Sainte Agnes

Depart from Monaco, along the Sub Alpine Mountains to reach the medieval village of Sainte Agnes: with its breathtaking panorama, Sainte Agnes has earned its nickname “balcony of the Cote d’Azur”. At an altitude of 800 meters, perched on the hills, the village offers one of the most impressive viewpoints of the region: the Big Blue in front, Menton below, the coastline stretching as far as the eye can see, and to complete this 360° panoramic view, the first peaks of the Alpine arc.

Walk through Sainte Agnes’ photogenic ancient streets and then enjoy a fresh homemade tart with soft drinks, served on a terrace with a stunning view.

Roquebrune Cap Martin Village

Continue to Roquebrune Cap Martin, a village renowned for one of its most famous residents, Swiss born architect Le Corbusier. Stroll through this quaint village filled with small squares, fountains, vaulted passages, and fortified gates. Roquebrune offers visitors a picturesque walk among its curiosities, including the narrow Rue Pie with its close support arches, the old communal oven, and striking panoramas over Monaco.

Take in some of the greatest views of the Mediterranean Sea before beginning the scenic drive back down the hills and mountains to return to the ship.
