Côte d’Azur

The elegance of the French Riviera

The sun-drenched Riviera, with the 3,000-metre Alpes-Maritimes as a spectacular backdrop, meanders along France’s rocky Mediterranean coast, past the palisades of old Monaco or the elegant Promenade des Anglais at Nice.

For more than 200 years this has been the holiday playground of Europe, the mild climate, lovely inland scenery, sophisticated entertainment, fine food and sheer style attracting visitors from around the world. 

In Nice, the old town’s winding streets, heady with the aromas of traditional Provençal cooking, complement the smart hotels, trendy cafés and formal gardens that line the sea front and eight-kilometre beach. After Paris, the city has the largest number of museums and galleries in France. Shopping ranges from major European department stores to exclusive designer boutiques. Clubs, discothèques and restaurants ensure plentiful evening entertainment.

The Principality of Monaco, perched on a rocky promontory near the Italian border, may be best-known for its Belle Epoque casino and the annual Formula 1 Grand Prix, but it has much more to offer – from appealing bistros, elegant restaurants and stylish boutiques to immaculate gardens, attractive harbours and spectacular views.
