You’ll get to see the South of France from high above – and for free! Discover the best lookout points of the French Riviera: Come to Nice, Monaco, Cannes with Anja & Aila, but also to tiny villages like Gourdon, Eze or Sainte-Agnès. Expect 10 overlooks (more or less) easy to access that offer the most spectacular views, thanks to the Alps that plunge right into the Mediterranean Sea around here.
We’ll take you from the West to the East, tell you how to get to each spot, and you’ll get an extra tip each time to find out what else you shouldn’t miss. Have fun!
Thanks for watching!
