Nice Airport ⇄ Menton: the journey
Menton is about 45 km from the airport. On the A8 motorway, which bypasses Nice and Monaco through the hills, the drive usually takes 45 minutes to an hour. The seafront road is more scenic but much slower, as it runs through Nice, Monaco and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin.
Old town, seafront, the Garavan district or Roquebrune-Cap-Martin: we drop you at your address, luggage included. For a trip to the airport, allow a comfortable margin; we agree on the pick-up time together.
February: the Lemon Festival
Every February, Menton's Lemon Festival (Fête du Citron) draws large crowds and some central streets are closed during the parades. If you arrive at that time, book ahead and give us your exact address: we will pick the most convenient access.
