Since July 27, 2021, 522 hectares of the city of Nice have been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as the “Winter Resort Town of the Riviera.” This includes a vast area that showcases the city’s evolution as a global tourism capital dedicated to winter climatic resorts.

This themed tour can be taken in three different ways (the sites visited vary depending on the tour):

- Walking tour - 2. 5 hours

An excellent way to see the highlights of Nice, focusing on the intriguing history of the Old Town with its beautiful colorful facades, and the Castle Hill with its magnificent panoramic views. (Be prepared to climb 300 steps to reach the Castle Hill.) The tour will end at the top of the hill.

- Electric bike - 3 hours

The bike tour will let you explore the waterfront, but also cover longer distances to the magnificent Belle Époque neighborhood of Cimiez with its majestic palaces and ornate villas, as well as the largest and most important Orthodox cathedral in Western Europe with its golden domes.

- Segway - 3 hours

A great way to enjoy a leisurely ride along the waterfront, explore the Old Town with its beautiful colorful facades and narrow streets steeped in history, and admire the most stunning views of the Baie des Anges from the Colline du Château.
