エズ村
フランス・ニースの郊外エズ行き観光にご参加ください。紀元前2000年の昔にすでに人々が暮らしていたと思われる村です。海抜427mという高所に位置するこの村は、「わしの巣」と呼ばれています。海の絶景、12世紀の建物、大量のサボテンがある植物園を体験したい方は是非おいでください。またエズの有名な香水ショップFragonardもご覧ください。This vantage point is a memorable addition to your port day along the French Riviera.
モナコ旧市街
Because Monaco’s harbor is relatively small, many cruise ships anchor offshore or dock in nearby ports like Villefranche-sur-Mer, with passengers transferred to Monaco by tender or short excursion. モナコと聞くと、輝き、豪華さ、同名の有名なカジノを連想する人が多いのはないでしょうか。この都市国家は富裕なライフスタイルで有名ですが、実は以外な歴史を持っている国です。また、その歴史を掘り下げてくれる人を歓迎する国でもあります。
モナコの大聖堂(聖ニコラス大聖堂)はこの国の宗教の歴史を物語っています。In modern times, this cathedral is famous for being the final resting place for Prince Rainier and his wife, the actress Grace Kelly. On a popular Monaco cruise shore excursion, you can climb the 30 steps that lead to the cathedral and see it for yourself, while marveling at the marble Episcopal Throne and brilliantly colored imagery that have inspired so many.
Additional historic sites in Monaco include the Prince's Palace, a twelfth-century Genoese fortress which is still occasionally used by Monaco’s royal family' today, and the Oceanographic Museum, which was once directed by Jacques Cousteau. Some Mediterranean itineraries even visit Monaco during the famous Monaco Grand Prix, allowing travelers to experience the city during one of the world’s most iconic Formula 1 events.
モナコのエキゾチックな庭園
歴史的名所に加えて、モナコでは地中海の自然を体験する機会も数種類提供されています。モナコ・クルーズ中の観光で体験できる有名なアトラクションの1つは、モナコ・エキゾチック庭園です。
この庭園は1933年のオープニング以来、モナコのハイライトの1つとなりました。These gardens features succulents such as cacti that were brought to Monaco from dry climates around the world including the southwestern United States, the Arabian Peninsula and South Africa. 人気の高いこの名所からは、複数の地点からモナコと地中海の絶景が見え、ある洞窟体系の中に位置する地下聖堂も見所の1つです。
