Monaco Grand Prix: moving around the closures by limousine

The Formula 1 Grand Prix is raced through the very streets of Monaco. During race weekend, the Principality is transformed: grandstands, barriers, closed roads and huge crowds. Getting around becomes a subject in its own right.

Here is how to organise your journeys so you can relax and miss nothing of the event.

Why getting around is so tricky that weekend

The circuit occupies the harbour and part of the centre. Access routes are reorganised, parking becomes almost impossible and public transport is saturated when the grandstands fill and empty.

Many spectators stay in Nice, Beaulieu, Menton or the hinterland. Every morning and every evening, thousands of people make the same journey at the same time.

Why a booked limousine pays off

Drop-off points studied in advance

Your chauffeur knows the possible routes and accessible drop-off zones according to that year’s arrangements. He brings you as close as possible to your grandstand, terrace or boat.

A return without waiting

At the end of the sessions, there is no need to queue on a crowded platform. You agree on a meeting point and your chauffeur meets you there.

A car at your disposal

With hourly hire with chauffeur, the car stays with you for several hours or all day: lunch, reception, evening, return to the hotel, without booking each journey.

Who is it for?

Guests in a hospitality suite, team partners, companies entertaining clients, couples who have come to experience the race: all gain time and comfort. For a group, a Mercedes V-Class van carries up to seven passengers together.

Our tips for race weekend

• Book your chauffeur as soon as your tickets and hotel are confirmed: demand is very high.
• Specify the location of your grandstand or hospitality area so the drop-off can be prepared.
• Set off early in the morning: access routes fill up quickly.
• Keep your chauffeur’s number in your phone for the return.

The Grand Prix is one of the events we support every year, just like the Cannes Film Festival. Discover our dedicated service for chauffeurs for major events in Cannes and Monaco.

Organising each day of the weekend

The Grand Prix is about more than Sunday’s race. Practice and qualifying also take up the preceding days, and each day has its own rhythm. Access is busy in the morning, calmer during sessions, then very congested as the grandstands empty.

In the morning

Setting off early remains the best strategy. Your chauffeur collects you from your hotel at the agreed time and brings you close to your entry point. You arrive without hunting for parking or waiting for a crowded train.

During the day

If you change venue, for example for lunch on a terrace or a reception on board a yacht, the chauffeur takes you there as far as the open roads allow. Otherwise, he tells you the best meeting point on foot.

In the evening

The Grand Prix often continues with dinners and parties, in Monaco or along the coast. Your chauffeur brings you back whenever you wish, free from public transport timetables.

Staying outside Monaco

During the Grand Prix, many visitors stay in Nice, Beaulieu-sur-Mer, Cap d’Ail or Menton. With a chauffeur, distance becomes secondary: you enjoy a quieter hotel and reach the race without worrying about the journey. Our page private chauffeur Nice – Monaco also covers this route for the rest of the year.

In summary

During the Grand Prix, time spent in traffic is time lost from the race. A private chauffeur takes you as close as possible, waits for you and brings you back stress-free. Book now on our booking page or by WhatsApp.
