Monaco

A tiny principality clinging on the edge of the Côte d'Azur (French Riviera), Monaco is essentially a playground of the rich. It’s one of the richest countries in Europe and the coveted host to the annual Formula One Grand Prix. At night Monaco's harbors are jammed with world's most expensive yachts.

Monaco brags a colorful history, too. The old town of Monaco-Ville is home to the glamorous royal Grimaldi family and a must see for any visitor. The town is set on a rocky outcrop extending to the Mediterranean in the west and has interesting sights such as the Prince's palace and the Oceanographic Museum.  

Each of Monaco five divisions namely, Monte-Carlo, Monaco-Ville (or Rock of Monaco), La Condamine, Fontvieille and Moneghetti has its unique charm. La Condamine is the home of the Monégasques and lies at the foot of the old town forming the harbour and port district. The newly built industrial suburb of Fontvieille is perfect for the sport enthusiast. You can enjoy your time off watching soccer at the Stade Louis II.

For the outdoorsy visitor, Moneghetti offers endless opportunities for water skiing, wind surfing, jet skiing, fishing and scuba diving. Monte-Carlo needs no introduction! Try your luck at some of the world’s best casinos and soak up the glamorous night scene.
