The French Riviera
A rich heritage, a varied fauna and flora, a gastronomy with a thousand and one flavours, an exceptional architecure, cities which reason in the entire world and small Provençal villages nestled in the heart of the hinterland… The most visited area of France is full of culture and art, Muse of many painters, sculptors and writers.

Made of diverse landscapes, the French Riviera merges between the Mediterranean Sea, mountains and the Alps mountain, natural parks with dense vegetation, promising activities for all.

Discover the mythical and iconic places of the Côte d’Azur, such as the village of Saint-Tropez & its generation Yéyé, the mountain of Paul Cézanne, the ski resorts, the luxury villas in La Colle sur Loup, Saint-Paul-de-Vence which still retains its imprint by Simone Signoret and Yves Montand, Grasse the world capital of perfume, Cannes and its international festivals (the Film Festival, the Yachting Festival), Nice and its superb Promenade des Anglais, Saint Jean Cap Ferrat by Matisse…

The French Riviera, a place where heritage, art, luxury and nature blend subtly : a true Mediterranean way of life
