San Francisco, Calif. (PRWEB) August 20, 2013
With the bays of the Mediterranean lapping against their shores, waterside cities in France as well as Spain and Italy become magical destinations for travelers in the summer months. The team at Viator.com, the leading resource for researching and booking tours and activities worldwide, has chosen a select group of tours and shore excursions that will let travelers explore this gem-box of a region – private yacht or not.
Nice and the Côte d’Azur
Known as the capital of the Côte d'Azur, Nice boasts pebbly and pristine beaches that punctuate the luxurious landscape. This popular, exclusive and edgy summer enclave can be well-explored with the help of Viator’s team of insiders who have selected the best local activities for experiencing this Mediterranean hotspot.· As hot as they come, the Ferrari Sports Car Experience from Nice gives those with passions for speed and prestige the chance to drive or be driven in an iconic red F430 F1 Spider Ferrari.
· Trade the Ferrari for two wheels and the Nice City Bike Tour. Cycle along stunning beaches, grand streets and majestic plazas discovering hidden Baroque churches, awe-inspiring Belle Époque palaces and super-cool bars and bistros.
· The Small-Group Nice Food Tour: Provencal Specialties gets travelers in touch with the local food scene and rich Italian-inspired gastronomic heritage including up to eight samplings as well as wine from the nearby Provence hills.
Beautiful in and of itself, Nice is also the perfect starting point for explorations of many neighboring towns.
· The French Riviera Small Group Day Trip from Nice includes visits to Cannes, Juan-les-Pins and Monte Carlo.
· A summer-time Mecca for the richest and the famous-est, the St Tropez Small Group Day Trip from Nice features fashion boutiques, terrace cafes and the canals of Port Grimaud – known as “Little Venice.”

· The Monaco and Eze Small Group Day Trip from Nice combines the grandeur and Grand Prix of Monte Carlo with the unsurpassed view of the Mediterranean from the cliff-top perch (1,401 feet above sea level) of the village of Eze.
The French Riviera is also a major destination for cruise lines with its pleasant climate and enviable and convenient location along the Mediterranean. Nearby ports include Cannes, Monaco and Villefranche and Viator has a selection of shore excursions that will enable cruise passengers to break away from their shipmates and have unique experiences while exploring these beautiful seaside settings.
