Again Monte Carlo is not really the ideal destination for youngsters as young as yours ........ they certainly won't be allowed to see inside the casino!! But you could visit the Aquarium, the Palace and the shops ........... again the local tourist office website might prove useful.
Thanks for that. I suspected it wasn't the ideal place to visit with them but I may get ideas from the Tourist Info Office. I have to wait till I'm onboard the ship to see what alternative trips they may have more suitable for the children. I'm sure we'll get fixed up with something.
We also went to Monaco/Monte Carlo. The tourist train trip is well worth doing as it allows you to see everything worth seeing in the principality. They change the guards at the palace at 10.50 am (I think) and that's worth doing. We also went to the Oceanographic Museum and the kids loved it.
Thanks for your suggestions. They sound ideal for my girls. I've also come across an indoor adventure play place called 'Fun City' but not sure where it is as website in French! It may be offered as a trip but at least it's an option for us. The train ride in Monte Carlo sounds great though. Cheers!
If the Fun City is the one at Cannes La Bocca it's in a suburb of Cannes. We got the train from St Raphael to Monaco an La Bocca was one of the stations around Cannes.
Not really a children's resort Monaco. As said before the touristic train is a good ride round. You catch it outside the entrance to the Aquarium. The Palace is just round the corner as well. The guard change is a bit long winded and typically 'Foreign' with lots of noise and some very fat soldiers! The crowd let the kids go to the front and sometimes the police will move young children inside the ropes for a better view. The palace is open to visitors and very luxurious. Just outside at the side of the square must be the best appointed public toilets in the world! Your kids are a bit young for the Grand Prix but I enjoyed walking round the course and later in the holiday driving round it in my car. Sadly mrs Hi De Hi wouldn't let me take the inside of the corner on the Mirrabo as there was traffic coming in the opposite direction
