Monaco, Monte-Carlo Casino & Old Town Panoramas
A private introduction to Monaco, from one to four hours as you wish: the Monte-Carlo casino quarter, the old town of Monaco-Ville, and panoramic views over the Mediterranean.
Overview
Whether you have one hour or four, this experience is the ideal first taste of Monaco for travelers who want to understand the principality's character quickly. The price is the same, €450 per group, however long we spend. You'll explore the Monte-Carlo casino quarter and the Place du Casino with Pacôme, then continue into the old town of Monaco-Ville, ending with panoramic views over the harbor and the Mediterranean.
A half day can be devoted to a single city or combine two: it is tailor-made either way, and the price is the same, €450 per group, whether we spend one hour or four.
Pickup on foot is available at your hotel or Airbnb. Otherwise, meet Pacôme at the Place du Casino, 98000 Monaco, in front of the casino.
