Barcelona

Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia, is a jewel enclosed between sea and mountains, an en plein air museum to be discovered. Catalonia is an autonomous region whose indipendence has long been a subject of debate and is still a topic that divides opinion in the country. The region has its own language, culture and history, most visible in its Roman ruins, Gothic cathedral and modernist buildings. The city of Barcelona is the emblem of this unique culture. Barcelona is the most cosmopolitan city in Spain and one of the most busiest port in the Mediterranean. In summer, the beautiful beaches of this city are a magnet for beach lovers. Beautiful beaches are not the only the reason why Barcelon is one of the most loved destionations for tourists. 

The city is a symbol of the the artistic, culinary and cultural avant-garde: visit the Sagrada Familia and the other visionary architectural works of Antoni Gaudi, La Pedrera, Casa Batlllò or Park Guell. For sports lovers, a visit to Camp Nou is not to be missed, while for art lovers here is the Picasso Museum, the Caixa Forum, the MNAC or the Miró Museum. If you want to taste the local cuisine, restaurants and bars are the right choice. They are always crowded as the sea in summer. An holiday aboard a cruise offers the opportunity to visit this beautiful city and immerse yourself in this unique atmosphere.

Montecarlo

Monte Carlo (in French Monte-Carlo, in Monegasque Monte-Carlu), sometimes referred to as Montecarlo, is the central part of the city-state of the Principality of Monaco, and constitutes one of its four traditional districts. Monte Carlo is known for its casino, beaches, skyscrapers, fashion, and for being the chosen residence of several famous personalities.

The Monte-Carlo district is bordered to the northeast by the Larvotto and La Rousse / Saint Romain districts, to the northwest by the La Condamine and Saint Michel districts, and to the north by France, now forming a single urban agglomeration with the French commune of Beausoleil.
