Default Getting to Monaco in May

Any suggestions?

The Mrs and I want to head over to Monaco in May but trying to find the cheapest way of doing so.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

Danny

Hey mate,

I'm sure Lee probably knows best but a girl at work reckons flying to Nice and then getting a train along the coast to Monaco is a great way to do it - She got married out there a couple of years ago and goes once a year to see friends.

I think you'll need to save as much as possible on the travelling having spoken to her about costs of eating, drinking or sleeping somewhere lol

If you set off now you should make it on time.

Walking is very cheap!

I saw somewhere maybe on the F1 that most of the people there walk to work from over the border into Monaco. It would probably be cheaper to get a hotel outside of the principality and do as the hoards, just walk in every day and save a small fortune.

I have a place to stay thats not the issue. Just need to find a cheap way of getting there. Ideally a cheap flight but at the moment its too much

If it's anywhere near the 15th you'll never get anything cheap, it's the bloody F1 GP...

Best way would be to fly to Marseille then take the train

Default Take the train.

Best way to get there is the train, my wife did the round trip on the train and it worked out well.

Cheers,
Jim.

Its actually for the GP. The best i can find tonight is 280 return for us both. Though im sure someone somewhere can help me get it cheaper.

Fab, what would be the best price for the train from therir to monaco then? Any ideas or where to find out
