Guided tour #1: Touring the Best of the French Alps in one day

Duration : 1 day
Level : easy Easy
After a few minutes of driving time, you will already reach a valley of the Southern French Alps which will get more narrow and take you to a whole different world: after another half-hour, mountains, waterfalls and natural canyons will surround you.
We will drive many spectacular canyons where I will make many stops for pictures.
After driving through a wonderful small medieval village, we will reach one of the main skiing resorts of the Southern Alps.
There, we will eat some local specialties and why not, have a walk to the green lush prairies if you wish.
In the afternoon, more spectacular canyons are awaiting you, with other unique villages and after a few more stops for pictures above a breathtaking cliff, a visit of a fortified small town of the 17th century will amaze you.
There we will taste the local fruit juices and in the next village, the local sweet white wine.
A full day filled with surprises and discoveries in a unique environment will make you forget all what you already knew about the French Riviera!

This was a busy packed day but we were able to see everything we wan... Read more...
