We were planning on seeing Aux en Provence and the Roman Aquaduct....anything that you think is a must see in the area?
You could still head to St Trop from Cassis if you travel along the A50. Drive past Hyeres, along the coast past Le Lavandou and Cavalaire-sur-Mer and you'll end up in Ramatuelle/Pampelonne/St Tropez. Coming in from that side, there's hardly any traffic.

Besides this, if you're going to Aix, i'd combine this with a trip further north to 'The Golden Triangle' in the Provence (Gordes, Menerbes, Lacoste, Bonnieux etc...). It's an amazing part of France, great roads, awesome food and incredible scenery/old towns. Whenever I'm in the South of France, I always go here for a few days.

Then there's also the Gorges du Verdon aka the Grand Canyon of France. Great for driving also.

Or, north of Nice you can go to Grasse and St. Paul de Vence. Also wonderful little French villages, which are great for sightseeing.

Seriously. There's plenty to see.

I'd visit Nice again in a heartbeat! I stayed there for a couple of nights during my road trip last summer and everyday when we went out to eat we ended up in the old quarters. Very nice with a lot of restaurants and great food! A must visit if you're in the neighbourhood!

I need to unsubscribe from this thread. Makes me want to go back

I only spent a day in Nice, in the city. I found it dirty and was probably the only time I didn't fully enjoy in France.
