What to expect
Discover the Russian Orthodox Cathedral of Saint Nicholas in Nice Step into a piece of imperial Russia in the heart of the French Riviera. The Saint Nicholas Orthodox Cathedral in Nice is one of the most stunning examples of Russian religious architecture outside of Russia. Built in 1912, this magnificent cathedral was commissioned by Tsar Nicholas II in memory of his son and to serve the Russian community residing in the South of France. Admire its striking onion domes, colorful facades, and richly decorated interiors featuring icons, wood carvings, and an ornate iconostasis. Surrounded by a tranquil garden, the cathedral offers a serene and spiritual atmosphere away from the city’s busy streets. Located just a short walk from the city center, it’s a must-see landmark for visitors interested in history, culture, and architecture.
Explore the Roman Ruins of the Cimiez Arena in Nice Step back in time with a visit to the Cimiez Arena, one of the best-preserved Roman sites on the French Riviera. Nestled in the peaceful Cimiez district of Nice, this ancient amphitheater dates back to the 1st century AD and once hosted gladiator battles and public spectacles during the Roman Empire. Surrounded by olive groves and charming gardens, the arena offers a unique blend of history and tranquility. Nearby, you’ll also find the Roman baths and the Musée Archéologique de Nice-Cimiez, making it a perfect stop for history lovers and curious travelers.

Mt Boron
Discover Breathtaking Views from Mont Boron in Nice Escape the city and immerse yourself in nature with a visit to Mont Boron, one of Nice’s most scenic and tranquil spots. This lush hilltop park offers panoramic views over the Baie des Anges, the port of Nice, and even as far as Monaco and the Italian Riviera on clear days. Mont Boron is perfect for walking, hiking, or simply relaxing in a peaceful Mediterranean forest filled with pine and olive trees. Along the way, explore Fort du Mont Alban, a 16th-century military fortress that adds a touch of history to your nature escape. Ideal for photography lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, Mont Boron offers a refreshing break from the city — with some of the best lookout points on the French Riviera.
Uncover the Best Views in Nice from Castle Hill (Colline du Château) No visit to Nice is complete without a stop at Castle Hill — the city’s most iconic viewpoint. Known locally as “La Colline du Château,” this historic hilltop park offers stunning panoramic views over the Baie des Anges, Old Town (Vieux Nice), and the harbor. Once the site of a medieval fortress, the hill is now a peaceful oasis filled with lush greenery, scenic walking paths, a picturesque waterfall, and ancient ruins. It’s a favorite among locals and visitors for morning strolls, sunset photos, or simply escaping the bustle of the city below. Whether you hike up the steps, take the scenic lift, or arrive by private tour, Castle Hill is a must-see highlight for any trip to the French Riviera.
Wander Through the Charming Streets of Nice’s Old Town (Vieux Nice) Step into the heart of Nice’s rich history and Mediterranean charm with a walk through the Old Town, or “Vieux Nice.” This lively and colorful district is a maze of narrow cobblestone streets, bustling markets, and centuries-old buildings painted in warm ochre tones. Discover local treasures at the famous Cours Saleya market, where you’ll find fresh flowers, regional produce, and Provençal delicacies. Explore historic landmarks like the Baroque-style Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate and the impressive Palais Lascaris. Along the way, soak up the atmosphere in quaint cafés, artisan shops, and traditional gelaterias.
