France + Liguria 2 week itinerary

Hi Reddit! Would appreciate tips and suggestions on our itinerary. My husband and I have trouble slowing down on our trips as we get ambitious and want to see everything - please help us plan an actually relaxing trip while still allowing for some exploring lol.

We like wine and food, art/museums, and an easy hike or two wouldn’t go astray. Also aiming to have at least a couple beach days. Thanks!

Day 1-3 Paris

Day 4 Paris to Beaune

Day 5 Beaune

Day 6 Beaune to Lyon

Day 7-8 Lyon

Day 9 Lyon to the French Riviera (Antibes as our base)

Day 10 Day trip: Eze, Menton, Monaco

Day 11 maybe Villefranche sur de Mer in the morning; travel to Liguria in the late afternoon (base: La Spezia)

Day 12 Day trip: Cinque Terre

Day 13 Travel day back to Nice

Day 14 Nice to Paris

Day 15 last morning in Paris, fly home in the afternoon
