Promenade des Anglais Nice

Azure is my favourite colour and the water of this beautiful big bay is a visual feast for water lovers. It was meant to be raining today but we were so fortunate that there was not a cloud in the sky for our one day on the Cote de Azure.

We made the most of the day leaving early to experience the flower and produce markets on the edge of …

We arrived in Nice after flying from Birmingham to Toulon airport, then getting a bus from Toulon airport to Toulon train station, then using our interrail ticket for the first time from Toulon to Nice. The hostel we had booked had given us instructions to phone them for a lift; we did that then had to get the tram a few stops up. As we were …

Hello from Nice, France! This is just a short entry because we won't have internet at the place we are staying at next and I didn't want to forget about what we saw in the French Riviera!

This is a beautiful part of the world, down in the south of France bordering the Mediterranean (I think. Again - geography not a strong point. I hope I …

Hoy nos levantamos y fuimos directo a Cannes… como verán por la cantidad de fotos, no es la gran cosa que digamos, si estuviese el festival de cine de Cannes capaz lo podía ver a Tom Cruise un ratito pero la verdad que más allá del mar y la vista de la playa… ahhh y para Ami los negocios sobre la …

For spring break, my friend Rachel and I decided to explore the French Riviera for four days! It was amazingly beautiful and we had relatively good weather! We stayed in Villa St. Exupery, a well-known French hostel, and for the most part we had a great time there! The food in their restaurant was really good and fresh AND cheap! So perfect for us …

Reaching Nice from Barcelona is a task in itself. You board the train at Barca, change at Figueres, change again at Montpellier and finally reach Nice. The train runs along the Mediterranean sea and the best pastime is to keep looking out of the window. I reached Nice around 8 and got on to the tram which would drop me close to my hostel. However, …

The last Thursday in March, six of my roommates and I headed to the French Riviera by bus from Florence. We went with a student travel company called Bus2Alps. We arrived in Nice at about 3am and woke up for our walking tour at 11. They walked us through the old town and flower market. The clear blue water offered some amazing views. After the …

Leaving Italy on the Autostrada there are a lot of good views of the sea but also a lot of tunnels, and there is some city driving through Genoa that you have to get through. The last toll booth operator in Italy was the only one to return the "Bongiorno" that I gave to all toll booth operators, but I think that was because he was putting in a new …

So we finally arrive after a gruelling 22 hour journey. As the plane descended into the airport, we heard passengers in awe at their windows, when we peered to our right we saw an unspeakably beautiful sight. Through the clouds and clear blue sky towered snow capped mountains, little did we know that the Swiss alps lay to the north of Nice and here …

Today we finally arrived in Nice, France. Nice is one of the most popular destinations in the world. It is located in the south east coast of France on the Mediterranean Sea. Nice is the second-largest French city on the Mediterranean coast after Marseille.


We went to many places in Nice. As we arrived in Nice in the evening, so we …
