French Riviera, France
Côte d'Azur

French Riviera

Nice, Cannes, Monaco and the blue Mediterranean coast

The Côte d'Azur mixes old-world glamour with beach ease. Nice has the art, Antibes has the old town and yacht harbour, Cannes has the film-festival buzz, Monaco has the casino and Grand Prix, and the villages inland — Èze, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, Grasse — offer a quieter counterbalance. It is the best place in France for a coastal base with day trips by boat and mountain.

Plan French Riviera with us

We book the tours, the château or villa, the driver and the tables — one plan, one point of contact.

Know before you go

Best time to visit

May, June and September for warm sea and fewer crowds. July and August are hot and busy; February has the Nice Carnival and lemon festival in Menton.

Getting there & around

Nice Côte d'Azur Airport is the main gateway. The coastal train is fast and scenic; we use private drivers for the hill villages and evening events.

Where to stay

Seafront hotels in Nice or Cannes, private villas in Cap d'Antibes, or village guesthouses in the hills.

Eating & drinking

Niçoise specialities, seafood on the ports, rooftop bars in Monaco and Provençal markets inland.

Local tips

  • Beaches are mostly pebble; bring swim shoes for comfort.
  • Monaco is a separate principality — carry ID if you cross by road.
  • Book yacht charters and beach clubs well ahead in July and August.
