Nice Holidays

Perched on a rocky spur over the Mediterranean, Nice is a coastal city topped by beautiful exotic gardens and castle ruins, offering stunning panoramic views of the French Riviera and endless gastronomic delights. The golden sand and Mediterranean waters make for a great place to spend lazy days soaking up some rays while listening to the waves crash against the shore. If you want more than just lounge chairs and umbrellas, Nice holidays offer plenty of activities too. Go on a boat trip in search of dolphins and watch the sun sink into the horizon before heading back to the famous Promenade des Anglais, spanning over four miles of palm tree-lined walkways, outdoor cafes and boutiques. Nice holidays can be spent soaking up the city’s rich history by exploring the preserved old town and its fortresses, and what better way to discover the sights than on a private tour tracing the footsteps of the great art masters of the 20th century throughout this region. There are also plenty of opportunities to escape the city and explore nearby mountainside villages or hike up into nature, where you can enjoy the fresh mountain air and visit quaint shops.
