Monte Carlo Airfares

Monte Carlo Overview

By Roz Andrews

Perched on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, Monte-Carlo, the capital of the principality of Monaco, is sandwiched between the south coasts of France and Italy.

Designer boutiques line the streets and high rise apartment blocks accommodate the many celebrities and wealthy citizens who live in this tax haven.

Admire the opulent architecture of the Monte Carlo Casino and enjoy a flutter in the public areas. There are also private rooms where the rich and famous gather to gamble.

The Princess Grace Rose Garden at Fontvieille is a memorial to Princess Grace, the former Hollywood movie star and wife of Prince Rainier III of Monaco. She tragically died in a road accident in 1982. Go!
