Destinations — Côte d'Azur
Your Trip to the French Riviera, Designed and Booked for You
- Menton, Antibes and Monaco by coastal train
- Hilltop villages in the morning, sea in the afternoon
- A single base in Nice, or nights spread along the coast
- Cannes and Monaco avoided on event days
What to see and do
Seven flat kilometers along the baie des Anges, on foot or by bike. The beaches are pebble, the water stays clear, and a pair of swim sandals is all you need.
Cours Saleya holds the flower and produce market every morning except Monday, when the antique dealers take it over.
The covered market on cours Masséna in the morning, then the Picasso museum in the Château Grimaldi, right above the sea. The ramparts can be walked all the way to the Gravette beach.
A boat from the old port of Cannes, about fifteen minutes. Sainte-Marguerite for the fort of the Man in the Iron Mask, Saint-Honorat for the abbey and the wine the monks make.
Monaco is done on foot, and free public elevators link the port to the Rock. The changing of the guard takes place outside the palace around noon.
Ideal for

FAQ
Is the French Riviera Trip Fully Customizable?
Yes. We do not offer a fixed tour. The duration, pace, chosen base, mode of travel, villages visited, type of accommodation and restaurants are adapted to your dates, budget and the people traveling with you.
Our sample car-free Nice itinerary can be used as a starting point, but every proposal is designed around your own travel plans.
Do We Really Need to Rent a Car?
That is entirely your choice. Most coastal stops are reachable by train from Nice, without parking constraints. A car remains valuable for the hinterland and for anyone continuing a road trip, while a private driver-guide lets you see everything without taking the wheel.
We build the itinerary around the option best suited to each day, rather than the other way around.
What Can You Book for Our Trip?
Depending on the proposal you approve, we can book accommodation, trains and transfers within France, car rental, museums and visits, private guides and driver-guides, activities and selected restaurants.
All included services are clearly listed in your quotation before confirmation. International flights are not included.
How Much Does a Tailor-Made Trip to the French Riviera Cost?
The price depends on the season, number of travelers, duration, accommodation category and included experiences. A stay focused on Nice and the train does not require the same budget as a trip with a seafront hotel, private guides and pre-booked activities.
After reviewing your request, we provide a proposal and quotation suited to your priorities.
Can You Combine the French Riviera with Another Region?
Yes. The most obvious pairings remain Provence and the Verdon gorges, two hours away by road. But since Nice is linked to Paris and Lyon by both train and plane, the Riviera fits just as neatly into a journey taking in the capital, Burgundy, Alsace or Brittany.
It works as a whole trip just as well as a three- or four-day stage at the end of a longer route. We set the order of the stops and the connections so as to avoid detours and empty legs.
How Far in Advance Should We Contact You?
The earlier you contact us, the wider the choice of well-located hotels and restaurants, especially in summer and during the region’s major events. Early planning is strongly recommended for these busy periods.
We can also consider a request made closer to departure, subject to the availability that remains.
Will You Remain Available During the Trip?
Yes. You will have a dedicated contact for the services we have organized and for any difficulties that may affect your itinerary. The precise terms of this support are explained in your proposal and travel documents.
