Nice Cruises
Known as the “Queen of the Riviera”, Nice is a beautiful, sun-kissed city that attracts visitors from around the globe. The capital of the Côte d'Azur curves beautifully round the Bay of Angels, and is as gorgeous as it is glamourous. Home to the famous Promenade des Anglais, Nice has been a magnet for sun seekers and high-rollers since the 19th century. And most still come to the city to sample the authentic French Riviera lifestyle.
The palm-fringed beach hugs the azure sea on one side, while the other side is lined with Belle Époque buildings.[ReadMoreMob] The city centre is awash with Italian inspired architecture, vast squares and historic monuments to admire, as well as a vast array of shops and market stalls perfect for retail therapy. Be sure to visit the Italian Baroque Church of Saint Giuame, the Cathédrale Sainte Réparate, the Musée Matisse and the Chagall Museum, all must-visit attractions.
At the eastern end of Quai des États-Unis lies the 300ft high Castle Hill, which offers beautiful waterfalls, pools and parks, as well as breath-taking views of Vieux Nice and the bay.
