Villefranche-sur-Mer is a gateway to the chic city of Monte Carlo, Monaco. This petite kingdom boasts some of the world’s most exclusive shopping and a beautiful old port. The city exudes a fairy-tale aura, perhaps nowhere more elegantly than at the Prince’s Palace, where the late American actress-turned-princess Grace Kelly presided with Prince Rainier III. Monte Carlo’s medieval quarter perches on “The Rock,” an escarpment at the foot of the Maritime Alps, and offers spectacular views of the Mediterranean and the harbor lined with mega-yachts.
