   Walk the Circuit

   adventure Free

   Even outside race weekend, walk the 3.337km circuit through Monaco streets. Start at Casino Square (turn 1), walk through Mirabeau, down through the tunnel to the chicane, and past the swimming pool complex. These are real streets - Ayrton Senna won here 6 times, Graham Hill 5 times.

   🔄 BACKUP: Download the official Monaco GP app which has a circuit map with audio.

   Find the Royal Box Steps

   history Free

   The finish line is near Port Hercule. Monaco is the only F1 race without a traditional podium - champions stand on the royal box steps and spray champagne toward Prince Albert II. Find the steps near the pits (look for the grandstands).

   🔄 BACKUP: The F1 fan zone often has historical displays when not race weekend.

   Watch from a Yacht (Splurge)

   Optional

   adventure $$$$

   During race weekend (late May), charter a yacht in Port Hercule for the ultimate view - you'll hear the cars echo off the tunnel.

   🔄 BACKUP: Book a terrace seat at Stars'n'Bars or Quai des Artistes months in advance. Toast when the champagne sprays - the winner is directly above you.
