One Week in Nice: Day-by-Day Plan and Day Trips
A week in Nice lets you explore the city at a comfortable pace and add several Côte d’Azur day trips. This flexible plan works with public transport.
Seven days on the Riviera
How to organise a week in Nice
Keep three days for Nice itself and alternate them with nearby trips. Check train times and the weather before leaving.
Days 1 to 3: Nice
Explore the centre, the Promenade des Anglais, Old Nice, Castle Hill, the port and Cimiez.
Day 4: Èze
Spend the day in Èze. Wear comfortable shoes for the steep village streets.
Day 5: Monaco
Travel by train and focus on the old town, the harbour and Monte-Carlo. Use our Monaco from Nice guide to set priorities.
Days 6 and 7: Antibes, Cannes or Menton
Choose Antibes for its ramparts and beaches, Cannes for the Croisette, or Menton for a colourful eastern day trip. Keep one day flexible.
For the first three days, open the Nice trip planner.
A hotel for exploring Nice on foot
Central areas and places near the tram make this itinerary easier. Compare availability, then check the hotel’s address.
