Compared to the rest of the trip, Marseille felt rushed, barely enough time to properly take in Notre-Dame de la Garde before we had to move on. Our Paris hotel checkin also took over an hour on arrival day, standing around with luggage after a long flight.
Compared to the rest, Marseille felt rushed, barely enough time to take in Notre-Dame de la Garde before we had to move on to Lyon. A shame, because it deserved longer, but the Lyon finale softened the blow.
Nice eased us in with slow seafront mornings before Paris turned up the romance with an Eiffel sunset and a Seine cruise. My husband, usually restless on holiday, actually relaxed, which tells you something.
Old Lyon's hidden traboules were such a charming surprise for us as a couple.
Mona Lisa by afternoon, Seine cruise by night, this trip nailed romance completely.
Lovely anniversary trip, but the Mona Lisa was a proper crush, we barely glimpsed it over raised phones.
