You can: take a helicoptor , and as I recall, there's an included car service trabsfer from the landing to the pier. Or take the train. Or take a cab--by far the worst option. Or take any one of several car services, probably the wisest choice. Then leave your luggage with the ship, and meander around until sailaway. Just google your way to see all of the choices.

It got us there, was pleasant, and not all that expensive. So I'm curious about why you called it the worst option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy The Wanderer Posted June 25, 2013 #4 Share Posted June 25, 2013 It was arranged by our hotel, as I recall (the taxi above). It was a comfortable van. If I was doing it straight from the airport, and money was no object, I'd do the helicopter! Supposed to be an amazing view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrain1 Posted June 25, 2013 #5 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I booked with http://www.viator.com from Monoco Cruise Port, but you can book the other direction. Highly recommended and less than a taxi for two. Rick and Martha from Kansas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wripro Posted June 25, 2013 #6 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Do the helicopter. It's an amazing experience and the views are spectacular. Ye,s it's more expensive than a taxi but will be a highlight of your trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condocat Posted June 25, 2013 #7 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Having experienced the helicopter ride some years ago, I would encourage you to do it. It's a fabulous experiance you will talk about for years to come! Whatever you decide, enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgesGal Posted June 26, 2013 #8 Share Posted June 26, 2013 We had arranged a limo from Monte Carlo to Nice train station - going on to stay in Paris. The ride was in a Mercedes limo, only the two of us, and I think it was75 or 100 eu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We took a cab a few years ago. It got us there, was pleasant, and not all that expensive. So I'm curious about why you called it the worst option. The most recent euro quotes by cab were more than the car service, much more than the train. Admittedly, about half of the helicopter. Car service has more comfortable cars, Mercedes. Prices: coptor--www.heliairmonaco.com-- 185 euroes; cab, Nice to Montecarlo waterfront,90euros; car service--e.g., guidon cars--67 euros inclusive.I don't remember the train cost, but its price is a tad illusionary, as you have to get to the train station in Nice, and from the station in Montecarlo to the pier, so awkward and ultimately not the cheapest. If you are in a suite, I suggest you opt for the helicopter--just to keep things on the same luxurious level.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robroy Posted June 27, 2013 #10 Share Posted June 27, 2013 My wife and I used " nice-airport-transfer.fr " (adding a www. at the beginning naturally!) - Alain was our driver. Check them out on Tripadvisor. He met us in the arrivals area at Nice airport - sign with our name - brought our baggage to his Mercedes van and drove us directly to our hotel in Monte Carlo. An excellent service - very personable chap - cost was 80 Euros for the trip. Would recommend him very highly. Nice to be able to step out of the airport and immediately have the next leg of your trip completely handled for you. Have a great trip!
