Global Travel Collection, part of Internova Travel Group, offers a one-of-a-kind curated cruise for international race enthusiasts. The exclusive sailing May 20–27 on Atlas Ocean Voyages’ newest luxury yacht cruises the coasts of France and Italy. It culminates with a front-row seat at the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix.

Atlas Ocean Voyages’ World Traveller sets sail from Nice in the glamorous French Riviera on May 20, then proceeds to Antibes and Saint-Tropez before crossing the Mediterranean to Italy. Ports of call in Italy include the historic city of Livorno, a gateway to Florence and Pisa, and the charming fishing villages of Portovenere and Portofino.

On race day, May 26, World Traveller will dock in Menton, France, about 20 minutes from Monaco, before returning to Nice the next day to end the cruise. The Grand Prix experience includes a transfer from the yacht to Monaco, a full gourmet lunch with beverages including Champagne and wine, a Q&A session with a former Formula One driver, car simulator, nail bar, chair massage, and a live band.

GTC clients will have a distinctive vantage point for watching the race, as Monaco’s elegant Princess Grace Dance Academy is transformed each year into an opulent and exclusive venue for V.I.P. Grand Prix spectators. One of the principality’s oldest buildings offers stunning views of the race circuit, including the infamous Sainte Devote corner and the port from three locations — the gardens and first- and second-floor terraces.

Review: Sushi by Scratch at Grand Hyatt Deer Valley

Husband-and-wife team Phillip Frankland Lee and Margarita Kallas-Lee made their mark by reinventing the term “hidden gem” through their surprising and intentional collection of destination restaurants. While they launched the original Scratch Kitchen in 2013, an expired lease prompted them to relocate to an unassuming strip mall in suburban Encino in 2015 and rename it Scratch Bar & Kitchen. Even at a time when the San Fernando Valley was not known for innovative 5-star dining, the Lees’ concepts gathered such a strong buzz that discerning diners cheerfully followed them “over the hill.”

Why Japan Is Best Explored by Sea with Princess

Japan is a destination that rewards repeat visits because no two regions — or seasons —  feel quite the same. One moment, you’re wandering through centuries-old geisha districts in Kanazawa. The next, you’re watching neon reflections dance across Tokyo streets long after midnight.
