ITINERARY

Start your tour visiting the impressive 14th century Grimaldi Castle in Antibes for Picasso's artworks! The Grimaldi castle became Picasso’s art studio, then the Picasso Museum by 1966. 

Next head to Saint Paul de Vence to visit the Maeght Foundation. An art place with the biggest 20th century art collections in Europe!

Take your time to enjoy lunch booked by Deluxe France either in Saint Paul de Vence or Nice. 

Next reach in Nice. When Matisse arrived to Nice he was so amazed by the colors of the city that he stayed there all his life and became very productive. He rented a small narrow room at Hotel Beau Rivage on the Promenade des Anglais.

While in Nice you can visit the Matisse Museum with one  of the most important worldwide collection of his artworks! For contemporary art lovers you can go to the Mamac in Nice (Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art). And last but not least, the National Museum of Marc Chagall. The museum's collections were first constituted by the collection donated by Marc Chagall and his wife in 1972, which took up the donation of the Biblical Message of 1966 and added all the preparatory work as well as many other works.

Last but not least, visit the Renoir Museum at Cagnes-sur-Mer. Rediscover the atmosphere in which Renoir lived by the end of his life. The house-museum presents, in addition to intimate places charged with emotion (workshop, kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, garden, etc.), a collection of exceptional works, partly owned by the municipality, deposits of national and territorial museums and collections special for others.
