You step out beneath a bright Mediterranean sky and the sea immediately takes the stage — the blue of the Riviera daring you to slow down and take it in. In two hours, a private guide threads you through Monaco’s steep streets, from the sculpted façade of the courthouse to the hush of the Cathedral where the Grimaldis sleep. The Prince’s Palace looms like a living relic of Genoese stone, its square opening to a sculptural monument facing Hercule Port where yachts glint like trophies.
