Itinerary

Beaches, supercars, super yachts, famous casinos, and quaint seaside towns will have you feeling like a high roller in this world famous beach destination! Monte Carlo, Nice, Cannes, Eze, Antibes are just a few of the legendary hot spots that the French Riviera has to offer in this land of the rich and famous! And whether gambling at the Casino de Monte Carlo, tanning on the beach in Cannes, or taking in the nightlife at one of Nice’s clubs, pay special attention to the people around you because you never know what celebrity you might be able to catch a glimpse of!

*Trips in February & March (1st weekend) take place during the world famous Carnival!

**Trips in May take place during the Cannes Film Festival, and the Monaco Grand Prix-Formula 1 (confirm dates for this special weekend)!

***Trip Style - This is an independent trip ideal for groups of friends, family, couples, or even for an independent-minded solo traveler. It is designed as a travel & destination package, not solely as a "group trip". You will be on group tours/activities with other travelers and in a room with other travelers if you book the "shared dorm hostel" package (if you book the "private" room package then you of course will be in your own private room). You will however, have independent time between the guided group tours/activities to explore on your own and do as you please, and will receive a detailed info packet by email with numerous recommendations for additional group activities or tours (beyond what is included), sights/museums and food/drink/nightlife info, etc. It's a great balance between guided & included tours/activities and free time so that you have plenty of time on your own to do what you want.
