ITINERARY

Your day begins with a scenic drive from Monaco to Èze, a postcard-perfect medieval village perched on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Stroll through its narrow cobbled lanes, lined with artisan boutiques and fragrant flower displays. You'll have the chance to visit the Exotic Garden, where you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of the coastline and a unique collection of succulent plants.

Next, your route leads you inland to the picturesque village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence. One of the oldest medieval towns on the French Riviera, it has long been a haven for artists and writers. Here, you'll walk in the footsteps of legends like Picasso and Chagall as you explore the winding streets, dotted with galleries, studios, and charming cafés. Take your time to discover its historical ramparts and soak in the creative atmosphere that defines the village.

Your final stop is Gourdon, a spectacular village nestled high atop a rocky promontory at 760 meters elevation. Often called the "balcony of the Côte d’Azur," Gourdon offers panoramic views stretching more than 80 kilometers along the coast. Wander its peaceful lanes, admire the stone façades of centuries-old buildings, and, if you wish, visit the Château de Gourdon, known for its remarkable gardens and historical exhibitions. 

As the sun begins to set, your driver will take you back to Monaco, bringing your day of discovery and scenic wonder to a close. It’s a final moment to reflect on the beauty of the day.
