engines that use LNG as their main fuel, battery technology and
fuel cells which will allow the ships to operate emissions-free
while in port – an industry first. Butler service is included for
every suite and you can expect spacious accommodation, including
aft suites with panoramic 270-degree views, plus an outstanding
array of dining options.
Renowned for its casino, its Grand Prix and its oligarch-friendly tax policies, Monte Carlo is glamour and hedonism personified, with a price tag to match. Wedged between Italy and France on the Côte d'Azur, this little principality enjoys a lovely setting, the villas and penthouses tumbling down the hillside towards the sweeping blue expanse of the Mediterranean. Most visitors won't feel the need (or be able to afford) to stay more than a day or two, but the Prince's Palace and the Oceanographic Museum are both well worth a visit. Enter the casino at your own risk...
