About this trip
Five days on the French Riviera, based between Nice and Monaco. Expect a relaxed pace with time to wander promenades, old town streets and markets, rather than a packed itinerary.
Nice brings boutique shopping and lively market stalls alongside its old town, while Monaco adds a dose of grandeur with its royal palace and famous casino quarter. Throughout, the Mediterranean coastline is never far from view.
It's partially guided, so some days are led and others left free for you to explore at your own pace.
What you'll do
- Wander the promenade and old town streets of Nice
- Browse Nice's boutiques and local markets
- Visit Monaco's royal palace
- See the casinos of Monaco's Monte Carlo district
- Take in Mediterranean coastal views along the Riviera
- Partially guided — some time is structured, some left free
- Relaxed pace suited to families and groups travelling together
- Runs over Christmas and New Year
Worth it if you want a relaxed base in Nice with optional excursions. Think twice if you expect guided exploration or value for money.
- One-hour stops at most places felt rushed; boat ride was entire day with no landing time.
- Hotel old and dated despite central location; guests felt overcharged for budget-level accommodation.
- Tour felt self-guidable with minimal structure; activities poorly integrated into coherent itinerary.
- Covers decent ground across Nice and Monaco region, though lacks depth at individual stops.
