Luxury chauffeured car service Monaco
Independent from the Republic of Genoa in 1297, Monaco is the 2nd smallest country in the world after the Vatican City. Monaco’s total area is only 1.24 square miles. Ruled by the descendant of Grimaldi family, this is a principality closely linked to France but which still is an independent nation. Monaco is part of the glamorous French Riviera. Headed by the Prince Albert of Monaco, this is one of the most affluent spot in the world. Surround by the Mediterranean Sea and France, Monaco is the place for glamour, tanning, chilling, partying, visiting and show-off. As a point of interest, Prince Albert’s mother was Grace Kelly, married to the Prince of Monaco Rainier III. She became Princess of Monaco in 1956.
No matter the purpose of your trip, you can reach Monaco by landing in Cannes or Nice airport. Then, you can choose a luxury chauffeured car service to bring you there: it takes around 45 mn. Many vehicles are available according to the number of passengers, luggage and preferences.

One of the best known areas of the principality is The Rock or Le Rocher which is a large rocky bluff. This is what we call Monaco-Ville and where the Prince lives. The palace dates from the 13th century and sits high above Monaco. If the flag is raised in the main tower, it means the Prince is at home. One of the main attractions is the changing guards at the Prince’s Palace.
Next to the Palais, you can visit the Oceanographic museum: settled 90 meters above sea level and it took 11 years to construct the foundations that stop the museum toppling to the ground. Opened in 1910, this is one of the oldest aquariums in the world. There are three aquariums: a Mediterranean, a Tropical and a Shark Lagoon.
