Nice

Since the early 19th century, the city of Nice, which overlooks the breathtaking cerulean waters of the Baie des Anges, has motivated tourists and Impressionist painters. A day journey from Monaco is well worth it to explore Nice's stunning Mediterranean setting, rich culture, and old-world charm.

The Vieille Ville (Old Town), with its bustling atmosphere and charming buildings, is a popular destination for tourists who like wandering its evocative cobblestone lanes. On the Cours Saleya in the Old Town, there is a typical Provençal market called Marché aux Fleurs, which is well-known for its flowers.

The Promenade des Anglais, which is lined with palm trees, is another must-see destination where locals and visitors can enjoy the scenery and sunshine of the French Riviera. Several top-notch art museums, such as the Musée Matisse, Musée Chagall, and Musée d'Art Moderne et d'Art Contemporain, are among Nice's most popular attractions. An easy and fun way to visit the highlights of Nice on a day trip from Monaco is with an organized tour, such as the Half-Day Nice City Tour.
