Italian or French Riviera

Posted by on

Hi All,

i hope not because I post this in France forum then the answer would be all French Riviera ;D lolz
I don't have enough time to visit both sadly and based on what i saw from Google, the view is a bit overlapping with the beaches and ports and yachts so I need to make a choice.

if you think Italian Riviera offers more, which area should be worth visited for first timer? Cinque Terre or Portofino area or others?

if you think French Riviera offers more, I only have 2-3 spots to be chosen and one of them is definitely Monaco, which other 2 would you suggest among Nice, St Tropez, Antibes or Villefranche Sur Mer especially for first timer like me.

TIA

Hi Jen

On balance I would say the French Riviera is much nicer and more interesting as there is more variety which comes about due to the three different mountain ranges, the Alps, Esterel and les Maures, these change the landscapes, beaches and vegetation.

You have the option to pop over to Italy as well on a day trip.

Best

Hi All,

Thank You kindly for the responses

it's a good note that I'm going there during Christmas time and by that time the Italian Riviera especially Cinque Terre might be like a ghost town to tourists?? so this might be a good weigh in on which one to be chosen but i'm still deciding yet
