Wonderful market for fresh produce. We got loads of fresh bread from the boulangerie and some herbs and spices to take back home. It was a feast for the senses. Definitely worth a trip.
Preet P — Google review
We arrived in Cannes at 10am and went straight to the Marché for breakfast. It felt so local and authentic to be there, surrounded by the lively market vibe. The only downside was that most stalls only accepted cash, so we had to pause our shopping and walk to the ATM on the corner. Once sorted, we enjoyed two small sandwiches that were super tasty—simple, fresh, and just perfect. A great way to start the day in Cannes! 🥖✨

Good-sized market with a variety of local items you often won’t find in supermarkets or other shops. Some produce can be hit or miss, and prices are a bit on the much higher side, but it’s a great place to discover unique, local goods.

Casino
Fun & Games
Located in Cannes, France, Casino Barriere Le Croisette is a popular destination for gaming and leisure. The casino boasts an array of offerings including 245 slot machines, electronic English roulette stations, poker tables, and blackjack tables. Additionally, patrons can partake in various table games such as blackjack, roulette, Sic Bo, poker, Punto Banco, and War. The venue also hosts poker tournaments throughout the year.
The casino in Cannes is absolutely stunning, and what really caught my eye were the photos of so many famous Hollywood and Bollywood stars lining the walls. It's amazing to see stars like Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Aishwarya Rai, and Shah Rukh Khan among others, who’ve either visited Cannes or been part of the iconic Cannes Film Festival. It adds such a glamorous vibe to the place, making it feel like you’re stepping into the world of celebrities. One important thing to know is that you need your passport to enter the casino, so definitely don’t forget to bring it along if you want to experience the inside. It’s also super convenient as it’s located very close to the train station, just a short walk away. Whether you’re a fan of gambling or just want to soak in the luxury, this casino is a great stop while exploring Cannes.

You would think a casino would have on there website essential things like the correct minimum hands for games or what to bring to be let in. Well not here, no where to be found on there website does it let customers know that unless French you must bring a passport and there minimum hand amounts don’t match up whatsoever to the real ones with it being two times as much once inside. Plus the websites “English” translation doesn’t work whatsoever, leaving people wondering what they’re even reading. Crappy experience
Noah K — Google review
If I could give it zero stars I would. This casino is like expecting Fortnum and Mason and getting a local Spar from outskirts of Glasgow… but the Spar has more atmosphere. Not sure I’ve ever been so disappointed. I could have experienced the same thing by visiting a Moto motorway services in the M6. In white jeans, heels and a white top, I was worried we would be under dressed… don’t worry - there seems to be zero dress code. If you’re expecting a casino experience with cocktail dresses, manned tables, people cheering on big wins… atmosphere full stop - this isn’t it. There aren’t many photos of it because there is nothing worth taking a photo of.

Unfriendly staff, dealer miscounted cards at Ultimate Poker and did not even apologize! Super unprofessional - „free“ drinks at the table did not arrive in 45min after ordering, they try to not give them out. They do not change dealers regularly like in other casinos, as long as the bank wins the same dealer stays for more than 1 hour sometimes. No structured and professional process here. Very pretty & clean casino but for actually playing one of the worst experiences. Cannot recommend.
Leo G — Google review
Avoid at all costs. There is a much better casino just down the road by the JW. The entire staff is insanely rude, they literally BEG you for tips and it’s common for them to “miscount” on blackjack. Legit the worst casino I’ve ever been to.
Taylor C — Google review
Constantly miscounted cards and won’t let you have fun. After complaining about it 3 times, they reviewed the cameras and gave me my wager back, but not the winnings (blackjack). Do not go here, there’s a much better casino down the street.

One of the most beautiful cities in Europe that I have visited. It really exudes unusual beauty and romance. The buildings are beautiful and I really like that kind of architecture.

And of course La Croisette! Beautiful! I will be happy to visit Cannes again!

Popularly known as Palais des Festivals et des Congres", La Croisette is about 22 km long promenade in Cannes along the shore of the Mediterranean Sea where the Cannes Film Festival is held. There is a sidewalk with hotels, casinos, brand stores, a rose garden and places with lots of shady trees where families meet and spend their quality time. There are interesting places around this place to stroll and explore. If you are falling short of time or do not have energy for a walk, then one can enjoy a small touristic city train tour to explore the nearby area. The place is dynamic with lots of hustle bustle of the tourists and locals. The evening sunsets and the night illuminations and combined with festive fireworks make this place truly romantic and mesmerizing. A must to visit when you are in France.

The Palace of Festivals and Congresses of Cannes is a modern convention center that hosts prestigious events like the Cannes Film Festival. Adjacent to it is the historical Church of Lady of Good Voyage, which replaced the original chapel and holds significance as Emperor Napoleon's first stop upon his return from Elba in 1815. Additionally, visitors can enjoy free movie screenings on Mace Plage beach every night, courtesy of Cinema de la Plage.
If you ever get the chance to visit The Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes, don’t miss it! There are not many days in a year when the palace is open to tourists, so when it is - take that rare opportunity! This is not just a building - it’s where world-famous movie stars walk the red carpet. You get to see behind the scenes of the Cannes Film Festival and visit places you’d never normally be allowed to enter… unless, of course, you’re on your way to becoming a world-famous actor or director! Walking through the backstage areas, the theaters, and the press zones is truly exciting. You’ll feel the energy, the history, and maybe even a bit of the stardust left behind by celebrities.

Had been there during last September. The Palace of Festival & Congress was under renovation. But the atmosphere around the area is lovely. Try to reach early, say around 9 am. Getting a parking slot in the parking lot of the basement is easier if you reach that time. The crowd also is less. We were able to see a nice market set up around the Prom de La Pantiero. The marina situated in the area is also really good. There are enough eateries in the area where you get lovely croissant and pastries. If the market has been set up you can even get very fresh fruits.

Attended MIPCOM Cannes 2025 there. The location is very pleasing to the eye, situated on the beach with direct access to the beach promenade, the restaurant and bar district, and the shopping area.The event was reasonably well-structured thematically, divided into different levels, and well-attended, albeit not as opulent as in previous years.The outdoor pavilions, the so-called "Rivieras," were outstanding, however – they allowed you to get a few minutes of fresh air and soak up a little sun while commuting through the exhibition grounds.The expansive layout meant I ended the first day of the fair with over 20,000 steps on the exhibition grounds alone.

Iconic and full of energy — a must-see in Cannes 🎬✨ The Palace of Festivals and Congresses is one of the most iconic spots in Cannes. Standing at the top of the red carpet stairs feels surreal — like stepping into a scene from the famous film festival. Even outside of festival season, there’s a vibrant atmosphere around the building, with people taking photos, exploring the promenade, or enjoying the sea breeze. The modern architecture contrasts beautifully with the historic charm of the city. In summer, the whole area comes alive with events, markets, and street performers. It’s also perfectly located — right by the beach and close to great restaurants and shops. If you’re visiting Cannes, this is more than just a landmark — it’s a symbol of creativity, glamour, and the spirit of the Riviera.

Free toilets for both sexes is about 100 yards from the tourist bureau. It is directly across from the splendid hotel. See photos . The staff at the tourist office in Cannes is extremely helpful and polite. Ask the tough questions. There is an electric bus for .80 euros that will take one up to the top of old town. It’s will worth the experience. Do not be shy to speak with the locals. I did and this was the best part of the trip. If coming from Nice, one can take the 620 bus which is the least expensive way but will take 1 1/2 hours or taking the train which is double the price but only takes 22-26 minutes. The pro with taking the bus. You can chat with locals and learn about small towns. The con of course it taking much more time. Regardless, spend time at both Cannes and Monte Carlo! I did and I highly recommend.

One of the best Office de Tourisme experiences thanks to Marine. We are staying for a longer period of time and Marine took the time to talk us through the nearby areas as well as local trips we can do, with an attitude that made us excited for our time here.

Beautiful island for a day trip or half day trip. Easy to get the 15 minute ferry from Cannes. There are nice walks around the island and beautiful swimming spots with crystal clear waters. Perfect place to take a picnic, relax and enjoy the views. There are a couple of food vendors for snacks and drinks. Also check out the diving / snorkeling spot with underwater statues. The area is on the opposite side of the island to the boat port. Cool experience, swimming out to find the 6 underwater statues/sculptures.

Île Sainte Marguerite is a fifteen-minute boat ride from Cannes. You can pick up your tickets directly on the quayside. The crossing is rather quiet. The island also depends on whether it's high or low season. It's clean and the landscape is well preserved. The boats come and go frequently. And the average return fare is less than €20, depending on whether you buy online or in the stalls. Buying on the spot seems cheaper.
Chérie A — Google review
Île Sainte-Marguerite is a natural temple, breathtaking and unique. Unfortunately, some people ruin it by parking their boats just 10 meters from the shore — something both illegal and dangerous, for swimmers and for the fragile marine environment. I expected to see the coast guard enforcing the rules, but this is Cannes: if you’re wealthy, it seems you can do whatever you want, and the local administration turns a blind eye. Sadly, the damage is already visible — much of the underwater algae is dead. A paradise like this deserves real protection, not neglect.

I visited Île Sainte-Marguerite during my trip to Cannes, and it was such a peaceful and refreshing experience. The island is surrounded by crystal-clear blue water and has beautiful walking trails through pine trees. You can visit the old fort, enjoy the sea views, or simply sit and relax by the shore. It’s quiet, clean, and perfect for nature lovers. There are limited food options, so it’s good to carry some water and snacks. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a calm and scenic escape from the city!

Two Islands out of time, so close to Cannes but so far away at the same time. Winter seems to never exist in Saint Margaret and her little sister, Saint Honorat. Modern statues have been immersed between the two Islands making their discovery full of mystery...and fun.

(Translated by Google) May/2022 Beautiful place. Tiny islands off the coast of France covered with eucalyptus and pine forests. It's worth going, especially on hot days, and there are many of them in this place on Earth. There are cruises from Cannes. Perfect for one-day picnics and holidays doing nothing. Wonderful views. Clear water. Nothing to do but stop and admire the world. I recommend. (Original) maj/2022 Przepiękne miejsce. Malutkie wyspy u wybrzeży Francji porośnięte lasem eukaliptusowym i sosnowym. Warto się wybrać, zwłaszcza w upalne dni, a takich w tym miejscu na Ziemi jest wiele. Są rejsy z Cannes. Idealne na jednodniowe pikniki i wakacyjne nic nierobienie. Widoki cudne. Woda przezroczysta. Nic tylko się zatrzymać i podziwiać Świat. Polecam.

(Translated by Google) beautiful islands in front of Cannes. the largest one that can be explored on foot in a ring; few sandy beaches with seaweed on the shore; the rocky buttresses against which the sea waves crash are beautiful. (Original) bellissime isole di fronte a Cannes. la piu grande percorribile a piedi ad anello; poche spiagge sabbiose con alghe a riva; belli i contrafforti rocciosi contro cui si infrangono le onde del mare.

A very nice place to visit, it was super nice to take a ferry from Golf Juan and come. We were with a small kid and it was all great, we were walking around the island, but what we did not expect is that we should have made a reservation for lunch (we bought sandwiches which were also super tasty and fresh). The only thing is that beach is not equipped at all, nowhere to lay, no changing cabins, no showers.

(Translated by Google) I had the opportunity to spend a day on Sainte-Marguerite Island. There were very few people and the weather was beautiful during the month of May 2023. The island is very clean, with little human presence compared to the many visitors it must welcome, which is very pleasant. The landscapes are magnificent (the photos speak for themselves). (Original) J'ai eu l'occasion de passer une journée sur l'île Sainte-Marguerite, très peu de monde et un très beau temps durant ce mois de mai 2023. L'île est très propre, peu marquée par l'homme par rapport aux nombreux visiteurs qu'elle doit accueillir, ceci est très agréable. Les paysages sont magnifiques (les photos parlent d'elles-mêmes).

Loup is a 49km river that flows through the Gorges du Loup and eventually meets the Mediterranean Sea. The Loup valley in the Prealpes d'Azur Regional Natural Park offers picturesque Provencal landscapes, with hiking trails leading to Bois de Gourdon from Le Bar-sur-Loup village. The area also features historical sites like the castle of the Counts of Grasse and old houses in the village's historic center.

And you will be transformed and willing simply to enjoy Life and appreciate your own God-ness. Yes. I AM Goddess. Thanks Life.

Les Gorges du Loup is a beautiful canyon carved by the Loup (French for wolf) river flowing down the Alps. There is a wonderful hiking trail taking you up the canyon to the picturesque village of Gourdon - some say it is the most beautiful in France - like an eagle nest dominating the valley beneath. Up there enjoy the spectacular view spaning southwards to the sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean. On a clear day the snowy summits of the island of Corsica (240 km away) are in sight if you look to the south. A narrow road connects the tranquility of the wild, rugged and under-appreciated back-country from the village down to the overcrowded touristy coast.

(Translated by Google) Nice little walk along the Loup that my partner and I often do. A small criticism for dog owners who let their pets do their poop on the spot, along the path, as for those who throw it on the ground, better still who hang the little black one with the droppings inside, instead of throwing it in a bin. Shame on them 💩😖🤮 (Original) P'tite balade sympathique le long du Loup que l'on fait souvent ma compagne et moi. Un petit bémol aux propriétaires de chiens qui laissent leurs animaux faire leur caca sur place, le long du chemin, quant à ceux où celles qui jettent au sol, mieux encore qui accrochent le petit noir avec les crottes à l'intérieur, au lieu de le jeter dans une poubelle.

(Translated by Google) Madam, open a tea room if the “dirty” tourists that we are bother you… so you can have a chat with your friends and make fun of people as you wish. Sorry for not meeting your mountain princess standards. There isn't just one brand of hiking shoes 🥾 and being in good health doesn't mean that I don't know how to walk or even less find out before a walk. It was very instructive to hear you take us for idiots. And since you are in the judgment and the odious aspect: change your hair color it is disgusting to welcome people on the roundabout. Rest assured, the people of the village are super nice and will better advise and guide you. The area and surroundings are charming, as are the superb steps. Courage. (Original) Madame, ouvrez un salon de thé si les « sales » touristes que nous sommes vous dérangent… vous pourrez ainsi tailler la bavette avec vos copines et vous moquer des gens à votre guise. Désolé de ne pas correspondre à vos standards de princesse des montagnes. Il n’y a pas qu une marque de chaussures de randonnée 🥾 et être bien portant ne veut pas dire que je ne sais pas marcher ou encore moins me renseigner avant une marche. C’était très instructif de vous entendre nous prendre pour des cons. Et puisque vous êtes dans le jugement et l’aspect odieux : changez de couleur de cheveux c’est immonde pour accueillir les gens sur le rond-point. Rassurez-vous les gens du village sont super gentils et vont mieux vous conseiller et vous orienter. C’est charmant le coin et les alentours ainsi que les marches superbes. Courage.

Cathédrale Saint-Nicolas de Nice

Mentioned on

Russian Orthodox church
Sights & Landmarks
Cathédrale Saint-Nicolas de Nice is a stunning Russian-style Orthodox cathedral located in the heart of Nice, France. The exterior resembles Moscow with its onion domes and vibrant colors, creating a unique contrast to the surrounding French square. Inside, visitors are greeted with opulent furnishings, intricate woodwork, religious icons, ornate sculptures, and beautiful paintings. The 17th-century Baroque facade adds to the cathedral's grandeur.
Nice Russian Orthodox building not far from the railway station. It has a nice green area around it, with rabbits running around. Inside is beautiful. Well worth a visit if in the area.

Beautiful place, but an active churche so please make sure to visit outside of mess hours. There is a nice museum in the crypt worth visiting and learning about the history of this church. A bit unusual place to visit as a tourist but very interesting.
Gerard P — Google review
Found this a worthwhile visit. €5 will permit you to go to the basement of the church to view a short feature on the history of the cathedral which makes for an interesting backdrop as you view the cathedral itself. Beautiful and peaceful inside, and very pleasant ladies who admit you, plus a small gift shop if you are so inclined.
J H — Google review
What a grandiose place of worship! The church looks absolutely fabulous both from outside and majestic on the inside. Being my first visit to a Russian Orthodox church, there were so many things that were different to my eyes. There is no longitudinal nave with bench seats. Instead this is what traditional wooden chapels would have looked like. The construction reminded me of Ottoman buildings (pardon my ignorance). The intense gilded decor and dark shaded paintings instantly detaches you from the outer chaotic world. Amazing experience.

The church is beautiful, and it is worth seeing while visiting Nice, but only 4 stars because of the old ladies working inside. They are just rude. I'm a tourist and I think like many people visiting this place I'm allowed not to speak Russian or French well to understand them. I know it is a church and a place of whorship first before tourist attraction, but they were really rude and borderr aggressive. I hope you will not get this treatment.

It's more beautiful from the outside and there's a big garden surrounding the cathedral. Inside we can see the museum and prayer's hall. It's only a small portion and the ticket cost 5 Euro. The ladies working there all wear head scarves. Even most women visitors wear head scarves too. Apparently this cathedral is the property of the Russian Federation.

Points of Interest & Landmarks
Prom. des Anglais is a 7-km-long beachfront promenade in Nice, France, lined with palm trees and featuring a bike path. It has been a popular spot since the 18th century when English aristocrats sought refuge from winter weather. The promenade extends from the airport to Nice's old town and is home to many hotels and cafes. Visitors can enjoy seaside walks, known locally as 'the Prom,' while taking in the sea air and lively atmosphere of Nice.
Very beautiful, scenic and lively avenue along the coast with passengers walking around in numbers even at midnight. And the avenue is exceptionally bright, of course.

Great views of the bay and the city. The promenade is apparently over 7 kilometers long and offers lovely views of the water and the city. You can also get a great view of planes taking off to land and coming in at Nice airport! With so much seating available it is a fantastic spot to park up with some takeaway food and watch the world go by. It can be especially pretty at sunset. If you are visiting Nice you will probably walk along here a bunch of times

Nice is a very beautiful city. I could not have enough of it. The clear blue water and the buildings are just breathe taking. Even from the airplane I could see the blue color of the sea. This city should be seen on feet, walking around is the best to see its beauty. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the long beach. It was difficult to walk with my feet in the water because it was a stone beach not sand one.

Very disappointed with the way the carnival was conducted. The place itself was ok but man is there 0 information about what happens on opening night. They say its free for entry and then when you queue up suddenly everyone has tickets. They block the whole view from the sides for the carnival and hold it in a super exclusive staged area. We travelled all the way from UK for this for nothing. If people say we should have bought tickets in advance, its clearly mentioned on the website that its free on opening day and doesn't mention about any tickets!

Lovely area with live music regularly. We found many shops and restaurants in the area. We didn't have a chance to see if uber was well represented here because our hotel was close enough to the water as close enough to Nice Massena that we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Old city is very near. So is the castle hill. Both places I would highly recommend. The beech of course, too! We found it quite easy to communicate as English speakers. We were only in Nice 2.5 days but would happily return to this area!

If you're in the French Riviera, you clearly have to come to Nice and to visit this place. It's always full of people, a lot of places where you can seat. Thanks to the metro it's pretty easy to go there. Also most of the time there are artists which perform music.

National museum
Museums
The Marc Chagall National Museum is a tribute to the works of the Russian-born French artist, showcasing his paintings and other artistic creations. The museum's architecture by Andre Hermant complements Chagall's use of color and light, with large windows illuminating lithographs, sculptures, and paintings. Visitors can explore Chagall's biblical and spiritual inspirations through free audio guides in what is the largest public collection of his works worldwide.
This national museum houses a permanent exhibit of Chagall's paintings, stained glass, and mosaics. The paintings are from his biblical cycle. A documentary film illustrates the creation of the four seasons mosaic. The museum is located in a quiet park, including a cafe and restaurant.

Nice’s museum opened by and dedicated to Marc Chagall - primarily consisting of his ‘biblical’ works, and those related to religious themes and tropes. Interesting to see this line of his work compared to some of his other more famous pieces. Not overly big, but interesting for any art lovers.
Matt W — Google review
The Marc Chagall National Museum is located in a primarily residential neighbor situated on the hills of Nice. This museum was inaugurated while Chagall was still alive and it houses several of his paintings as well as explores his famous mosaics. There are tours available on a first come first serve basis. Guillemette, our tour guide, was extremely informative sharing insights into Chagall’s history, his collaborators, and his inspirations. We learned about the process of making mosaics too from creative inception to the actual works. What’s more, there is an outdoor cafe that’s serves sweet and savory, hot and cold snacks and beverages that is also worth checking out. Keep in mind, you will be asked to remove your water bottles and any food that you bring with you so best to avoid bringing them. Recommend bringing very small bag if any at all. Spent a delightful couple of hours at the Marc Chagall museum enjoying his art and the natural surroundings. Highly recommend
Nanita — Google review
Visiting the Chagall Museum in Nice was an absolute delight. Tucked away in a quiet corner of the city, it feels like stepping into a peaceful world filled with color, imagination, and poetry. The moment you walk in, you’re surrounded by Chagall’s luminous blues and dreamlike scenes that seem to glow from within. What I loved most was how personal and intimate the museum feels — it’s not overwhelming, and you can really take your time with each painting. The biblical message series is breathtaking, and the stained-glass windows add a special light that changes the whole atmosphere. The staff were welcoming, and the small garden outside is perfect for sitting for a few minutes to let everything sink in. It’s one of those places that leaves you both calm and inspired

The Marc Chagall National Museum in Nice, France together with the Matisse Museum were my unexpected finds in a vacation that was just free flowing and no detailed itinerary. At first, I was apprehensive as it was my first time to visit a museum on my own and in another country even. However, I did not regret my decision to forego seeing Cannes in favour of the great works of Chagall and Matisse all in one day! The 75 or so Euros cost of Uber (Holiday Inn Hotel - Matisse Museum - Holiday Inn - Chagall Museum - Hotel) plus tickets in both museums was definitely worth it! The Chagall Museum was inaugurated on July 7, 1973, and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023. It houses a large number of artworks donated by Chagall, his wife, and his heirs to the State of France, including the 17 Biblical paintings inspired by the books of Genesis, Exodus and Songs. The museum is located in the Cimiez district with address Av. Dr Ménard, 06000 Nice, France. It stands on a vast plot of land donated by the city of Nice. The entrance to the museum is 10 euros and is opened from 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM it closes on Tuesdays. I bought my ticket in the museum without hassle and entered immediately. #MarcChagallMuseum #MarcChagall #FrenchRiviera #museum

Sadly it's in need of upkeep but the art is still spectacular. The fountain around the outside mural is empty. And the museum closes for lunch. And the red room is posed off. You can only view it from it's entrance.

Biblical Message cycle: The centerpiece, displayed over 12 walls in a distinctive rhombus configuration, delivers a striking visual narrative with intense color, spiritual depth, and dreamlike quality . Song of Songs paintings: A smaller, intimate series with red-dominated canvases blending sacred, carnal, and musical themes . Stained glass & mosaics: Notable are the stained glass in the auditorium and the Prophet Elijah mosaic overlooking a reflective pool—Chagall’s own in‑situ creations. Free parking available . Suggested visit time: At least 1 hour, more if attending an event or exploring the gardens . The Musée National Marc Chagall is a heartfelt tribute to the artist’s spiritual vision and remains one of the most authentic places to immerse in his biblical-themed art. It’s especially compelling for fans of Chagall or those seeking a serene, contemplative museum experience. For casual visitors, a one-hour visit is sufficient to appreciate its beauty and thoughtful architecture nestled in a Mediterranean garden.

Nature & Parks
Colline du Château, also known as Castle Hill, is a historic hilltop park in Nice that offers breathtaking views of the city and the sea. The climb up the stone steps to this hill is short but rewarding, with turquoise coasts and apricot-colored roofs spreading out before you as you ascend. From the summit, you can enjoy grand vistas of the Old Port with its yachts and sails, as well as distant views of the snow-dusted peaks of the Alps.
We reached the top by cart. The road itself is beautiful, the nature and remains that we saw prepared us for the view and the pigeons, wonderful, white ones. The view of the place is fantastic, and a large part of the park is left for children and adults to enjoy freely. A great place to spend the day. The view of the waterfall, from above, leaves an unusual impression. It may take a bit of sanding, but the experience is unforgettable.

Coming here in the rain turned out to be an excellent idea — there were almost no people around, and the views were still amazing.

The Colline du Château is also known as Castle Hill. It has several ideal lookouts / viewpoints from where you can see the best views of Nice. At the top there is even a terrace with a couple of benches, occasionally with a musician - there was a drummer when we were there. In addition to many scenic walks and viewpoints, there is also a waterfall, archeological ruins, playgrounds for children, and a cafe. It’s hard to miss seeing the Colline du Château from the famous Promenade d’Anglais and whether ascending either by steps on one side or a ramp on the other, it’s worth the effort. Spend an hour or the day as there are plenty of public restrooms and a couple of snack kiosks. Highly recommend!
Nanita — Google review
Parc de la Colline du Château ended up being one of my favorite spots in Nice. The park is absolutely beautiful—lush pathways, peaceful corners, and some of the best panoramic views of the city and the Mediterranean. Whether you hike up, take the stairs, or use the elevator, the views at the top are completely worth it. I loved wandering around the ruins, the gardens, and the waterfall area. It’s the perfect place to take a break from the busier streets below and just soak in the scenery. The mix of history and nature gives the whole park a calm, charming vibe. Overall, Parc de la Colline du Château is a must-visit when in Nice—great for photos, relaxing walks, and unbeatable views of the coastline and Old Town.
Dee G — Google review
Colline du Château offers the quintessential Nice experience! Ascending to the top rewards you with arguably the most spectacular panoramic views of the Baie des Anges, the bustling port, and the terracotta rooftops of Vieux Nice. The waterfall is a delightful surprise, and the park itself is a perfect, peaceful escape from the city's energy. A must-visit spot for breathtaking scenery and a moment of calm reflection!

Amazing view point for Nice and a good day out for sure! There is a lift you can take to the top of the hill which definitely improves the accessibility. It is decently busy (but what else would you expect). Upon my visit there was 2 people I encountered who seemed to be a little pushy to get people to take pictures with their Doves in exchange for money.

Colline du Chateau, also known as Castle Hill is a wonderful walk with stunning views of Nice. The waterfall was spectacular. We were also surprised to find a couple of places at the top of the hill where you could purchase refreshments. No tickets required, the walk is free, unless of course you wish to skip the exercise and catch the little visitor train.

The Modern and Contemporary Art Museum (MAMAC) is housed in a modern tower-like building and features avant-garde art from American and French artists. Visitors can explore the works of influential avant-garde artists such as Yves Klein and Niki de Saint Phalle, as well as classic pop art and new realism pieces from prominent American and European artists. The museum regularly hosts contemporary art exhibitions, including on its rooftop terrace, which offers sweeping views of the city.
This is a fantastic museum with lots to see. My ticket gave me access to the exhibits and permanent collections.

Plus, the views of the city (from windows inside the building and also the circular roof terrace) are magnificent.

The permanent collection is interesting with amongst others the blue work from Nice born artist Yves Klein The temporary exhibition with African art did not impress me much. Too much copy-paste from "western" artist. The top level is open, and the sections connected with bridges so you can walk around have good views of the city below. There is even a small garden there.

Weird and wonderful art here. Interesting enough to spend 1-2 hours. Modern and creative ways of portraying political messages. Well worth coming if you like art, otherwise perhaps not worth 10€ per adult. Several floors here, so you can always skip the less exciting ones. A great view of Nice from the top platform.

The staff is nice, but the museum is dirty and dusty, and it seems grungy. The coolest part is the roof or you can walk up and down these bridges to go all around the building and give you fantastic views. The place has great potential but it’s very tired, dirty and dusty. The Gardens looks like they might be under construction and there might be a plan to fix them up. I hope that’s true because it’s a space with incredible potential but right now it’s just ratty.

Museums
Nestled in a stunning 17th-century Genoese villa, the Musée Matisse is a captivating homage to the renowned artist Henri Matisse and his deep connection to Nice. Surrounded by ancient olive trees, this museum offers an enchanting exploration of Matisse's artistic journey, featuring an extensive collection that spans from his early masterpieces to his later groundbreaking works. The vibrant colors and dynamic forms on display reflect Matisse's love for the Riviera’s breathtaking landscapes and lively atmosphere.
A small museum showcasing the things that inspired Matisse. A focused but modest collection, perfect for Matisse fans or a tranquil cultural stop. It might take a bit longer to get inside, but you can walk through it fairly quickly. I felt it could use a few more visual displays. Still, for Matisse lovers like me, it’s a lovely museum, set within a very large park.

Excellent Experience at the Matisse Museum Accessibility & Location: The Matisse Museum was easy to access, with convenient public transport options and nearby parking. Clear signage guided visitors smoothly to entrances and exits, and the walking paths were comfortable for all ages, including elderly visitors. The surrounding area was peaceful, clean, and well-kept, making the approach to the museum pleasant. Entry & Organization: The entry process was well managed — ticketing was quick and efficient, lines moved fast, and staff at the entrance were polite and professional. Informational materials and signs were clear, accurate, and helpful, setting the tone for an organized visit. Ambience & Presentation: The museum’s atmosphere was calm, elegant, and perfectly suited to the spirit of Henri Matisse’s art. The lighting and layout allowed each piece to be appreciated properly, and the building itself reflected the artist’s world beautifully — bright, airy, and reflective of Mediterranean harmony. The spaces were spotless and comfortable, with good temperature control and crowd management. Exhibits / Features: The artworks were well-curated, offering an engaging journey through Matisse’s evolution. Photography was allowed where appropriate and managed respectfully. All artwork explanations are in French only, with no English translations. For a museum in such a popular tourist country, bilingual descriptions should be standard. Staff & Visitor Support: Staff were visible and courteous throughout the museum, always ready to assist when needed. The facilities, including restrooms and the gift shop, were clean and well maintained, adding to the overall comfort of the visit. Value & Experience: The visit offered excellent value — beautifully organized, inspiring, and educational. The Matisse Museum delivered exactly what one hopes for: a serene, thoughtful experience surrounded by art that celebrates color, form, and emotion. ⭐ 4.5 / 5

a true gem for anyone who loves art, color, and calm. Set in a beautiful villa surrounded by olive trees, it offers not only a glimpse into Matisse’s artistic journey but also a sense of serenity that’s rare to find. Walking through the rooms, you can feel how deeply Matisse loved light and simplicity. From his early sketches to his joyful cut-outs, every piece tells a story of experimentation and freedom. I especially loved seeing his personal objects and drawings — they make you feel closer to the artist as a person, not just a painter. The museum is not large, but that’s part of its charm — it invites you to slow down and really look. The staff were friendly, and the surrounding park is perfect for a quiet stroll after the visit.

The Matisse Museum in Nice is a true gem for art lovers. Located in the picturesque Colline du Château area, the museum impresses with its blend of modern exhibition spaces and historical architecture. The collection features over 200 works by Matisse, from early sketches to mature paintings, as well as graphics, sculptures, and personal items. Each piece reflects the artist’s unique vision of color, form, and light. The exhibition is thoughtfully arranged, making it easy to follow the evolution of Matisse’s style. The atmosphere is calm, bright, and inspiring, creating a comfortable and emotionally engaging experience. The staff is polite and helpful, and guided tours or audio guides are available to gain deeper insight into Matisse’s work. For anyone who appreciates art and wants to experience the magic of color and form, the Matisse Museum is an absolute must-visit in Nice.

Not really a museum… more like a very limited permanent exhibition Considering how small and limited the collection is, this really shouldn’t be called a museum. At best, it’s a small, permanent exhibition of just a handful of works. Given that Matisse lived and created here, in a beautiful nearby Regina Palace, we expected something truly impressive. To our surprise and disappointment, the number of artworks on display is so small you could count them on the fingers of one hand. Most descriptions are only in French, with almost no English information available (!) Even the staff don’t speak English, which makes the visit quite frustrating. At one point, a security guard gestured (!) that I had to wear my backpack on the front. When I asked in very simple English why that was necessary—since it could actually increase the risk, as someone could easily take something out of the bag when it’s in front, like paint or a sharp tool, and potentially damage an artwork—he couldn’t explain anything because he didn’t speak English at all. The whole experience left us shocked and disappointed. It really feels like a waste of money. If you have €10 to spare, spend it on some good cheese, a baguette, or even a ticket to somewhere nearby—Monte Carlo, Cannes, anywhere. Sadly, we didn’t expect to walk out so underwhelmed. As mentioned, this is not a museum; it’s simply a display of a few works.

Highly recommend this piece and place. I walked from Nice old town, it's a bit of a slog and uphill but on a clear sunny day, it's nice to see the suburbs. The museum itself is great, over 3 floors and plentiful of art to see. The shop is a delight, picked up some Matisse prints for a cheap price.

A nice experience in Nice 😉 Though I must admit, I often wasn’t sure what I was meant to ponder in the details. That being said, I believe once I stop before a painting, let my eyes rest on it, and find my attention caught by any small detail or contrast in colour, then the artist’s purpose is served.

The Matisse Museum was a fascinating experience. I visited on a weekday with my friend, and it turned out to be such an inspiring place. I’m glad I had read a bit about its history beforehand — I think it’s worth going there with at least some preparation to fully appreciate it.

Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild is an elegant early 20th-century villa featuring nine distinct gardens that offer stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea. Situated in Cap Ferrat, it holds significant historical and cultural landmarks such as the Chapel of Saint Hospice and Villa La Fiorentina.
Absolutely magical! It’s every bit as beautiful as on pictures or even better. Wonderful place for a little morning-afternoon stroll - breathtaking views, beautiful gardens, tons of history and culture all in one place. We also visited the restaurant they have their and the food was also lovely (though nothing spectacular taste-wise).

This was the highlight of our entire trip, take a short bus ride from Beaulieu Sur Mer, it's worth loading Lignes Dazur as this can be used on both bus and trams in the area. Entry is up hill so I recommend comfortable shoes and clothing as there is quite a lot of walking to appreciate the villa and garden in full. Entry fee is 13 Euros per adult which is very reasonable considering there is no time limit and you can stroll round and appreciate the beautiful interior and exterior. They offer a guide device in several different languages, they do require a identification for these to be provided but it is very informative and provides detailed guides throughout each area which is numbered to ensure you are able to take in the history. Upstairs there is a short film about Béatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild. The gardens are beautiful, each have different themes and a wide range of unique plants, flowers, statues and photo perfect views.

It's location for a luxury villa cannot be battered. You have stunning views of two bays from this elevated position a hundred or so feet above the sea. The villa is beautifully built and well maintained with interesting gardens which are beautiful with huge numbers of plants, water features and colourful flowers. Even though the villa was only built in 1912 it feels due to the workmanship, especially the masonry carvings that it was built a hundred or so years earlier. It's not a particularly large residence (unlike Waddesdon Manor in England). This I understand was their 'winter residence' which I could quite happily live in! The sun is out, not a cloud in the sky, no breeze. It is truly a magical place

Then when u arrived there will be sign. Its a beautiful place they allow you to charge your phone there, honestly i dont have complain at all. I came when it was super sunny so it was lovely. Took a lot of pictures too. Theres student and special rates too, so book accordingly. I went on Tuesday, barely people it was bery nice

Absolutely stunning. Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild is one of the most beautiful and memorable places to visit on the French Riviera. If you’re anywhere near Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, make the time to go. The villa was built in the early 1900s by Baroness Béatrice de Rothschild. It’s filled with antiques, artwork, and rare porcelain, but the real highlight is outside. The gardens are on another level. There are nine of them, each with a different theme. The French garden has a beautiful fountains. The gardens are serene and beautifully designed. Every turn feels like a new discovery. What makes it even more special is the view. On one side, you see the Bay of Villefranche. On the other, the Bay of Beaulieu. You feel surrounded by water and sky, with the gardens stretching out in front of you. The villa itself is very well preserved. You get a strong sense of the baroness’s personality and taste. The audio guide is included with admission and adds just the right amount of detail without feeling too long. Plan to spend at least an hour and a half here. There’s also a café if you want to stop for a drink or a light bite. If you’re driving, try to arrive early since parking is limited. You can also get here easily by bus or taxi from nearby towns like Nice or Monaco. Whether you’re into history, architecture, gardens, or just beautiful places, this is worth every minute.

This beautiful belle epoch villa belonged to the Rothschild family. The villa is still originally furnished. The second highlight besides the villa are the gardens: nine separate gardens focus on roses, cacti, japanese plants, or succulents. There is a tearoom and a restaurant on site. Stunning views of the coast.

Nestled in the charming town of Eze, Alpes-Maritimes, Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur, France, Le Jardin Exotique is a breathtaking mountaintop garden that offers stunning views of the ocean.

A stunning garden with breathtaking views! This place is truly a must-see. The gardens are beautifully maintained, and the panoramic views are absolutely unforgettable.

This exotic garden with a panaromic view of the Cap-Ferrat Peninsula and an extensive selection of botanical plants is the most scenic thing in Côte d'Azur. There are multiple options to book tickets: online, a counter at the bottom of the Èze village, and at the entrance of the garden. Since mobile network was very weak, it is advisable to book tickets beforehand. The garden is very well place marked with labels of plants, statues, and view point guides of landmarks. It is advisable to enjoy the beauty of the nature by taking your own sweet time. There are lots of benches with cool shade to sit and relax. Also, there is a lot of historical context to this place. For example, the church was destroyed by severe lightning and thunderstorms, leaving behind only the yellow bell tower. Or how the viaduct road was the lifeline of this region. Happy exploring ☺️

The garden is full of cactus from different kinds and it's really nice.

What an amazing experience!! My wife and daughter and I have done a lot of hiking, but never with a pack animal. Indianna gave us a full explanation on walking and caring for our donkey, which put us right at ease during our self-guided three-day hike in late September this year. Her planned route for us showcased some beautiful and majestic sights of the southern Mercantour, and included two lovely campsites. And walking with our donkey 'Casimir' added a whole different, and rewarding dimension to hiking for us. He had a easy going demeanour and we thoroughly enjoyed travelling with him. Thank you, Indianna (and Casimir)!

Given the long journey, we decided to settle for a 1-hour lesson, but in the end, the little one (3 years old) didn't feel like going. No refunds or new sessions (credit notes) were possible. (Original) Déçu ! Malgré la sympathie des moniteurs. On nous a appelés à 9h pour annuler le PIOUPIOU de 11h (appel manqué, car on ne captait pas à ce moment-là sur la route venant d’Antibes). Arrivé sur place, on nous propose un remboursement ou un cours particulier. Avec la route, on décide de se rabattre sur un cours de 1 h, mais finalement, le petit (3 ans) ne se sens pas dit aller. Pas de remboursement ni de nouvelles séance (en avoir) possible.
