Great way to see Monco! Easy to hop on and off and catch the next bus. We only had a short time in Monaco so we couldn't take advantage of it in Monte Carlo.

The Monaco Cathedral
Where Grace Kelly is buried.
The Monaco Cathedral (Cathedrale de Monaco), also known as Saint Nicholas Cathedral, was built in Monte Carlo around 1875 on the site of a medieval church built in the 13th century. It is in Monaco Ville, near the Oceanographic Museum. The facade of the church, in blocks of polished white stone, is full of delicate carves. You need to walk up the steps to the entrance. At the center of the cathedral is an altar, and the mosaic apse that shows the Virgin Mary holding Jesus on her lap.
There are tunnels going in and out of town...
Opening into amazing sites around the Monaco Grand Prix.
Our excursion started just outside the ship on our large luxury bus that took us on a six-hour tour from the port in Nice, France all the way to Monaco and back.
We had our own personal tour guide who gave us much information as we traveled along our long journey to our destination and explained the Monaco Grand Prix race to us.
This is the sign in the window of our bus - so we get on the right bus!
We enjoyed a guided walk through the Old Quarter and along the portion of the Grand Prix Motor circuit.
