Eze & Monaco

Eze is a super artsy town built into the side of a hill so be prepared to walk uphill (but don’t worry, it isn’t horrible at all)
There are TONS of tiny shops with art and jewelry and local artists and designers
There are also some cafes and restaurants – I didn’t eat at any but the looked beautiful
It is a very small town so you don’t need much time, but definitely don’t skip it

To be honest, everything here is a zillion dollars. Every time I took a step, I felt like I was going to be charged (just kidding- but really, everything is ridiculously expensive). For example, I got a black coffee that cost me $17 – CRAZY
Because of $$, I pretty much only walked around and didn’t DO anything.
I walked into the Monte Carlo, but you can only go in the lobby unless you have appropriate attire to go into the casino. (There are also other places around Monaco that have dress codes to check before you go.)
Behind the Monte Carlo are amazing yachts and gardens
Hang out the the Monte Carlo plaza and just watch some of the fancy cars drive in and out — There are all the designer stores you can imagine in this area
South of the Monte Carlo along the water (about a 20-30 minute walk) you can see the prince’s palace and there are more smaller shops in this area
Other things to see: the Exotic Gardens, Sculpture path, Rose garden, Shopping center le metrople, and St Martin garden
