One of the many advantages of life in Monaco is its proximity to a hugely diverse choice of scenery, architecture, climate and culture. France and Italy are immediate neighbours and both countries are home to some of Europe's most beautiful landscapes, not to mention a legacy of art and architecture revered the world over!
From Monaco, day or half-day visits are available with knowledgeable, good-humoured guides to an exciting choice of locations. Just sit back and soak it all in from the air-conditioned comfort of your limousine or minibus.

 | The picturesque provencale villages of Eze, Saint Paul de Vence, Grasse, Les Baux and Saint Remy. These tours can be combined with private visits to a chateau, perfumery, chapel or vineyard, as well as shopping and dining. (You are in the cradle of Italian and French haute cuisine. It doesn't get much better than this!) |
| The famous street markets of San Remo and Ventimiglia where you'll find great bargains on stylish Italian clothes, shoes and leather goods. |
| More retail therapy! Cannes and Saint Tropez on the Cote d'Azur will surely yield that item you failed to locate in one of the many beautiful boutiques of Monte-Carlo. |
| Still more retail therapy! Shop till you drop in the world capital of fashion, Milano
(sort of says it all really)
|
| Other places of interest within easy reach of Monaco by car or helicopter : Genoa, Portofino, Florence, Pisa, Arles, Avignon, Aix-en-Provence, the ski resorts (Isola 2000, Auron, Limone and Courcheval). Many have wonderful antique or brocante markets. |
