Road Trip through France - Provence Day Trip 2

Trip 2 - Total distance: 260 km.

Grasse, Gourdon, le Saut du Loup, Saint-Paul de Vence, Antibes, Cannes.



Grasse is known as the "Perfume Capital of the World". It produces over two-thirds of France's natural aromas (for perfume and for food flavourings)!


A street in Grasse

Gourdon is a beautiful little town on a hilltop. It has its own naturally perfumed spring. It's a village of handicrafts, with Glass artists, Glass blowers, Painters on Silk and Enamel, Creators of perfumes, toiletry products and soaps. Perfect to stock up on souvenirs and presents.


Gourdon

A perfect spot for a picnic would be along the Loup river...


In the valley below Gourdon is the Saut du Loup, a pittoresque waterfall on the Loup river.

Saint-Paul de Vence is home to many artists due to the extraordinary quality of the light.


Saint-Paul de Vence

Time to head down to the coast for some cocktails and exciting nightlife... Antibes or Cannes? I'm not picky :)

More millionaires for Jean to choose from...


Antibes


The Port du Suquet in Cannes


And of course the famous Croisette, where the Stars come out at night...
