Discovering Lyon's hidden traboules felt like being let in on a local secret, definitely a highlight neither of us expected going in. Five cities in twelve nights did mean some fairly long travel days between stops, particularly getting from Lyon down to the Riviera.
A tenth anniversary trip needs variety and this one delivered it, from Alsatian charm in Colmar to full on Riviera glamour by the time we reached Cannes.
Ambitious as five cities in twelve nights sounds, this itinerary made every stop feel deliberate rather than rushed, ending on La Croisette's glamorous seafront exactly as the trip should.
The shopping stop built into the Lyon day turned into a long, pushy detour we hadn't asked for, and it swallowed sightseeing time we'd rather have spent in the old town. Everything else was lovely; that one felt tacked on.
La Croisette in Cannes at sunset, palms, sea and my wife's hand in mine, the perfect finale.
