Bike hire in Monaco

Getting high up amongst the mountain passes is one of the best ways to explore the area - Monaco is about far more than lazing on beaches and drinking rosé (although we do a fair bit of that too, just for balance). As you pedal your way through the mountains, gorges and medieval villages you’ll come across local produce such as olives, grapes, figs and lemons - some on farmland, much of it growing wild. You’ll smell the fragrant scents of lavender, eucalyptus and pine on the breeze. And, if you fall off, you’ll discover that many varieties of cactus thrive in this hot humid climate!

Most French people have at some point donned a pair of lycra shorts and mounted a bike with curly handlebars - so you’ll usually find most motorists to be courteous towards cyclists. You’ll often get a merry wave from passers-by and, particularly in this region, you’ll see many others astride the iron horse ready with a nod of camaraderie as you pass on the opposite side of the road.
