Welcome to where the rich and famous spend summers and winters in France. The French Riviera (Cote d'Azur) is the Mediterranean coast of southeastern France. It includes glamorous beach resorts in recognizable places such as Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Nice and independent Monaco. Enjoying a mild and sunny climate all year round, this pleasant area offers no shortage of sites to discover and people to see.

Not surprisingly, the French Riviera has been the site of many famous movies and TV series such as To Catch a Thief, Love Actually, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Never say Never Again, Grace of Monaco and dozens more. Many famous actors have homes on the French Riviera and in this Webinar tour, we will tell you where some of them have lived. But we'll do more than talk about where the rich and famous have stayed. In total, Lynda and D'Arcy have spent over six months in the Riviera area and we know it well. This Webinar tour will guide you to some of the loveliest areas where your wallet won't be under attack and where you can enjoy some of the tranquility of this otherwise busy region.

This area is great for cycling with gentle rides or up-the-mountain excursions that will challenge any rider. But don't worry if you aren't a cyclist; we will tell you of other ways to get around. Although the French Riviera is part of Provence, we will focus this Webinar tour on Saint-Tropez to the Italian border. For the eastern part of Provence, you may want to see our 7 Days in Provence Webinar tour and turn your vacation into two weeks of adventures, wine, food and fun. If you are flying into Paris, you could also combine this tour with our  7 Days in Paris Webinar tour.
