Curator’s statement
The French Riviera holds a special place in my heart, as it perfectly blends stunning scenery with unforgettable experiences. After celebrating one of my best friend’s weddings in the breathtaking Lake Como, our adventure continued in this enchanting region. Nice offered us the ideal mix of relaxation and exploration, with beautiful beaches, charming markets and vibrant culture. The culinary delights — from fresh seafood to local specialties — made every meal a celebration. It’s a family-friendly destination where every moment feels like a new discovery, making it a place I cherish and love to share with others.

Afterward, don’t miss the chance to visit the historic Château de Nice. Climb to the top for breathtaking panoramic views of the city and coastline — it’s worth the effort! As dusk falls, treat yourself to dinner at the stunning Le Plongeoir. Enjoy exquisite cuisine while watching the sunset over the Mediterranean — an unforgettable experience awaits!
Day 4: Perfume and panache
Today, let’s venture to Grasse, the perfume capital of the world! At Molinard, you’ll be enchanted by the art of fragrance-making. Learn about the history of perfume and even create your own signature scent — how cool is that?
After your fragrant adventure, head to Cannes. Stroll along the glamorous Boulevard de la Croisette, and when hunger strikes, stop for lunch at a beachside café. Take a moment to relax in the sun and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere before soaking up the golden sands.
Day 5: Opulence awaits in Monte Carlo
For your final day, take a trip to the opulent Monte Carlo. Prepare to be dazzled by the renowned Casino de Monte-Carlo — its grandeur is truly something to behold. After exploring, enjoy a leisurely lunch at a café overlooking the harbor, taking in the luxurious surroundings.
