You must, at least once in your life, make a getaway trip to Monaco. This mythical place, between the rocky cliffs and hairpin bends of the Alps and the blue velvet of the Mediterranean, is a dream to behold.
The Principality of Monaco offers a multifaceted world and invites you to discover it all. It is a major cultural center complete with museums, a warm welcome in the most comfortable and sumptuous hotels on the planet and a haven of gastronomy in world-famous restaurants or a light cuisine tailored to your needs. It is a world apart with its princes and princesses, its 125 nationalities and its numerous traditions.
Walk to the “Rock” to visit the old town, the cathedral, the palace of the Prince, the changing of its guard at 11:55 am and the oceanographic museum. Then, go to Monte Carlo, France to see the historic Casino and Paris hotel. You might like to follow the Formula 1 racetrack…and get a sense of the atmosphere of one of the biggest social events of the year.

You’ll learn about Monaco’s Grimaldi dynasty which has existed since 1297, the major place held by the Principality and its rich historical past. You’ll see why the world’s second smallest country is so worth a visit.
Afterwards, you will be driven to one of the nicest villages in France: the medieval perched village of Eze. There, you will look at the alleys which are over 1,500 years old, enjoy one of the most fantastic views over the sea and visit the most important perfume factory in France. You will discover
The secrets in the making of perfume and cosmetics with all the dedication and know-how devoted to the manufacture of products: perfumes, soaps and cosmetics made from the best raw materials.
