Ships anchor in the deep, beautiful harbor of Villefranche-sur-Mer, a jewel-box village on the French Riviera between Nice and Monaco. From here the glamour of the Côte d'Azur is at your feet: the belle-époque promenade and old town of Nice, the casino and palace of Monaco and Monte Carlo, and the perfume town of Èze perched on its hilltop. Azure water, pastel facades, and serious style.
The local coastal train from Villefranche makes it easy and cheap to DIY the Riviera — Nice one way, Monaco the other. If you only pick one, Monaco dazzles, but Vieux Nice and its market are more relaxed and authentic.
