Nice, a bustling coastal city on the French Riviera, offers a perfect blend of sun, sea, and culture. Its picturesque beaches, vibrant Promenade des Anglais, and historic Old Town attract visitors from around the world.
Nice also serves as a gateway to explore the French Riviera’s diverse landscapes, from the lavender fields and limestone hills of the Verdon Gorge to the artistic town of Saint Paul de Vence, to the glamorous shopping at Cannes and Monaco. Nice is the heart of the French Riviera, making it an ideal base for exploring the region. With excellent transportation links—trains, buses, and scenic coastal roads—traveling to nearby gems like Monaco, Cannes, Èze, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, and Antibes is quick and easy.
The French Riviera (or Côte d’Azur) is a glamorous stretch of Mediterranean coastline in southeastern France, known for its stunning beaches, luxurious resorts, historic towns, and artistic heritage. It runs from Saint-Tropez to the Italian border, passing through iconic destinations like Nice, Cannes, Monaco, and Antibes. Dotted with cliffside villages and sweeping sea views, it’s the kind of place that makes a day trip from Nice feel like a mini vacation—if you’re here to soak up the sights or just take it easy. A guided tour of the French Riviera offers expert insights, hassle-free travel, and the chance to discover hidden gems while maximizing your time in this stunning region.
Beyond the famous spots like Cannes, consider visiting the Italian Riviera for its stunning coastline, and Gorges du Verdon for breathtaking canyon views.
Saint Paul de Vence is famous for its art galleries and medieval architecture.
It’s possible, but it might be rushed. For a feasible day trip, focus on key towns like Menton on the French side and Ventimiglia on the Italian side.
The Gorges du Verdon and the Lake of Sainte Croix offer stunning natural beauty and activities like hiking, kayaking, and swimming in crystal-clear waters.
Since trips nowadays involve a lot of walking, wear comfortable shoes and sun protection—hats, sunscreen, and sunglasses. With many destinations having a beach or waterfall, carry a swimsuit in case you want to take a dip. Lastly, carry cash if you want to pick up small souvenirs from the villages or grab a quick bite at a cafe.
