Monaco Grand Prix
The Monaco Grand Prix (French: Grand Prix de Monaco) is a Formula One motor race held each year on the Circuit de Monaco. Run since 1929, it is widely considered to be one of the most important and prestigious automobile races in the world, alongside the Indianapolis 500, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The circuit has been called "an exceptional location of glamour and prestige. The race is held on a narrow course laid out in the streets of Monaco, with many elevation changes and tight corners as well as a tunnel, making it one of the most demanding tracks in Formula One. In spite of the relatively low average speeds, it is a dangerous place to race. It is the only Grand Prix that does not adhere to the FIA's mandated 305 kilometres (190 mi) minimum race distance. The first race in 1929, was organised by Antony Noghès under the auspices of the "Automobile Club de Monaco", and was won by William Grover-Williams driving a Bugatti. The event was part of the pre-Second World War European Championship and was included in the first World Championship of Drivers in 1950. It was designated the European Grand Prix two times, 1955 and 1963, when this title was an honorary designation given each year to one Grand Prix race in Europe. Graham Hill was known as "Mr. Monaco"[2] due to his five Monaco wins in the 1960s. Brazil's Ayrton Senna won the race more times than any other driver, with six victories, winning five races consecutively between 1989 and 1993.

DAY 1 ROME, ITALY
In this enchanting city the past and present intersect in perfect harmony. Casually intermingled among ancient ruins and majestic cathedrals are the trappings of a modern metropolis: Skyscrapers,cafes, boutiques selling designer footwear. But of course what you seek first in the heart of Rome is its breathtaking history. A good place to begin is the Vatican, with its Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica. Works by Bernini, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, and Raphael are just a few of those on display, any one of which is worth hours of contemplation. Then the ancient ruins—Colosseum, Forum, Circus Maximus. And of course the Trevi Fountain for the obligatory coins promising your return to the Eternal City.
DAY 2 BASTIA, CORSICA, FRANCE
As the principal port of Corsica, Bastia has vibrant historical neighborhoods with narrow streets and alleys between ancient shuttered buildings of the 18th century. One of the main squares is the Place du Marche, home of a morning market and the impressive 16th century Saint-Jean-Baptiste church. On the other side of the harbor sits the substantial citadel, the beautiful gardens of Jardin Romieu and the once very-elegant houses of the Terra Nova district the impressive 16th century.
DAY 3 ST. RAPHAEL, FRANCE
Boasting 30 beaches that offer water sports for every experience level, and delightful coastal footpaths for walking or hiking and leading to the volcanic mountain rage of Esterel Massif, Saint Raphael has something for every nature lover. One of the oldest resorts, Saint Raphael is very clean, well maintained, calm and perfect for a relaxed view of the Côte d’Azur. See the Church of Saint Raphael, built in the 12th century and climb the watchtower for a panoramic view across this charming town.
DAY 4 MONTE CARLO, MONACO
France’s sunniest city, located on the French Riviera, was originally a small fishing village and still is adorned by a large collection of traditional wooden fishing boats. This is the home of a group of local artisan fisherman who sell their catch daily on the pier and where Jacques Cousteau had a residence, the Villa Baobab. Shore Excursions are available to the Monte Carlo Grand Prix Practice Sessions.
DAY 5 MONTE CARLO, MONACO
Glide into port in one of Europe’s most exclusive harbors. Mingle with other privileged yachtsmen or step ashore and start walking. The glittering Grand Casino, legendary for its exotic setting on screen and off, is a must see, as is the royal family’s palace and the tomb of Philadelphia-born Princess Grace in the Cathedral. Shore Excursion are available to the Monte Carlo Grand Prix Race.
DAY 6 SANTA MARGHERITA, ITALY
Charming Santa Margherita will offer lively views and delightful bars, cafes, gelateries and restaurants along its laidback waterfront. The 17th century Villa Durazzo, now a public park with garden terraces popular for weddings and respites. Walking the low hill above the waterfront will reveal the Chiesa dei Frati Cappuccini - overgrown passages full of semi-wild cats and farther up the hill is the Church of San Giacomo with a eerily-illuminated Madonna in a rocky niche
DAY 7 PORTOFERRAIO
Pine-scented forests and miles of sandy beach await your arrival on the tranquil island of Elba. Enjoy a glass of local Moscato with the fresh catch of the day before pondering your next move. Perhaps you’ll visit the nearby countryside with its small fishing villages and dramatic mountain passes. Or see the calming beauty of Tuscan Archipelago National Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Or maybe you’ll decide to walk to the nearest beach and dip your toes into the warm Mediterranean
