Summary

Begin your day with an early morning pick-up from your central Cannes hotel by private vehicle. Head east along the dramatic coastal roads, then enjoy spectacular views along the Mediterranean coast on the roughly 45-minute drive to Nice. Your itinerary can be completely customized to your preferences, so you could spend time exploring Nice’s atmospheric Old Town, browsing the renowned Marché des Fleurs, or admiring architectural highlights such as the Palais de Justice and the Opera House. Alternatively, take a stroll along the scenic Promenade des Anglais and stop for coffee (own expense) at one of the terrace cafés, looking out over the ocean. After another drive of around half an hour, arrive in the medieval village of Eze, where you’ll have time to stroll the charming cobbled lanes, pretty gardens, and castle ruins. Before you leave, take a tour of the Fragonard perfume factory and learn the secrets of one of France’s most prestigious perfume brands. Continue to nearby La Turbie, where the star attraction is the dramatic ruin of the Trophy of the Alps, a 164-foot (50 meters) tall monument dating back to 6BC. After crossing the border into Monaco, head straight for Monte Carlo, where you’ll have the rest of the day to take in the highlights at your own pace. Perhaps pose for photos by the landmark Rock of Monaco; watch the Changing of the Guards at the Prince’s Palace; admire architectural wonders such as the Justice Palace and Monte Carlo Cathedral; or visit the Oceanographic Museum (own expense). Finally, pay a visit to the world-famous Monte Carlo casino, built in 1878 by architect Charles Garnier, and drive around the legendary Grand Prix track, where the annual Formula One Monaco Grand Prix is held. After a full day taking in the highlights of the French Riviera, return to Cannes, where your tour ends with drop-off at your hotel.
