Visit two countries in one day. Discover Menton on the French Riviera, then cross into Italy for the lively Sanremo market, scenic coastal drives and a photo stop. This full-day escape links French elegance with Italian flair.
Start in Menton, the Pearl of France, where pastel lanes, sea views and Belle Époque façades frame landmarks such as Saint Michel Basilica and the Biovès gardens. Continue along the Riviera coastline, crossing into Italy for Sanremo. Your guide leads you through the open-air market where locals shop for cheeses, cured meats, fresh produce, flowers and leather goods. There is time to enjoy lunch in a traditional trattoria by the sea and to explore Sanremo’s historic streets.
The route is flexible and designed for comfort, with photo stops at panoramic viewpoints and commentary that brings the history and daily life of both sides of the border to life. You return along the coast with practical tips for the rest of your stay on the Côte d’Azur.
