Greek Islands and French Riviera Two episodes of the popular travel series with Rudy Maxa. First, we island hop the Aegean to sun-drenched, upscale and exotic, Santorini on the rim of an ancient volcano. The island of Naxos offers serenity, a low-keyed pace and bargain accommodations. It's massive marble quarries and kouros sculptures were the toast of ancient Greece. We catch some R&R on trendy Mykonos, and then head to sacred Delos - an uninhabited island covered entirely with ancient ruins. Then, from Nice to St. Tropez, we drop in on the hot spots along the Mediterranean's famous Cote d'Azur. Based in lively Nice, we visit the local beaches and superb modern art museums. A short hop along the Grande Corniche leads to wealthy Monaco. Then it's on to glamorous Cannes and the lively beaches at Juan le Pins and St. Tropez. Inland, we make our own perfume in Grasse.
