Monaco insider tips include a free visit to the Saint-Martin Garden with a view of Port Fontvieille, experiencing the Marché de la Condamine for local specialties, a stroll through the Japanese Garden, a visit to Notre-Dame Cathedral with Grace Kelly's tomb, and a trip to the Dog's Head viewpoint. Exploring the old town, a swim at Larvotto Beach, and a ride on the Bateau Bus through Port Hercule are also among the insider tips.
