When it comes to jet set destinations, they don’t come more glitzy than Monte Carlo. However, what is often overlooked in the clamor to be "seen" in Casino Square, or dine out in the harbor, is that Monte Carlo is on the doorstep of literally some of the greatest driving roads in Europe, the Alps Maritmes.
This three night package, based in the principality, includes two full days of touring on some of the greatest roads in the Alps. The first tour takes you into the Alps Maritimes directly behind Monte Carlo, driving several stages and Cols from the Monte Carlo rally (including Col de Turin), as well as a run up to the Col de la Bonnette (highest pass in the Alps) or alternatively, a run down to the Italian Riviera and the resort of San Remo. The second drive includes a run up and away from the Cote D'Azur via the beautiful Route Napoleon, passing through the beautiful town of Grasse, then onto the Gorge de Verdon (French Grand Canyon) one of the greatest natural sites in the whole of France.
Price includes
- 3 nights overnight accommodation, bed and breakfast basis
- 2 days car rental, covers full tour of 600KM, both drivers insured to drive the car
- Face to face drive walkthrough at your arrival hotel in Monte Carlo
- Touring pack with detailed driving notes / itinerary / maps
- Fully programmed GPS, with all routes and stops points (sights and lunches)
Note: The 5* package is based at the exclusive Metropole Hotel, directly on Casino Square. The 3-4* package is based at the recently opened 3* Novotel Hotel, just up above the square within the district of Monte Carlo.
