After the glitz and glam of Monaco, a leisurely drive west to Toulon makes a welcome change. Rent a Mercedes V-Class, a luxury 8-seater van and set off with the family on a 2 hour scenic trip into Provence, known for its abundant seafood, olive oil, and luscious seasonal fruits.
The Mercedes V-Class is designed for high-comfort. Its sliding doors make the entry and out easier. This spacious Mercedes people carrier offers flexible seating for 8 that can be arranged in different configurations to suit your needs. Passengers can enjoy the views from the large low windows or can create a cosy lounge-style ambience by turning their leather seats to face one another. The generous boot space offers space for the luggage.
Toulon is a huge naval port, located on the shores of a sheltered bay lined with docking quays. Towering above the town is the massive Mont Faron, an imposing sight that greets you as you approach.
The Mercedes V-Class is a luxury van in a class of its own. It is both practical and posh, perfect for a group of friends or a large family. For the driver, it offers automatic transmission with the choice of choosing Manual Mode to drive using the steering wheel paddles.
The port of Toulon bustles with boats and ships of all sizes. Stroll around and enjoy the ambience of a busy commercial seaport. Then visit the Musée de la Marine, a modern seafaring museum with models, exhibits and artworks honouring the rich naval history of the town.
Toulon has stunning old walls that date back over 3000 years. You can explore and walk through the City Gate where Napoleon Bonaparte and his army departed to cross the Mediterranean to conquer North Africa.
To see panoramic views of the town and harbour, take a ride in the téléphérique du Mont Faron cable car up to the viewpoints on Mont Faron. Near the summit is the Mémorial du Débarquement de Provence, which commemorates the 1944 Allied landings of Operation Dragoon. Enjoy lunch at Le Saint Gabriel, a popular spot for both tourists and locals. After lunch, drive to the Museum of Tour Royale, a fort that was built in 1514 by King Louis XII. It hosts a fabulous naval exposition.
Drive into the rugged Provencal countryside that surrounds the town, here you will find beautiful river valleys, gorges and picturesque ancient villages scattered in the mountains. Plan on spending the night in Moustiers-Sainte-Marie.
