Enjoy life in the French Riviera with a community of travel lovers.
Nice rewards lingering. In two easygoing weeks, you’ll settle into its Mediterranean rhythm—morning markets at Cours Saleya, palm-lined promenades, pastel façades—share meals with fellow travelers, and feel at home on the Côte d’Azur.
