A unique and surprising itinerary to learn all about Menton. Meet your guide in the morning at the Menton train station, where a 4x4 (or a bus, depending on the day) will take you to a farm producing the local golden fruit par excellence, the Menton Lemon, classified IGP, recognized by the greatest starred chefs for its unique gustatory quality and sweetness!

An unusual visit to the heart of the Menton mountains to find out all about its cultivation and all the other citrus fruits, and of course the opportunity to taste all the products made from these exceptional fruits. The visit to the farm ends with a traditional high-quality lunch (selected from the best local caterers) and a tasting of limoncellos (and all citrus products).

Then, in the early afternoon, we'll head back down to the heart of the city to discover on foot the rich architecture of this city with an incredible heritage, stemming from the splendor of its past under the sovereignty of the Princes Grimaldi of Monaco, its status as an important fishing port, and then its glorious urban development during the Belle Epoque (palaces and sumptuous hotels). Palais de l'Europe, Hotel Westminster, Jean Cocteau artworks (the wedding room), Basilique Saint-Michel, the chapels of the Penitents, the squares and narrow streets of the old town, the monumental cemetery at the summit (what a wonderful view!): all essential treasures to discover with an insightful guide.

You won't really know Menton if you don't visit what makes it so special and so rich: the botanical parks where exotic plants can best acclimatize to its micro-climate, the sunniest in France.

Ask us prior if interested (depending on: the season, the day of the tour & your physical conditions), we can guide you through:

• A Botanical Garden: the most beautiful and best-maintained one, with lush vegetation, wet & dry forests, Mediterranean species & exotic fruits, a lagoon, its water lilies & bamboo groves

• Boat Ride to Italy or through Monaco (2h-3h): saving the sweetest for the end, take full advantage of the sea and the incredible light at the end of the day. The best way to end the day…
