Get in The Fast Lane In Monte Carlo

If you want to mingle with some of the richest people in the world then a trip to Monte Carlo in the tiny Principality of Monaco is something to add to your list, tourists from India can get to Monaco with a Schengen visa from France, but as there is no airport in Monaco, you can fly from Nice or Paris, get the train from France, or if you have the money, take a cruise there or even show up in your own luxury yacht. Monaco is not a member of the European Union but it has a free border crossing from France and has the Euro as its currency. And Monégasques are lucky enough to not pay any taxes, only 20% of the population of Monaco are actually born there, the rest are in the main from France. The local language, also called Monégasque is an intoxicating blend of Italian and French.

Monaco has a rugged mountain environment surrounding a beautiful shoreline where the superrich have their yachts berthed and this combined with its no taxation makes it attract the wealthy, as well as its sporting events such as the Tennis Masters and the Formula 1 Grand Prix.
