Monte Carlo, Monaco

 

Monte- Carlo, Monaco

Monte-Carlo, Monaco is world- famous for the Formula 1 Grand Prix car races, Princess Grace Kelly, Prince Albert II and Prince Rainier III, Hotel de Paris and the Place du Casino, luxury hotels, yachts, exclusive dinning experiences, great shopping and the breathtaking Mediterranean coastline. Monaco also conveys a misconception that it is only for the "rich and famous."

Monaco is an independent, sovereign state located on the Mediterranean coast between several small French villages. For 700 years, the history of Monaco has been linked to that of the Grimaldi Dynasty which in 1977 celebrated the anniversary of its accession to the Principality of Monaco.

While to many Monaco may seem like an out of reach dream (or rather out of pocket experience) it can truly be affordable as long as you plan to travel off season. It is a beautiful location rich with history, culture, diversity, excitement, beauty and should not be missed. Why not put Monaco on your dream list for 2008 and plan NOW to make it a reality? Email me for some great hotel packages, cruises with Monaco as a port of call or just some southern France/Monaco excursions. You will love every minute of the experience.
