Nice and the French Riviera<br />
Stroll down the palm-lined Promenade des Anglais<br />
and get a taste of the Old Town during your walking<br />
tour of Nice. Soak up the scenery, from the whitewashed<br />
villas to the flower market to the emerald<br />
waters that lap Nice’s endless beaches. Enjoy an<br />
excursion to the seaside town of Eze. You’ll tour a<br />
perfume factory and watch olfactory experts concoct<br />
new fragrances. Then, visit Monaco, a tiny principality<br />
that packs wealth, royalty and the world-famous<br />
Casino Monte-Carlo into just 0.8 square miles. Pass<br />
by the Cathédrale de Monaco, where Prince Rainier<br />
wed movie star Grace Kelly, a union that ultimately<br />
sparked an influx of Hollywood stars and starlets to<br />
the French Riviera.<br />

Nice, France<br />
Barcelona<br />
See why Barcelona is an art lover’s dream city and<br />
the place where masters like Miró, Picasso and Dalí<br />
flourished. On your sightseeing tour, explore open-air<br />
plazas dotted with avant-garde gems, like the Plaza<br />
de Catalunya and Plaza España. Snap photos of the<br />
twisting spires of La Sagrada Familia and the Magic<br />
Fountain of Montjuïc, which delights with dazzling<br />
light and water shows. From atop Montjuïc Hill enjoy<br />
panoramic views of the harbor below. Here you’ll also<br />
find the 1992 Olympic stadium. Marvel at the landscaped<br />
greenery and playful Modernist mosaics on<br />
your visit to Parque Guell. Flower vendors and street<br />
performers greet you on your walking tour of the treelined<br />
Las Ramblas.<br />
Parque Guell<br />
Barcelona, Spain<br />
Cinque Terre<br />
Cinque Terre, which literally translates to “five earths,”<br />
is a cluster of towns speckled on the dramatic cliffs<br />
of the <strong>Mediterranean</strong> coast. Each of these five Italian<br />
villages—Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola<br />
and Riomaggiore, in all—has its own unique character<br />
and charm. Travel by train between the villages<br />
and take in views of dazzling aquamarine water,<br />
which makes the area popular with sunbathers and<br />
swimmers. From Monterosso’s lively markets to Vernazza’s<br />
medieval forts and Manarola’s pastel-colored<br />
edifices, there is something for everyone to discover<br />
and enjoy in Cinque Terre.<br />
