Your adventure will begin with a spectacular scenic drive along the lower Corniche, , to the city of Nice. Take the palm-lined Promenade des Anglais, named for the town of English Colony, which financed the street. See the Negresco Hotel with its ornate Rococo façade, and the Russian Orthodox Cathedral with six domes and colorful ceramics. Disembark your motor coach and walk to the Old Town. Explore the Cours Saleya—a charming promenade that leads to the markets of Nice. Tall houses washed in delightful colors shade the narrow streets. At the flower market, stroll among the stalls in search of the finest blossoms. Re-board the coach, and your drive continues along the Middle Corniche to the town of Eze, perched high above the sea on the face of a cliff. Time is allowed here for you to wander through the cobblestone streets and browse in the shops.
Notes:
On Mondays there is a brocantage (antiques and curios) fair at Cours Saleya instead of the flower/fruit market. This tour requires extensive walking up and down hills and over uneven and cobblestone surfaces. Not recommended for guests with limited mobility.
