Cote d’Azur and Menton

Local departure by coach or Home Connect service, then to our overnight hotel in the Paris area.

Continuing south, we travel towards the south of France and our resort of Menton for six nights.

Explore the Cote d’Azur on our optional excursion. Antibes is the most well-known resort in the region and most of the historic treasures are found in the town centre, with the pretty square and narrow streets creating a charming atmosphere.

We continue to the medieval town of Vence, which is home to many fantastic sights. Discover an oak tree dating back to 1538, a fountain built in 1822, and a spectacular Italian-style castle.

We head across the border into Italy to explore Ventimiglia before continuing to San Remo, a city on the Mediterranean coast of western Liguria. Founded in Roman times, San Remo is best known for its Russian church and colourful harbour.

Spend a day at leisure in resort. Enjoy a seafront stroll along the Promenade du Soleil, and explore the charming old quarter linking the harbour to the Baroque church of St-Michel. Be sure to take in the panoramic views of the town from Place St-Michel and the Quai Bonaparte.

Today we visit the Principality of Monaco, which is nestled between the Alps and the Mediterranean Sea. As one of the most glamorous stretches of land on the planet there's plenty to keep you busy, with museums, gardens, monuments and much more to discover.

We’ll also explore Monte Carlo, where you’ll find the world-famous Place du Casino – the gambling centre which has made Monaco the playground of the rich and famous. Head to the fabulous marina and enjoy the breathtaking vista of impressive yachts and dazzling waters, or why not tick the Prince’s Palace of Monaco off your list?

Today we visit Cannes, once a small fishing village and now a fashionable resort renowned over the world for its film festival. Discover the city’s attractive views, luxury shopping opportunities, and variety of museums and other attractions.

We’ll then travel to sophisticated Nice, with its beautiful sandy beach, palm tree-lined Promenade de Anglais, and colourful Old Town.

It is time to leave the Cote d’Azur, as we head back northwards for our final overnight stay.
