Craft shops, perfumeries, art, souvenirs, food, and views of the portion of the region (distant cities and such). Two things you can't miss is an art gallery with sculptures and a crystal shop called Vetterie d'Art de Gourdon. This has a local famous crystal structure of Queen Victoria on a carriage when she visited Gourdon the same way over a century ago. The village has a tourism office at the other end of it overlooking the mountains so you can figure out what you want to do. Apart from the local businesses, it's predominantly a tourist area. As far as I know, there weren't any hotels or any other form of lodging there. It's mostly these artsy and hipster galleries and shops with a few local attractions. A lot of tours from big cities have a stop here if this is a place of interest for you.

See other review. We opted to take the elevator. Long line! But moved fairly quickly. I believe 8-16 people per elevator, but sadly, I need to wait for each round trip. But I befriended the people next to us, which killed time. They even laughed at my bad jokes, lol. Worth the visit, beautiful views, etc. See pictures. Decent size after reaching the top. Ambiance - See above and my pictures. Pay toilets, see picture. Service - Self service. The elevator gate keeper was okay. Price - Free. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

This place is amazing. It has the most amazing and beautiful views of Nice. If you happen to visit…read moreNice, I highly recommend visiting this locations I recommend wearing comfortable shoes, since there are a lot of stairs and going up and down. If you're into instagram, snap chat and TikTok this location is for you. The waterfall in this place is out of world. It is one of the most beautiful waterfalls I have ever seen. Also, this location has the most gorgeous views of Nice. I highly recommend adding this chateau to your itinerary. It is a spot that you don't want to miss.

You can climb several hundred stairs or take the lift. I went with the lift because it was scorching hot and I'd been walking forever. The panoramic views of Nice and the port are amazing. Definitely worth a visit. There's also a waterfall and other things to explore up there, but I mostly just enjoyed the view and headed back because of the heat.

Beautiful old town area of Monaco and this restaurant seemed not as touristy as others in the area. Not that touristy is bad by any means!!

One of a handful of touristy spots to check out in Monaco - in a country this small this palace is…read moreconsiderably large! It is located on the elevated old city walled part of town (or really country), you really can't miss it since coming up the pedestrian walkway this imposing, regal building sprawls across the north side of a large cobblestone square. During certain times of the year (end March to mid-October) it's open to tourists for tours, but the months are fairly limited since it's very much the living and working quarters of the Monaco monarchy. Appears there are beautiful frescoes and grand staterooms you can view inside. If you happen to be there during those months tickets are €6 for adults and €3 for children, with combo tickets possible if you want to visit both the palace and the prince's royal car collection (€17 and €8 respectively, I guess someone has to pay for the upkeep of those cars and that's the tourists). Otherwise for the rest of the year you can catch a glimpse of the daily changing on the guard in front of the palace at noon. Nice views of Monte Carlo and the harbor along the old city walls by the palace.

This is a fun path or hike that you can take around the cap. If you enjoy the coast, then you'll…read morelove this. You can hike down to the water, climb some rocks, enter caves, knock on the doors of villas, or just stop and admire the water. It reminds me of Laguna Beach, Big Sur, New Zealand's Milford Sound, or maybe the Shetland Islands. It is its own thing though. Take a car, UBER, or taxi to the Plage du Soleils, but be sure it takes you to the beach and not just the bay. You will know you are in the right spot when you see the small stretch of sand and the beginning of the rocky outcropping to the south. Walk the trail and then take a cab back to Antibes or Juan les Pins.

This path is not accessible to bicycles as it has too many obstructions on it such as steps and steep inclines. Portions of the trail require you to detour onto sections of beach. It is, however, a runners delight! A challenging up and down adventure. Many portions of the trail are also very narrow which is why perhaps the ratings are low. There are many insider discoveries along its path such as restaurant La Difference which is almost as inaccessible to cars as this trail is to the general population. I get it. You might not want to take your family and baby stroller on walks along this path because it is not good for that either. If you are single or planning a long running adventure then this trail is perfect for you. Enjoy!
