Paris and the French Riviera Tour
Picture France and you think of luxury, whether you’re basking in the lights of Paris or sunning yourself on the sands of the French Riviera. In this trip, we combine the elegance of Paris with the opulence of the Cote d’Azur for a vacation that’ll be nothing short of heavenly! So grab your beret and your bathing suit and take off on this trip of a lifetime!
You’ll begin your travel experience with four nights in exciting Paris, one of Europe’s most beautiful and vibrant cities. We’ll start your trip with a full-day private tour of all the city’s most spectacular sites including the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Arc de Triomphe, Luxembourg Gardens, Sainte-Chapelle, the Moulin Rouge, Montmarte, Sacre-Couer and much more. In your free time, experience France’s unique neighborhoods and consider a tour of Paris’ catacombs, a fascinating but eerie resting place for many former French citizens. Choose an optional tour to the Palace of Versailles, where you’ll be treated to the opulence of Louix XIV’s amazing creation, including the beautiful gardens.
Next, depart with your private driver for Cote d’Azur, the French Riviera. Long the stomping ground for Europe’s rich and famous, this southeast corner of France, overlooking the Mediterranean, is nothing short of spectacular, dotted with spectacular resorts filled with beautiful people. Visit towns such as Nice, Cannes, Eze, Grasse, Saint-Paul de Vence, or Antibes, indulge in sailing and other water sports, lounge on the sand, shop to your heart’s content, savor the fabulous local cuisine, and go home feeling refreshed and reinvigorated.

We wanted to drop you a note to thank you for all your help with our recent vacation to Italy. It was simply a phenomenal trip! You put together a package which was exactly what we asked for ? organized activities coupled with ample free time to explore on our own, and smaller quaint (yet elegant) accommodations.

Our trip to Paris and Provence was even better than we had imagined. Once again we gave you short notice, but you came through for us with flying colors. Everything, transportation, hotel accommodations, day tours were excellent. This was our second trip with you planning all of the details, truly amazing!
