Imagine a place that that can only be dreamed of or talked about in fairytales. Hemmed in by France on three sides, this tiny city is that faces the Mediterranean takes up some of the Rivera’s best coastline.

The whole city doesn’t even cover 3 square miles and the average person can walk border to border in under an hour.

The city is broken onto four quarters, the old city which sits on a rocky foundation that extends out into the Mediterranean, La Condamine takes up the section along the port, the Monte Carlo which is the main resort area and finally the Fontvieille which is a newly constructed area which has been cultivated from the sea.

The Monaco is mainly an urban area that sits on a hilly, rugged rock bed that offers natural scenery. Katharine Hepburn once called this place ‘a pimple on the chin of France’, not due to its lack of beauty but rather the opposite.
The capital, Monte Carlo for many years has been the symbol of glitz and glamour and has been called the playground for the rich and famous.

The Monte Carlo casino which was built in 1878 is ideal if you would like to take a gamble. The casino has hosted opera, ballets and concerts for more than a decade and can hold its own as a place of history amongst the numerous museums and galleries of Monaco.

No matter the time of the year there is always something to do in Monaco. The most famous event is the spring Arts Festival which is crammed packed with entertainment, including performances from the Monte Carlo Philarmonic Orchestra and the Les Ballets.

If you would prefer something a little faster paced then it doesn’t get much faster than the Grand Prix. If you’re huge sports fan then may is the month for you.


Watching the cars navigate though the city with such speed makes for great entertainment even if fast cars aren’t really your thing.

If you want a holiday that really pampers and offer world class luxury then this is just the place for you. No matter which direction you set off in whenever you stop you are guaranteed to be amid yet another beautiful spot.

Monaco is not considered cheap by any standards but there are places available to stay if those on a tighter budget, you just have to search a little harder. Monaco is truly a place to rub elbows with some of the richest and most famous of people.

If you plan well you can have a vacation that can truly make you feel rich and famous, if only for a short time.
