Menton
Menton is the last stop on the Côte d`azur before the Italian border. This charming seaside town offers streets shaded by fruit trees, and long stretches of sandy beach in addition to its colorful harbor with pastel mansions, stylish boutiques, and casino. The city is known for its world-class gardens, the most famous being the Jardin des Colombieres, as well as fantastic museums dedicated to the great artist and film director Jean Cocteau. With amazing restaurants and magnificent scenery,Menton really is a nice break from the hustle and bustle of Monaco and Nice.

French Riviera Hill Towns
The hilltop towns of the French Riviera are one of the most charming attractions to explore while in the South of France. These medieval villages, perched high above the sea, combine magnificent views of the jagged Mediterranean coast with charm and culture. Most were built between the 12th and 13th century and provide a rich history - their winding cobblestone streets perfectly suited for meandering about and discovering their charming boutiques, galleries, and terrace cafes. As you wander the towns, be sure to notice the medieval architecture, lovely chapels, Roman ruins, beautiful natural landscapes, and cultural attractions.
Visit St Paul de Vence, Grasse, Vence, La Colle-sur-Loup, Mougins, Le Cannet, La Gaude, Opio, Beausoleil, Eze, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, and so much more! -
Nice (French Riviera)
Nice is the capital of the French Riviera, yet far less glamorous and expensive than Cannes. It's also one of the most ancient cities, having been founded by the Greeks, who called it 'Nike' or Victory. Because of its brilliant sunshine and relaxed living, it has attracted famous artists and writers in the past. Being the best trip base on the Riviera, you can choose to explore the region or lounge in its famous cafes. But the most obvious hangout spot here is the beach. The beach in Nice consists of rocks so wear a pair of good sandals.
Explore the Promenade des Anglais, Musee Matisse, Russian Orthodox Cathedral, Cours Saleya, Castle Hill, Old Town, Place Massena, and so much more!
