Sure,
Trains, Planes & Automobiles
will get you most places, but if you're trolling for something different, consider cruising.
The Weather Channel is giving away an
11-night Disney Mediterranean Cruise, which ends in
Villefranche,
France
, known for perfumeries, soap, olive oil, wine, jewelry, and fashionable threads. This tony harbor features the 14th century
Chapelle St. Pierre, filled with images painted by poet, artist and filmmaker,
Jean Cocteau
, who shot
Orphée
here. (
The Rue Obscure was the eerie medieval setting.) Celebrities have visited for decades, including
the Rolling Stones, who recorded some of
Exile on Main Street 
here in the 70s, and
Anita Pallenberg
, who is rumored to have taken refuge in the Italianate
Eglise St. Michel when she needed to clear her mind. While
Gram Parsons
, strolled the cobbled stone streets, music legend
Tina Turner
called it home.
U2's
Bono
reportedly ate at
Carpaccio and
Le Cosmo, while
Lance Armstrong
,
William Burroughs
, and
John Travolta
have also been spotted in this charming seaside village. From here, you're only hours away from
Paris
. Cruise on over and enter.
