The Principality of Monaco is easily
accessible via its land borders. Using the motorway system, it is possible to cover the
22 kilometres from Nice Airport to the Principality of Monaco in under 30
minutes.
Monaco is connected to France by
national roads and by the motorway network. From the Monaco exit, you
can reach the city centre in just 20 minutes.

-Exit 58 for Roquebrune Cap Martin if travelling from Italy towards France
If you prefer to take full advantage of the
landscape, you can travel via three very
scenic routes: the Basse Corniche road which hugs the coastline, the Moyenne
Corniche road via Eze-Village, or the Grande Corniche road through La Turbie
and Col d’Eze, at an altitude of 512 metres.
Access to Monaco-Ville is restricted to those whose vehicles are registered in
Monaco or the Alpes Maritimes region. In the case of the new French number
plates, only those vehicles bearing the Alpes Maritimes regional identifier,
whose owners can prove that they live in the region, will be allowed to access
Monaco-Ville. Other vehicles will need to park in the Parking
des Pêcheurs car park, from which the centre of Monaco-Ville is just a
few minutes’ walk.
Although campervans are permitted to enter the Principality,
this is not a mode of transport which is particularly well suited to the
country. Parking on the public highway is strictly prohibited. Only the Parking des Ecoles car park in Fontvieille and the Parking des Pêcheurs car park in
Monaco-Ville can accommodate such vehicles. You are advised to contact the
relevant car park office to check availability.
