The square is full of cafes with tables in the open air allowing for the Mediterranean sea breeze to tap upon the cheeks of their visitors. A small tower bell holds the banner of the city like it would have been in the old days.

Even tonight when we were leaving and pretty much everything in the area was closed, people were still hanging out here. Wonder what's going on, but who cares!

This fort is located about…read morea 20 min walk NE from the main train station, nearly 40 minutes by foot from the Picasso museum. It's also possible to take a cab though the last part of the journey to reach the fort is a 10 minute walk along a gravel/dirt trail up a slight slope so you can't escape at least some walking. The fort entry is only €3, which can be purchased at the small entry ticket office. Access to the top of the fort is only available when accompanied by staff, and they shared that there was a tour starting in 20 minutes in both French and English so I decided to join. There are several rooms with exhibits on the history of the fort which are available for perusal. The take you thru the various stages of building and the various uses it's served. Appreciation to the staff member who led the tour--she had a lot of energy and passion for sharing information about Fort Carre and Port Vauban to a small group of about a dozen people in both French and English, keeping the atmosphere light by cracking a few jokes. She took us around the main areas in the fort along the top of the walls and back down--an enjoyable 30 minutes! Afterwards it's optional to walk around outside on the grounds, which I did for a bit before heading back towards Antibes. Unfortunately not wheelchair accessible given the distance from main road and the stone stairs and narrow walkways in parts of the castle. Also no bathrooms are available at the fort so take that into account when planning your trip.
The views from this place is amazing! Loved the tour. Initially thought this was a castle, but it's…read moreactually a fort. This is the best spot to visit in Antibes.

You can climb several hundred stairs or take the lift. I went with the lift because it was scorching hot and I'd been walking forever. The panoramic views of Nice and the port are amazing. Definitely worth a visit. There's also a waterfall and other things to explore up there, but I mostly just enjoyed the view and headed back because of the heat.

How could that be?? Yet there it was and it was gorgeous. Painted by Hugo Bogo and installed in May 2019. The chapel had burned and they needed to put new painting there. Such a sad story but the result was new art! Be sure to have an ice cream in the square and stop in.

This is a must see if you love panoramic views! There are several ways to hike to the top and we…read moretried several. You can hike up the stairs, you can walk hills or you can take the lift. I believe there are over 200 steps so not crazy but not easy of you aren't somewhat fit. It is shady so a nice place to go when it's hot and when you get in front of the waterfall the mist off the water feels divine! The views are fantastic and different from several vantage points. Whether you want to see the boats or cruise ships in the port or downtown beaches in Nice or just the open water, your choice! This was a nice way to spend a few hours outside experiencing nature and the tranquility of the gardens. This is a great sport for all ages with stops along the way for kids.

When it gets dark the Marina looks especially good. With all the lights and reflections on the water. The huge and impressive apartement complex is just dominating here. Some like it, and some might hate it. Think what you like, but it is definitely an impressive sight and for me - especially at night - a wonderful view with the countless lights. Besides all the boats and impressive yachts in the harbour there are loads of dining options. For all kinds of budgets. On some nights there is even a night market on the street. A really nice place to be. Lively, but not overcrowded. We liked it.

That was a direct quote by the tour guide. There were a few windows overlooking the sea that were used to resist a possible attack by the sea. I admit, the outlook was spectacular. Especially seeing the breathtaking views of the sea surrounding Villefranche-sur-Mer. What surprised me most during this tour was their gardens. The surroundings are definitely seen in better days, but the garden is beautifully tended. As you make your way up there, I urge you to wear comfortable shoes. The roads are uneven at times and one lady complained she nearly sprained her ankle.

One of a handful of touristy spots to check out in Monaco - in a country this small this palace is…read moreconsiderably large! It is located on the elevated old city walled part of town (or really country), you really can't miss it since coming up the pedestrian walkway this imposing, regal building sprawls across the north side of a large cobblestone square. During certain times of the year (end March to mid-October) it's open to tourists for tours, but the months are fairly limited since it's very much the living and working quarters of the Monaco monarchy. Appears there are beautiful frescoes and grand staterooms you can view inside. If you happen to be there during those months tickets are €6 for adults and €3 for children, with combo tickets possible if you want to visit both the palace and the prince's royal car collection (€17 and €8 respectively, I guess someone has to pay for the upkeep of those cars and that's the tourists). Otherwise for the rest of the year you can catch a glimpse of the daily changing on the guard in front of the palace at noon. Nice views of Monte Carlo and the harbor along the old city walls by the palace.

Craft shops, perfumeries, art, souvenirs, food, and views of the portion of the region (distant cities and such). Two things you can't miss is an art gallery with sculptures and a crystal shop called Vetterie d'Art de Gourdon. This has a local famous crystal structure of Queen Victoria on a carriage when she visited Gourdon the same way over a century ago. The village has a tourism office at the other end of it overlooking the mountains so you can figure out what you want to do. Apart from the local businesses, it's predominantly a tourist area. As far as I know, there weren't any hotels or any other form of lodging there. It's mostly these artsy and hipster galleries and shops with a few local attractions. A lot of tours from big cities have a stop here if this is a place of interest for you.

We knew from our experience three years earlier to talk to the Latitudes Rewards concierge. This paid off as we were the first passengers off the boat that did not have a NCL shore excursion. The Port de Cannes itself is so convenient. We met Yann from Liven Up as we exited the terminal for our tour of Monaco, St. Paul de Vence and Cannes. On the way back, he dropped us off near the Red Carpet of the Cannes Film Festival. So interesting to watch as they set up for the festival that started the following day. Just an easy ten minute walk back to catch a tender to get back to the ship. The morning views from the tender were so beautiful. Nice to see all of the boats in the harbor and the beach on the walk back to the tender. A great day in the French Riviera.

We were told that when we come back at 2pm, we would get 10 Euros back in casino credit. Sadly that was not the case.
