Travel: Nice

I visited Nice in October and I have delayed making a full post about my trip because to begin with the experience was down right awful.

This was not due to the city itself or any of the sights, rather the hotel that we were staying at to begin with. On the day we arrived the first evening we went out for food someone went into our room and stole from my friend. (I thankfully had all of my valuables on me).

Nice Le Banthai Restaurant

While in Nice we visited a few restaurants and found some firm favourites for food. One of these was Le Banthai in the Old Town.

As you can probably guess the food they had on offer was Thai food. We had walked past this restaurant a couple of times and the aromas wafting out of the door were mouthwatering.

Travel: Nice Market

While in Nice we visited the market they have looking for some souvenirs and bargains. The market runs down a strip in between restaurants in the old town and had lots of potential gift ideas and food. Which is always a must!

Tour of Galimard Parfumerie

One of the tours we had while in Nice was a trip round the Galimard Parfumerie in Eze-village on the way to Monaco.

While here we were given a tour round where they explained how different perfumes were made and we were shown the process.

Nice: Day Out in Monaco

Another of our many day trips out was to Monaco, this was something we had booked in advance as part of a guided tour.

They took us to Monaco ville and Monte Carlo, no sights were included but we had time in the tour to go visit them.

A Day in Cannes

While in Nice we took a day trip out to Cannes known for the glitzy film festival and stunning scenery.

We lucked out and the weather was sunny and incredibly warm. We were hoping to have a tour of the Palais des Festivals but happened to visit while there was a business conference on.
