Booked this as a big family trip before our elder one leaves for college and France delivered on nearly every front. Paris nights were dreamy, Nice mornings were unhurried, and Lyon's food scene won over even our fussiest eater at home. The only real hiccup was one long driving day between Marseille and Lyon that the itinerary did not prepare us for. Beyond that, honestly a lovely way to close out this chapter as a family of four.
Nice to Lyon gave us beach mornings, museum afternoons and proper food evenings all in one holiday. The only sour note was the Louvre queue in the afternoon heat, which tested everyone's patience with two tired children in tow.
Covering Nice to Lyon in eight nights meant our family got beach mornings, museum afternoons and food heavy evenings all in one trip. Only real complaint is the transfer from Marseille to Lyon dragged on far longer than we expected with cranky kids by the end.
Lyon's old traboules turned into a proper treasure hunt for our kids, wandering through hidden passageways none of us expected. Paris was magical overall though the Louvre queue with two tired children tested everyone's patience by the afternoon.
Marseille felt rushed on this itinerary and our hotel room there was noticeably smaller than we expected for a family of four. Notre-Dame de la Garde was stunning but climbing up there with young kids in the afternoon heat left everyone exhausted rather than delighted.
Watching our teenager stand completely silent before the Mona Lisa, taking it in properly rather than just snapping a photo, was such a proud parent moment. Nice gave us those slow coastal mornings we badly needed after a hectic year at work. Marseille's Notre-Dame de la Garde view left the whole family a little emotional looking out over the city. Lyon rounded things off with food our kids still mention months later.
