New Ways to See the Mediterranean City of Nice
Electric bikes, NiceCars, boats and pedicabs – these tours and experiences will help you explore the French Riviera’s alluring capital in original and innovative ways.
Travellers flock to Nice every year to soak up the Mediterranean sun, sand and sea. If you’ve been here before, you’ll have already seen the world-famous art museums and taken a stroll along the Promenade des Anglais. Anyone looking to experience a different side of Nice will love this curated list of unique tours. Rent a NiceCar to explore the Riviera at your own pace, or hop on an electric bike for a wine tasting!
Tours
NiceCar is a playful new way to visit the French Riviera. No more tour buses that do not fit the desires of each passenger. With NiceCar, you can visit Nice, Cannes or Monaco at your leisure, on board our three-wheeled vehicles, which are equipped with a GPS-guided audio multi-language system. Adventure becomes a breeze. The NiceCar will be your perfect guide.
