Provence-Alpes-Cote-d'Azur, French Riviera or Riviera region of France has a landscape bathed in brilliant light, which inspired some of the world's great artists and writers, from Van Gogh, Renoir, Matisse and Cezanne to Picasso and from F. Scott Fitzgerald to Pagnol. The museums and galleries devoted to their work are a must for lovers of fine art.

From its herb-scented hills to its yacht-filled harbours, no other region of France fires the imagination as strongly as Provence-Alpes-Cote-d'Azur.

The area of Provence has a combination of natural beauty, a superb Mediterranean climate and is a world away from the luxurious Mediterranean resorts which lie a little over an hours drive to the South on the French Riviera. Don't leave without fragrant memories of Grasse - the perfume capital of the world.

Nice, still retaining much of its Italian influence, offers a wealth of cultural attractions along with the splendid Promenade des Anglais. Monaco, less than 1 square mile in size, is home to royalty as well as Monte Carlo and its glittering Casino. Cannes hosts numerous international festivals, is one of the most fashionable resorts on the Riviera and has many luxurious hotels and boutiques. The narrow streets of St Tropez are filled with shops and cafés leading down to the harbour packed with luxury yachts.
