Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best time of year to visit Nice?
The best time to visit Nice is during the spring (April to June) and fall (September to October), when the weather is mild and the crowds are fewer. The Mediterranean climate offers sunny days perfect for exploring, with less humidity and more comfortable temperatures than the summer months. For those seeking the Mediterranean beach experience, the summer months (July and August) are ideal, though it can get quite busy.
How many days should I spend in Nice?
We recommend spending at least 3–4 days in Nice to fully appreciate its charm. This gives you enough time to explore the old town, relax on the beach, visit local museums, and discover the surrounding French Riviera. If you plan to explore nearby towns like Monaco or Antibes, consider extending your stay to 5–7 days for a more relaxed pace.
Do you charge a fee for creating a custom trip to Nice?
Yes, we charge a planning fee for crafting your custom trip to Nice. This fee covers our dedicated time and expertise in curating a personalized itinerary tailored to your preferences.
