Nice, Eze and Monaco

Tour Description :

Nice, Eze (or St Paul) and Monaco

Nice:  After your pick-up this excursion will start with a walking tour from the Fontaine du soleil, to the old town to see the colorful flower and farmer market and to see where the locals live and much more… The only way to get to know the real Nice is by strolling through the ocher colored streets listening to the « Niçois » speaking their own language (Nissart) and by tasting their savory cooking. One mustn’t miss the onion, anchovy and olive tarts called « Pissaladieres », the famous Socca made with chickpea flour. And the best, creamiest, yummiest ice cream from Fenocchio with over 100 different flavor.

Eze: Your jaw will drop in front of the magnificent view of the Mediterranean. ‘Eze is a charming medieval village perched on a hill, built like an eagle’s nest with its exotic garden hanging from the ruins of the castle at an altitude of 400 m. Shoppers will delight in the many local perfumeries shops and art galleries. You will enjoy strolling in its small narrow cobbled streets lined with small cafes and restaurants, its vaulted passages, and its beautiful flowered houses. It’s fantastic!

We will finish the day with the luxury of Monaco, Monte-Carlo: Nowhere exudes luxury quite like Monaco does, with no other place similar in Europe. Discover the second smallest country in the world, the (old town, with a walking tour), the Prince Palace, the cathedral (neo Romanesque style) where Grace and Rainier were married, and is also where their graves can be found, the incredible oceanographic museum. It will be a sin to not go to Monte-Carlo along the formula 1 grand prix circuit, the most prestigious in the world.
