You may want to rethink the car it depends on your objectives. Traveling the Corniche is a pleasure in itself. The Cathedral there where Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier are buried is a wonderful stop. It is wonderfully Romantic, the ocean is as blue as it gets, the food is outstanding. If you can drive up above Nice to Eze-le-Village, you will have views and food you'll remember for a lifetime.Įlizabeth, if you are flying out of Nice, then a day in Monaco is a must. Don't pass up the opportunity to eat gelato at Fenocchio's in Old is astounding. We loved Nice, but they aren't kidding when they tell you to buy cheap plastic beach shoes.the rocks were murder on our feet. The lavender fields seem to spread out forever.and in mid June they should be in full bloom. Given the time of year, get a GPS or good map and plot out a day trip to Mt. Arles, which my wife and I dearly loved, is close enough (45 min) for a day trip. It is a lovely little town with a fabulous market twice a week (see Rick's book for details) and it makes a superb base for day trips out into Provence. Isle sur la Sorgue is also a short drive (in the opposite direction from the Pont du Gard). Then Avignon and the Pont du Gard are a very short drive away. There must be at least a dozen car rental companies present there (incl Hertz, Avis, Alamo, Budget, etc) and they have hundreds of rental cars parked in an enormous, airport-like parking lot. Where exactly will you rent a car? I would suggest the Avignon-TGV station, which is reached by direct TGV service from Paris. I can't think of a more romantic honeymoon.
