The Splendors Of Grace Kelly's Monaco (1 Hour 30 Minutes)

Follow into the footsteps of Princess Grace Kelly and discover the highlights of the old town of Monaco, the world’s second smallest country.

Meet your private, fully-licensed guide at the foot of “Le Rocher”, the hill on top of which lies the old city center of Monaco. Monaco, or as some people call it, Monte-Carlo, is the second smallest country in the world after the Vatican. Follow him/her as he/she takes you through its narrow streets to the most iconic highlights.

Start your discovery by walking towards the top of the hill, and listen to your guide as he/she tells you all about the exciting history of the Principality. Not only will you have the most beautiful view on the coastline, but you will also pass by the Prince’s Palace of Monaco, where all the Princes and Princesses of Monaco have lived.

After a short walk inside the old town, discover the inside of the Cathedral, with its peculiar architecture. This is the final resting place of the American actress turned Princess: Grace Kelly.

Make your way towards the Oceanographic Museum, the third true highlight of Monaco. Acting as an active research center since it was built, the Museum was directed by the famous oceanographer Jacques Yves Cousteau for many years.

This 1.5-hour walking tour ends with an enjoyable stroll through the gardens before going back down the hill. To keep the children engaged and entertained throughout this lovely walk, they will each get a fun-filled game booklet.
