You can call a taxi by contacting the receptionist of the hotel where you are staying - in gratitude to him it is advisable to leave a little tip.
Or you can use the services of the taxi company “TaxiMonaco” (+ 33 4 8358 0894) - if you order a taxi in advance, you will be met in the arrivals hall and taken to the desired address (the cars have Wi-Fi, and you can pay not only in cash, but and MasterCard and Visa cards).
