COVID-19 measures: What can we do concretely in Beausoleil this month?

Que faire à Monaco en février ?

The increasing number of contaminations in Europe is once again forcing the governments of its member countries to review their sanitary measures. Do you want to travel to Beausoleil in February for business or personal reasons? Private driver Nice takes stock of the latest restrictions to help you organize your trip.

Our VTC service is always on duty. Thanks to a strict sanitary protocol, we make sure that our clients take no risk when boarding our vehicles. You can therefore book your private driver to go to Beausoleil on our website. But isn’t life on the spot complicated?

While France seems to be gradually moving towards a partial containment of its population with measures aimed at reducing the appearance of clusters such as the closure of covered shopping centers. However, the situation is different in the Principality of Beausoleil. Cases are rarer and hospitals are much less under stress. Consequently, the measures are lighter.

It should also be remembered that comings and goings are still allowed between France and Beausoleil, and more generally between people who are nationals of the European area. Whatever the reason, travel is therefore authorized between 6 a.m. and 7 p.m., which means outside curfew. As an exception for border workers working in Beausoleil, a negative COVID-19 test is however required. Note however that it is possible to perform the PCR test on site, before entering the city.

Shops and tourist attractions are open. However, bars are closed, and restaurants are only allowed to serve Monegasque residents, people working in Beausoleil upon presentation of a certificate and hotel guests, and at lunchtime only. If the situation does not deteriorate, you will be able to fully enjoy your stay in Beausoleil in February.

Discover the French Riviera hiking or by VTC

Port de Monaco

The French Riviera and the surroundings of Beausoleil are full of splendid places to discover. Situated between sea and mountains, this gives rise to magnificent landscapes perched at medium altitude and offering a glimpse of the blue expanse of the Mediterranean.

These landscapes are moreover visible thanks to our VTC drivers who take the roads connecting Nice and the principality during a transfer with a private driver from the airport for example.

A hike from Beausoleil to Nice ?

To enjoy the French Riviera for a few hours and its landscapes, there are several hikes along the coast. By the sea or slightly climbing in the heights, there is something for everyone.

One of the most beautiful walks connects the Beausoleil train station to the Riquier train station in Nice. After the departure from the principality, the path climbs up to La Turbie and then passes under the park of La Revère. It then turns westward to go along the park of the great corniche and passes by the Plateau de la Justice and then by the Vinaigrier.

The private driver option

The points of interest that this hike crosses are also accessible by car with one of our VTC drivers. This allows you to avoid the five to six hours of walking required for this easy but long hike, but above all to be sure to travel in comfort.

Covid-19: what will happen to the Monte-Carlo Rally in 2021?

Rallye Monte Carlo

Every year since 1911 the Monte-Carlo car rally has been held, a famous race whose start and finish are in the very heart of the principality. Rest assured, our private drivers have a much more comfortable driving experience and will transport you throughout the region.

In 2021, the dates chosen are from January 20 to 24, but the current pandemic could turn everything upside down.

Is it necessary to cancel?

The health context is unpredictable and may change at any time. The Swedish rally that normally took place in February has already been cancelled.

For the moment, the organizers of the Monte-Carlo Rally are maintaining the prestigious race.

Modified routes

But to be sure, the rally will change its route slightly. Firstly, it is important to respect the closed-door schedule established by the government until January 20 and the night stages are also modified.

Do not forget the Alex storm

Last November a storm hit the south of France and many roads have already been destroyed. These changes come on top of the current health crisis and are even impacting the journeys of our private drivers.

Before reserving your place, do not hesitate to plan a rescue plan by following the news as this rally may take place behind closed doors.

In case it is cancelled, and you are in the Principality, our private Monegasque drivers will be delighted to show you the region and its mythical roads.
