Nice On Your Own

Find Your Own Inspiration in the City of Matisse Uncover the charms of Nice, one of the French Riviera’s most romantic cities, at your leisure. Enjoy a drive along the panoramic Middle Corniche, arriving in this picturesque Mediterranean city in about 45 minutes. Your driver will deliver you to the seaside Promenade des Anglais, and meet you back here three hours hence. Stroll the promenade, a splendid palm-lined boulevard stretching three miles along the Baie des Anges, or Bay of Angels. Later, walk a few blocks from the bay into Vieux Nice, the Old Town. Its centerpiece is the charming Cours Saleya, the Riviera’s largest flower market immortalized in Matisse’s Festival of Flowers, open every morning except Monday, when a flea market unfolds here. You can also admire the impressive Opéra de Nice and the Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate de Nice with its lush baroque interior. * Easy - Walking portions are generally over easy surfaces with few steps or inclines. Total time walking or standing is normally not longer than 1.5 hours.
