Cultural Tour of Nice & the French Riviera
Nice & the French Riviera is a destination of extraordinary cultural depth. The French Riviera is glamour made geography — a 115-mile Mediterranean coastline where Belle Époque hotels, Michelin-starred restaurants, and turquoise water have drawn the world's most celebrated visitors for over a century.
The Wedding Unicorn plans cultural tours to Nice & the French Riviera that go far beyond the surface — private access to historic sites before crowds arrive, expert local historians and curators as guides, cooking classes with chefs who represent genuine culinary tradition, and encounters with local families and artisans that transform travel into education.
The Côte d'Azur is where old money, movie stars, and Mediterranean sunsets conspire to create the world's most glamorous coastline.
