From the dramatic cliffs of the Verdon Gorge to the red carpets of Cannes, the South of France blends glamour, culture, and hidden escapes. But what is it about this region that captivates celebrities and travellers?
In this episode of Grand Voyager, Sarah Headley Hymers explores the South of France. Her journey takes her from Doha, Qatar, to the iconic Carlton Cannes Hotel, a favourite with Hollywood stars, to the historic town of Cotignac with its rock dwellings and bustling market. Sarah tries truffle cuisine at Chez Bruno, a Michelin-starred restaurant that has welcomed the likes of Brad Pitt, Al Pacino, Bill Clinton, and the Beckhams. And of course, no journey to the South of France would be complete without visiting the perfume-scented hills of Grasse.
