The taxi ride from Menton to Monaco is one of the shortest and most charming on the French Riviera. Just 10 kilometres separate the Pearl of France from the Principality, yet these few minutes pack an extraordinary density of Mediterranean scenery. Menton is world-famous for its IGP-certified lemons and the spectacular Lemon Festival each February-March. Its baroque old town, crowned by the Saint-Michel basilica, slopes down to a lively marina. Monaco, meanwhile, concentrates luxury on just 2 km²: the Monte Carlo Casino by Charles Garnier, the Prince's Palace, the Oceanographic Museum perched on cliffs, and the most prestigious Formula 1 circuit in the world. Between them lies Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, a medieval village above the cape where Le Corbusier and Eileen Gray left their architectural mark.

Specific tips for the Menton → Monaco route
This journey is so short that a taxi is often more practical than waiting for a bus. During the Monaco Grand Prix (late May), many streets are closed — the driver knows alternative routes. For a Casino evening, a taxi from Menton means no parking worries. Roquebrune-Cap-Martin is worth a stop: its medieval village (10th century) is one of the oldest on the Riviera.
