Discover Nice
Get under the skin of Nice on an overland journey by train through France, with time to discover the city sites and venture out into lesser-known suburbs.
Nice, a gem on the French Riviera, is a blend of coastal beauty, art, and Mediterranean lifestyle. The Promenade des Anglais stretches along the sea, while Vieux Nice, the Old Town, is a maze of narrow streets with pastel buildings and lively markets. The Matisse and Chagall Museums showcase artistic legacies, and Castle Hill offers panoramic views of the turquoise coast. Nice merges French elegance with a laid-back beach vibe, making it a favourite for those seeking art, relaxation, and scenic charm.
