French Riviera: Uniquely Chic
Narrated by Rick Steves
30 minutes; European Travel Guide
A longtime favorite escape
of EuropeÕs elite, the Riviera coastline — stretching from burly
Marseilles and the delicate cliffs of Cassis to the border of Italy — still
sparkles with yachts. In fairytale
Monaco we listen to the graceful reshuffling of
personal fortunes at the
casino. Then we follow in the
footsteps of 19th century
aristocrats along NiceÕs
promenade des Anglais, and visit the picturesque, artist hangouts of Chagall,
Matisse and Picasso.
