Nice Le Grand Tour

Nice Le Grand Tour is a special tourist service provided by the so-called Office du Tourisme et des Congres de Nice (the Tourism and Congress Board of Nice). It is a sort of hop on hop off tour pegged out by stops at some of the most celebrated attractions and tourist sights of the city.

The tour is made by means of roofless double-decker buses, and tickets can be purchased directly from the bus, from the tourist information offices or from hotels. They are valid for 24 and 48 hours, and prices vary according to their validity and to the person using the ticket. Discounts are, of course, available.

The chief advantage of Nice Le Grand Tour is tourists get a deeper sense of autonomy, since they get off the bus whenever they feel a certain sight is worth exploring in depth, only to get on the next bus.

By resorting to these tours, visitors are provided with headphones, so they can listen to the commentaries and the instructions in the language of their choice (the audio guide is conceived in 7 languages).

For complete information on the Nice Le Grand Tour, the three tourist information offices in Nice are a reliable source.

The tourist authority of Nice does not confine to organizing bus tours. It also makes available walking tours in Vieux Nice, as well as gastronomical incursions in the historical district of the city.
