See the icons of Monaco and Monte Carlo and then explore further on your own, admiring the majestic architecture and elegance of these two gems on the French Riviera.

After departing from the pier, you will enjoy a leisurely drive along the gorgeous French Riviera to Monaco. During the walking tour that follows, you will see highlights such as the monumental Oceanographic Museum, which rises out of a sheer cliff overlooking the sea. Prince Albert I founded the museum in 1910 and its aquarium is among the best in Europe.

The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception is another icon. Prince Rainer III and Grace Kelly were married here in 1956 and both are buried in the church. The cream-colored facade was constructed with Italian granite starting in 1875 and it took more than 10 years to finish the entire cathedral, which is the largest in Monaco. Interior visits may not be possible if activities are taking place in the cathedral.

After free time to explore a bit further, you will continue on to Monte Carlo, driving along a section of road where the annual Monaco Grand Prix race has been held since 1929. You will notice the road is winding with hairpin turns, a signature of this Formula One race.

You will also see the grand Monte Carlo Casino, which opened in 1863. Designed by Charles Garnier, the architect behind the Paris Opera, the casino is an architectural masterpiece that may well be the most recognized building in Monte Carlo. Free time follows, after which you will rejoin your coach and return to Villefranche.

A scenic drive will take you from Le Havre via the Normandy Bridge to the city of Honfleur. This colorful port on the Seine estuary has remained a major center for the arts for centuries. The history of Honfleur, which has been sung by many poets and painted by famous artists, has always been tightly bound-up with the sea. Today, Honfleur offers visitors a unique heritage which can be best seen by strolling along the picturesque narrow streets lined by timber-framed houses. Leaving your coach, your guide will escort you to the slightly hilly town center overlooking the harbor. The guided walking tour of the town includes St. Catherine’s Church and its bell tower, the Salt Warehouses, the Lieutenancy, residence of the former Governor of the town and the old port. Enjoy some free time at leisure before the drive back to Le Havre.

Antibes is a very popular and pretty resort town that attracts locals and visitors alike. The old town is well preserved, with ramparts along the sea and a protective wall along the port. Spend some leisure time exploring this little gem of the French Riviera. Enjoy nice views over the Bay of Cannes during your drive. Walk by the best equipped leisure harbor of the Riviera, it lies between Fort Vauban to the north and the gate and ramparts of the Old District to the south. An orientation tour provides you with interesting information and scenic views towards the Maritime Alps and through narrow streets where flowers made their way. Your tour ends by the old market and you’ll have approximately 1 1/2 hours of free time. Enjoy the pleasures of the beach, the town or visit the Picasso Museum on your own. There are bars and cafes offering tasty snacks, restaurants of all types and prices and lots of shops. There is a cozy sand beach at the foot of the ramparts with clear blue waters.

OVERVIEW

See the new face of rapidly changing Luanda and its historical landmarks, many of which were built by the Portuguese that occupied the city during much of the colonial period. After departing from the pier, you will begin a leisurely drive through Luanda, a capital city experiencing an inspiring resurgence following Angola’s civil war, which ended more than a decade ago. The country’s oil resources have fueled much of the growth and affluence, which is evident along crescent-shaped Marginal Bay, where you will stop for photos. You will also pause briefly for photos at the Church of our Lady of Remedies, a lovely colonial church that has been renovated numerous times. You might also stop at the Iron Palace, a pre-fab structure shipped from France in the 19th century that may have been designed by Gustave Eiffel (of Eiffel Tower fame).

A photo stop will also be made at the Gothic-style church of Los Remedios which was built in 1719 as a chapel. Currently, Los Remedios Church is considered one of the most beautiful and best preserved churches of San Luis. Next, it’s on to the National Anthropology Museum where you’ll browse exhibits devoted to subjects such as Angola’s turbulent history and traditional culture. Tribal masks are particularly well represented. The capital’s oldest relic is the Portuguese-built San Miguel Fort, which in 1664 was altered into the shape of a star to better guard the entrance to the bay. You will have time to explore the fort before visiting the Agostinho Neto Mauseleum, a rocket-like tower built to honor Angola’s first president. Continuing on, you’ll drive through “Cidade Alta”, or uptown, a pleasant, airy and calm suburb nestled above the rest of the city, with several pink colonial buildings. Here you’ll have the opportunity to see the Presidential Palace as well as the Prime Minister’s office and the Ministries of Defense, Immigration, Justice, Health and the British Embassy.

Then you will drive past the beautiful Catholic Church “Igreja de Jesus”, where many important people of Angolan high society get married before heading to ‘Baixa’ or downtown - to view the houses of parliament – both new and old. After driving past many areas in the city which are due for total upgrades, and whole communities being moved, you’ll soon realize that this is truly a city that has a rapidly changing face – well on its way to regaining its mantle of yesteryear - the ‘Paris of Africa’. After this unique day of touring, you’ll make your way back to the pier, passing the National Bank of Angola – a great example of colonial architecture where you can still find the Portuguese insignia on the main entrance.
