There is not much  that compares to the the salt air on the riviera, be it the Italian one,  or the French one: Cote or Costiera.

One is guaranteed to drink  regional wines such as:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Bandol Provence premier Rose in France,  and crisp whites from Vermentino produced  along the Ligurian coastline from Ventimiglia  Cinque Terre to Luni ( Roman Archaeological site)  in Italy.

Call it what you will ;  Cacciucco Livornese, or Bouillabaisse                                                                                                                                                                                  both are considered a tasty regional plate of fresh fish served in a  tomato based broth, and  which  sets the tone for your evening , served with a crusty bread after a day of  Sun and Sea. Add in the mix a healthy walk on  a path near the sea in this case Cape Ferrat or near San Tropez or the famous Santa Margherita Ligure to Portofino, and you have a five star day. 

These areas are filled with sun lovers once schools let out for summer holidays and are where many northern Europeans vacation. . But do not be caught up in that  confluence of travelers. We suggest that you  take a ten day break a month before June ,  or after September to still find pleasant weather and fewer crowds.   Prices will not be reduced just yet, however. Not till last week in October have we seen prices decrease a tad. 

Depending on the number of days landed, we can craft a a mix of Italy and France, starting  in France ( CDG-Paris) or starting  in April  one can even fly into or out of  Nice ( NCE) on nonstops  from USA Newark on United.   This pattern allows you  to create a  semi circle between the iconic fashion centers of Paris and Milano and the two famous coastlines,  thereby  linking   both countries.

Let The Provence Concierge or The Italian Concierge show you the beautify  of  of the Mediterranean coastline in 2024,  crafting custom vacations for luxury travelers:, when you want to go, where you want to go and and at your pace and price point .
