Nice, capital of the Alpes-Maritimes department on the French Riviera, sits on the pebbly shores of the Baie des Anges. Founded by the Greeks and later a retreat for 19th-century European elite, the city has also long attracted artists. Former resident Henri Matisse is honored with a career-spanning collection of paintings at Musée Matisse. Musée Marc Chagall features some of its namesake's major religious works.

Travel to set off to see more of the French Riviera with a guided drive up the coast, following the dizzying Grand Corniche (Upper Corniche), the highest of the region's three coastal roads.

Visit the famous Fragonard perfume factory before getting back on the road, pausing in La Turbie for panoramic views as you approach Monaco. Descend to the ritzy independent principality and admire its neo-Roman Cathedral, the circular Palais de Justice, and the Oceanographic Museum. Also explore neighbouring Monte Carlo, home to the Formula One Grand Prix track and the lavish Casino de Monte Carlo.
