rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author littleiodine - Our last trip to Italy began in France on the French Riviera in a charming little place at the Italian frontier, Menton.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author zeecee - We've been going to the south of France for twenty years and are not the types you picture there. We like simplicity, sandy beaches, good food and ease in a resort vacation. Cannes turned us off. The town of Nice, which is slightly seedier and less...

2000-9-15 12:49am


rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author scadet1701 - MONTE CARLO:

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TRAVELJAM - During my trip to France (see my other articles), we took the train from Paris to Cannes. It was a TGV (Very fast) train, and was only 220FF for one way! (around $35 US) The length of the ride was around 6 hours.

2000-3-29 3:21pm


rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rebres - I almost apologize when I tell people what happened to me and my friends when we visited the French Riviera. For about two weeks we were pretty hardcore backpackers making up plans as we went along and finding places to sleep the same way, with...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author beerbuff - The French Rivera is actually composed of two totally different places. On the one hand you have all the glitz and glamour of St. Tropez, Monte Carlo, Cannes and Nice and on the other you have a more laid back quiet relaxed atmosphere in some of the...
