A trip to the glamorous French Riviera would not be complete without a visit to the elegant city of Nice. Founded by the Greeks, its winding, age-old streets have attracted artists such as Henri Matisse who resided there, Renoir, Chagall and Arman, who all were inspired by its coastline. It was also once the home of Pablo Picasso and author F.Scott Fitzgerald. While here make sure you head to the city’s old town and on to Cours Saleya, famous for its fresh market, bistros and boutiques.
2) Visit a perfumery in Côte d’Azur
With fashionable past guests including designer Coco Chanel and actresses Audrey Hepburn and Brigitte Bardot, the chic Côte d’Azur screams elegance. A health retreat in the 18th century, it has been the chosen retreat for aristocrats, artists and celebrities for centuries. Make like the jet set yourself as you cruise along its coastal roads to a perfumery, where you’ll unlock the secrets of the world-famous perfume industry.

Small but mighty, what Monaco lacks in size, it more than makes up for in glamor. It may be the world’s second-smallest country, but its yacht-filled harbor, glitzy visitors and beautiful coastal views, make it a must-see. Act like you’re heading to the Paddock Club as you enjoy a drive along part of the Grand Prix circuit here. Also, make sure you head to the city’s beautiful old town and see the Royal Palace and Monaco Cathedral, which houses the tomb of Princess Grace.

5) Visit the ancient Pont du Gard
See the ancient three-tiered Roman bridge of Pont du Gard that crosses the Gardon River. Built in the first century AD and 48.8 metres high, it was the highest bridge in the Roman empire.
