Guides & Tours

Sit back and relax on this guided tour of the French Riviera.

Explore Cannes and discover its magnificent palaces along the Croisette boulevard. Take the opportunity to walk on the red carpet covering the world famous steps of the Palais des Festivals.

Follow the coast toward Antibes and discover the old town surrounded by ramparts. Antibes has become a major focal point for contemporary art, thanks to the famous Pablo Picasso, who spent a part of his life here.

Enjoy one of the most visited places in France, Saint Paul-de-Vence. Stroll along the ramparts and cobbled streets inside the walls and discover the shops and art galleries punctuating the village.

En route to Monaco, make a stop at the medieval village of Eze, one of the most picturesque sites on the French Riviera.

Go through the village of La Turbie, also called the "Monaco terrace" due to its panoramic views of the Principality of Monaco. Admire the ruins of an imposing monument (50 meters high), the 'Trophy of the Alps', dedicated to the Emperor Augustus, built 7BC on the road that linked Italy to Cimiez (the Roman Quarter Nice).

Spend the afternoon in the old town of Monaco on "Le Rocher" (the rock) overlooking the sea and harbour.

Discover the Prince's Palace and the Changing of the Guard at 11:55. In front of the Palais du Prince, you will notice the Carabinieri Barracks. Created on the 8th of December 1817, the Carabinieri are the personal guard of the Royal Family.

In Monte-Carlo, take the famous Formula One Grand Prix circuit, before reaching the Casino de Monte-Carlo.
