About this destination
The French Riviera – Cote d’Azur – stretches from Saint-Tropez to Menton along the Mediterranean, blending glamour with deep Provencal roots. Nice’s old town, Monaco’s harbour and Cannes’s croisiere define the grand tour.
Beyond the jet-set image, the Riviera rewards slower travellers. Village markets overflow with local produce, artists’ trails wind through hills above Eze, and the coastal path connects beaches and coves accessible only on foot.
