An Incentive Itinerary for the Principality of Monaco
Day One
Your group arrives at Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport and
clears immigration and customs. Guests get the immediate thrill of
a 7-minute helicopter transfer to Monaco.
After a breathtaking journey to Monaco, the group is invited to
freshen up before the welcome cocktail reception and dinner at
the hotel.
Tonight, In the Spirit of Monte-Carlo, by Pamela Fiori, will be offered
to all guests as a welcome gift.
Day Two
This morning, your guests get better acquainted with the
Principality on an orientation tour. Fascinating sights include the
Old Town, where they will visit the Oceanographic Museum and
the Cathedral of Saint-Nicholas where Prince Rainier III married
Grace Kelly in 1956.
Your group is then free to wander the charming medieval streets
and squares before the colorful changing of the guard in the Palace
Square where the royal wedding festivities of H.S.H Prince Albert
II and H.S.H Princess Charlene took place on July 2, 2011. Lunch
is taken in a typical Monégasque restaurant where your guests
have the opportunity to savor local dishes, such as barbagiuans and
pissaladière prepared especially for them.
After lunch, the group leaves Monaco and climbs 1,500 ft. above
the sea to visit the quaint medieval village of Eze. Here, they might
also visit the perfumeries of Fragonard and create their own
personal scent with the help of an expert. Tonight’s dinner will be
at the Prince’s Private Collection of Classic Cars. Guests will be able
to walk around a hundred cars of all ages.
Tonight’s gift: Monaco-made porcelain with the royal seal.
Management Certification: The hotel receives the well-deserved
certification after 12 months of monitoring and assessing its performance
in its daily environmental management system, an initiative which is part of
Accor’s sustainable develpment program called PLANET 21.
Day Three

During the afternoon, your guests will be free to discover the
numerous attractions of the Principality, such as the New National
Museum of Modern Art (NMNM), the Exotic Garden and its
Observatory Cave which plunges close to sea level. They will be
delighted at every corner.
As night falls, a surprise awaits. To prove that you can’t go wrong
with any of Monaco’s world-class restaurants, guests will have the
opportunity to choose between several of them during a scrumptious
dine around. After dinner venues include Zelos, a dancing hot spot
with a chic bar in a contemporary décor with state-of-the-art music,
or at the famous Jimmy’z Monte-Carlo, the place to see and be seen.
Tonight, the room gift is beautiful Monaco tote bag.

The Old Town of Nice and the bustling city of Cannes, known for
its renowned film festival on the Croisette harbor, are among the
attractions.
Lunch is at leisure. Saint Paul de Vence, an extraordinary 12th
century fortified village, is the next destination. Since the 1920s,
