About French Riviera

The French Riviera — the Côte d'Azur — has been seducing the wealthy and famous since the Belle Époque, and still delivers on its glamorous promise. Nice's old town and Promenade des Anglais anchor the west; Monaco's casino and Formula 1 street circuit glitter in the east. Between them, Cap Ferrat and Antibes offer the Riviera at its most quietly luxurious. The sea is an astonishing blue.

Highlights

  • Promenade des Anglais, Nice
  • Cannes Croisette and Palais des Festivals
  • Monaco Grand Prix circuit walk
  • Èze medieval village sea views
  • Antibes old town and Picasso Museum
  • Cap Ferrat peninsula and Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild
