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 :
We love introducing our clients to Liguria and helping them to live a truly Italian experience.
The first stop in Italy will be the Belle Epoque seaside town of Bordighera known as the city of palms, a charming town on the Ligurian coast. Much appreciated by the 19th century aristocracy and many artists. You will stroll in its flowered streets with its magnificent Italian architecture…
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…
On the trip back to France, we will take you to the coast to visit Menton the »Lemon City, » renowned for its annual festival and boasting the most colorful townhouses on the Riviera. Immerse yourself in its unique charm and Mediterranean atmosphere.
