Nice, the capital of the Côte d'Azur, is often called “the beauty of the Riviera”. It attracts millions of visitors every year with its clean air, mild Mediterranean climate and picturesque scenery, and it is no coincidence that many famous artists and writers found inspiration here. Among the great names who worked in Nice are Marc Chagall, Henri Matisse, Niki de Saint Phalle and Arman. Frank Harris wrote several books in Nice, including his autobiography My Life and Loves. Friedrich Nietzsche spent six consecutive winters in the city and wrote “Thus Spoke Zarathustra” here. The Russian writer Anton Chekhov finished his play “Three Sisters” while living in Nice. Nice was also declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2021.

We will take a walk around the old port and climb Castle Hill (Colline du Château), with breathtaking panoramic views of the “Bay of Angels” and the city's seafront. We will see the picturesque waterfall and the place where, according to the ancient Greeks, Nice was born.

We will then continue to the Old Town, visiting some of the most iconic sights: the Promenade des Anglais, the colourful Cours Saleya market, the Cathedral of Saint Reparata, the Paillon park and Place Masséna - the heart of modern Nice. You will have free time for lunch and walks on your own.

Afterwards we will continue to charming Saint-Paul-de-Vence - a picturesque small town perched on a high rocky hill in Provence, in the south of France, and one of the oldest towns on the French Riviera. Here the streets are narrow and cobbled and the buildings have kept their unique medieval look, which will surely take you back in time. Saint-Paul-de-Vence is a true work of art. Although the town is only 180 m above sea level, the views from its ramparts are exceptional - you can see part of Nice and the Côte d'Azur. Saint-Paul-de-Vence flourished in the early 20th century, when Parisian artists came here in search of inspiration, among them Marc Chagall, Paul Signac, Modigliani and many more. Interestingly, they dined at the La Colombe d'Or restaurant (The Golden Dove). Often they could not pay the bill and gave their works in exchange for food. Today this former inn has a rich collection of priceless works. The place is also known among the stars of world cinema, and members of the Cannes Festival jury come here for dinner during the event.

Monaco is the second smallest country in the world after the Vatican and the most densely populated. It covers only 2 km². The Principality of Monaco is a constitutional monarchy on the French Riviera, bordered only by France and the Mediterranean Sea.

Monaco is a unique destination offering a combination of interesting history, culture, modern chic and breathtaking natural beauty. Here luxury and adrenaline meet. The glamorous principality on the Côte d'Azur is famous for the world-renowned Monte Carlo Casino, the Formula 1 races and the legendary Port Hercule with the most luxurious and expensive yachts. Don't miss the other sights either, such as the historic old quarter of Monaco-Ville with the Oceanographic Museum, the Exotic Garden, Saint Nicholas Cathedral, the Prince's Palace, the Japanese Garden and more.

Our visit to the Principality of Monaco will be in two parts. The first covers the historic old quarter of Monaco-Ville and its most important sights: the imposing building of the Oceanographic Museum and Institute, the Exotic Garden and Saint Nicholas Cathedral, where the rulers of the Grimaldi dynasty rest, among them the beloved Princess Grace Kelly. Our walking tour will end in front of the Palace, which holds a vast wealth of priceless gifts presented to the rulers of Monaco over the years. You will then have free time to visit some of the sights or simply enjoy the wonderful views from the terraces.

The second part includes a drive (by coach) past the Port Hercule marina with its ultra-expensive yachts, the Formula 1 start-finish straight and the famous Louis II tunnel. Our walking tour will start in one of the most exclusive places in Europe - Monte Carlo - where we will see the famous casino of the same name with its admirable architecture, as well as the Hôtel de Paris and Café de Paris. The luxury doesn't stop there: supercars will race past you, and the prestigious boutiques of famous brands add even more glamour to this unique place.

Our excursion will continue to the medieval village of Èze, in south-eastern Provence, high above the steep Mediterranean cliffs. First we will visit the Fragonard factory, which reveals the history of the French perfume industry. The tour of the perfume factory includes a visit to the cosmetics laboratory where perfumes, soaps, creams and other cosmetics are made. Then our walking tour of Èze begins - a village that skilfully combines the charm of Provence and the French Riviera. Èze brings together two places in one - the seaside town of Èze-sur-Mer and the hilltop medieval Èze Village, which we will visit and which offers breathtaking panoramic views. These beautiful views attract writers and artists, and the charm and romance of the typical southern French villages surrounded by medieval walls make it a popular destination.

Rapallo is in the Liguria region and is the largest seaside resort on the Riviera di Levante. It was a favourite place of writers, including Ernest Hemingway and Friedrich Nietzsche (who found inspiration here for “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”). The town captivates with the aristocratic look typical of the Riviera, reflected in the architecture of the villas and grand hotels built in the 19th century. Today Rapallo is a modern destination with beautiful beaches, stylish hotels and two ports. The resort is also known for its beautiful golf course, considered one of the best in the world. Rapallo's old town is very interesting to explore, full of narrow streets, small shops and cosy cafés.

After arriving in Rapallo we will sail by boat to Portofino - a paradise that has become a true dream of the world's elite thanks to its stunning nature and incredible tranquillity. The town is often called “the pearl of Italy”. It began as a small fishing village on the Ligurian Riviera but became popular and turned into a symbol of refinement and luxury. Its name comes from the Latin “Portus Delphini”, meaning “port of the dolphins”, as there used to be many of these friendly mammals here. With its picturesque harbour surrounded by pastel-coloured houses, luxury yachts and boutiques, Portofino is a favourite holiday spot for the rich and famous.

Our walk will cross Piazza della Libertà and climb the hill to the Church of San Giorgio, where we will enjoy a wonderful panoramic view. Free time follows. We will then return by boat to Rapallo, where there will be a walking tour and free time to enjoy the town.

Antibes is a picturesque town on the French Riviera, between Nice and Cannes. With its golden beaches, charming old town with narrow cobbled streets and lively markets, Antibes combines history, culture and Mediterranean romance. It has inspired many of the world's artists. A curious fact: Pablo Picasso lived in Antibes for six months and was enchanted by it; when he left, he gave some of his works to the town. In 1966 the first museum dedicated to the great painter opened here. Besides the Picasso Museum and the impressive Port Vauban marina, the town is known for “the devil's drink” - absinthe. During our tour we will see the port, the Old Town, Antibes Cathedral, the Picasso Museum (from outside only), the Marché provençal market and more. You will then have free time.

In the afternoon we will visit Cannes - a town that radiates elegance, charm and splendour. It is a symbol of style, luxury and sophistication - the perfect destination for anyone who wants to feel the charm of the French Riviera. It is one of the most famous resorts on the Côte d'Azur, renowned for its prestigious film festival that brings together stars from all over the world. The Cannes Film Festival is held every year, usually in May, and was first organised in 1939. The town also hosts other events, such as the Riviera Carnival, the International Games Festival (bridge, backgammon, belote, chess and more), the International Festival of Acting (comedy sketches and shows), the International Luxury Travel Market and the Fireworks Festival.

Cannes also charms with its beautiful beaches, medieval quarter, the La Croisette boulevard, various museums, luxury hotels and boutiques. During our tour we will stroll along La Croisette and see the casino, the Festival Palace, where Europe's most important film award, the Palme d'Or, is presented every year, and the medieval Le Suquet quarter, and from the top of the hill we will take magnificent panoramic photos, followed by free time. Le Suquet, which means “street of mazes”, is the historic quarter of Cannes. It sits on a hill with an incredible view of the town and the marina. It is the oldest part of Cannes, with narrow cobbled streets, small art galleries, family restaurants and antique shops. A walk through Le Suquet will take us several centuries back in time. At the top of the hill stand the church of Notre-Dame d'Espérance in Provençal Gothic style and the old 12th-century castle, which today houses the Musée de la Castre.

You can visit on your own: the Museum of History and Art, with exhibits from prehistoric times to the present; the Castle Museum, with objects from the Pacific coral islands, Peruvian relics and Mayan pottery; the Maritime Museum; the Museum of Photography and the Museum of Perfume.
