist painters. A day journey from Monaco is well worth it to explore Nice's stunning Mediterranean setting, rich culture, and old-world charm.

The Vieille Ville (Old Town), with its bustling atmosphere and charming buildings, is a popular destination for tourists who like wandering its evocative cobblestone lanes. On the Cours Saleya in the Old Town, there is a typical Provençal market called Marché aux Fleurs, which is well-known for its flowers.

The Promenade des Anglais, which is lined with palm trees, is another must-see destination where locals and visitors can enjoy the scenery and sunshine of the French Riviera. Several top-notch art museums, such as the Musée Matisse, Musée Chagall, and Musée d'Art Moderne et d'Art Contemporain, are among Nice's most popular attractions. An easy and fun way to visit the highlights of Nice on a day trip from Monaco is with an organized tour, such as the Half-Day Nice City Tour.

Soak a day excursion to the resort town of Saint-Tropez to view the entire French Riviera and take in the Provençal-style beach splendour. Even during the busy summer months, Saint-Tropez, which was once just a little fishing village, retains its alluring small-town atmosphere while becoming a chic resort town.

The Place des Lices, a beautiful shaded area, is located at the center of the Old Town (La Ponche), which is a maze of pedestrian-only lanes dotted with shops. Shopping at authentic outdoor markets, relaxing on café terraces, and watching the elderly men of the neighborhood play pétanque are all things to do in this area (a French game similar to Italian bocce ball).

Among Saint-other Tropez's must-see attractions are the Musée de l'Annonciade, which houses an excellent collection of Impressionist art, and the evocative Vieux Port (Old Port), where the harbor is lined with café terraces and where local artists sell vibrant paintings that feature scenes from Saint-Tropez.

Saint-Tropez is about a two-hour drive from Monaco (depending on traffic). Given the distance, booking a guided trip like the Saint-Tropez Day Trip from Monaco is the most convenient way to travel there.

Eze is one of the most lovely day trips from Monaco and is only eight kilometers away. This village is beloved by visitors for its medieval charm and breathtaking coastline vistas. This charming small village sits atop a hill overlooking the Cap-Ferrat peninsula, high above the Mediterranean Sea.

One can find a 12th-century church, attractive art galleries, elegant shops, and nice cafés nestled away in courtyards by taking a stroll around the town's twisting cobblestone alleyways. The Exotic Garden, with its luxuriant flora and breathtaking views of the coastline, is a must-visit location in Eze.

The Parfumerie Fragonard (perfume factory and boutique), which is situated at the town's base, is another popular tourist destination. The beginning of a hiking track that descends to the beach is close by. Driving to Eze from Monaco takes about 20 minutes and is the most direct route.

Around Monaco, there are numerous additional medieval "villages perchés" (perched villages) scattered throughout the hilltops. Located between a ridge of the Tête de Chien and the Mont de la Bataille peaks, the old town of La Turbie is roughly a 15-minute drive from Monaco. A trip to La Turbie is worthwhile to eat at the two-star gastronomic establishment L'Hostellerie Jérôme.

The community of Peille, which is characteristically Provençal and situated on a hilltop high above the River Peillon, is located farther north of La Turbie (15 kilometers from Eze and less than a 30-minute drive). The 12th-century Romanesque church and the remains of a 13th-century fortress are two of Peille's tourist attractions.

The Chapelle des Pénitents Blancs (also known as the Chapelle Notre-Dame-des-Sept-Douleurs), a notable 15th-century church with Renaissance frescoes by Giovanni Canavesio, is located in Peillon, a picturesque village, 12 kilometers southwest of Peille.
