Aix-Les-Bains
One of the best kept secrets in France. An incredibly popular destination for the French. It has all the attractions of neighbouring Annecy but is still largely undiscovered. Sitting alongside Lac Bourget and overlooked by the Mont Revard Escarpment, the town of Aix is a traditional SPA town, with several stylish thermal baths, lovely old neo-classical architecture and french boutiques, the very Grand Casino, a great place to stroll around and stop for a coffee.
