Seven hours, three villages, one driver who knows the route back to the port.

This guided shore excursion from Cannes visits Monaco, Monte Carlo, Eze and La Turbie in a small group capped at 8 people, with a professional English-speaking guide and hotel pickup included. The itinerary moves through the Medieval hilltop town of Eze (40 minutes from the port), a stop at Fragonard perfume factory, a scenic pass through La Turbie with its Trophy of the Alps, and then Monaco's old town where you walk inside the Cathedral and see the Royal Prince Palace exterior before a drive past the famous Grand Prix circuit. The tour is timed to return you to your ship within the window you provide at booking.

The Experience

You meet your guide at the cruise port and board with no more than seven other people. The drive to Eze takes around 40 minutes, and your guide stops along the way so you can photograph the village perched on the hillside above the French Riviera. Once there, you have roughly 30 minutes to climb through the Medieval streets if you want to, or stay at the viewpoint and let the landscape do the work. The stop at Fragonard comes next—a perfume factory that has been producing fragrances for three generations, so if scent matters to you, there is time to browse.

From there the route winds through La Turbie, a hillside village where the Trophy of the Alps sits as a landmark, before you head into Monaco proper. The guide takes you into the old town, where you walk inside the Cathedral and see the exterior of the Royal Prince Palace. Casino Square gets a quick stop for photos of the building and its gardens. Then comes the circuit: you drive some of the famous Monte Carlo Grand Prix route before the one-hour return journey to the ship. Because you provided your ship's name, docking time and re-boarding time when you booked, the timing is locked in—no guessing whether you will make it back.
