About this activity
We are delighted to offer you an exclusive Monaco walking tour, combining luxury yachts, glittering casinos, and over 700 years of captivating history.
We explore the world of Monaco’s legendary Formula 1 Grand Prix, uncover the fascinating story of Grace Kelly — a Hollywood icon who became Princess of Monaco — and experience the timeless glamour of Monte Carlo alongside the heritage of the royal family.
Go beyond the guidebooks and uncover intriguing secrets: why Monaco has a Prince but no King, how it became a renowned tax haven, and who resides in one of the world’s most expensive apartments.
Along the way, we discover hidden viewpoints with breathtaking panoramic views and exceptional photo opportunities. Our carefully designed route makes clever use of Monaco’s public elevators, allowing you to enjoy the country comfortably while focusing on its beauty.
