Italian Riviera
Tour Description :
The French and Italian Riviera in one holiday may sound decadent, but the Italian border is only 40 minutes from Nice so it would be a shame not to indulge !
Most visitors head to Ventimiglia or San Remo to see the basic markets, but they generally miss the Italian Riviera’s true gems :
- Picturesque villages steeped in history legends and traditions…
- Stunning countryside of rolling hills olive groves and vines…
- World renowned local produce…
- Spectacular architecture… Roman, Medieval, Belle Epoque…
We love introducing our clients to Liguria and helping them to live a truly Italian experience.
The first stop in Italy will be the principality of Seborga, a little village with a quirky history which we’ll share with you before you wander through its pretty streets. From Seborga you will enjoy a fantastic view on the Italian and French Riviera.
We will head downhill to the Belle Epoque seaside town of Bordighera and then after a short drive along the Nervia river, the next stop will be the exceptional perched village of Dolceacqua… a firm favorite with Claude Monet and Riviera Together! Once you’ve crossed the striking medieval bridge every street you walk down and every corner you turn will hold new surprises: amazing architecture, stunning views, artist’s galleries, a countryside path, a castle, etc…
Before leaving the village, if you wish you will have the opportunity to taste a local wines and digestives at a specialist shop.
On the trip back to France, we will take you to the coast to Menton the pearl of France and then along the Grande Corniche, which boasts the very best views of Menton, Monaco, Eze village, St jean Cap Ferrat and Nice.
