What Travelers Say About Monaco

Monaco is the world's second-smallest country, crammed with Formula 1 glory, yacht-lined harbours, and a casino that defines old-money opulence. It's one of the safest places on earth — gendarmeries are everywhere. Budget travellers can visit as a day trip from Nice (25 min by train).
