Thinking about traveling to the French Riviera? Why not experience winter in Nice, France? Believe it or not, that’s how the city became a tourist hotspot over 200 years ago!
Back then, wealthy northern Europeans—especially British aristocrats—escaped their cold, damp winters by heading south. Nice’s history as a winter resort even earned it a spot on the UNESCO World Heritage List a few years ago.
So, Anja & Aila decided to spend a day retracing the steps of those first vacationers. Join them as they soak up the charm that still makes Nice one of the coolest places to hibernate! ❄️☀️

Fell in love with Nice after working in very urban Paris. The vibe is so friendly, open hearted Mediterranean, but the culture suprised. Stunning Chagall and Matisse collections. And the Med is its own work of art. Nice is that perfect blend of urbanity, culture, food to die for. Thank you A&A at RiveraGo for being my guide. Brava, Brava.
You are guys fantastic ❤
Très belle vidéo 😍😍😍😍
Great video! I am visiting Nice in March—so excited to visit during the low season 😁
I have a question, my wife and me want to stay in Nice or surrounding area off season for a month or in a future up to 6 months. What is the most economical way to stay in a good area ? Short term rental? and do you have info on best platform to find that and what neighborhoods you recommend that you live like a local? Merci !
I would like to visit Nice in the spring around March/April/May. Are the prices still a bit lower then? I assume the prices are highest in the summer July-August months. Also, when do the beach cafes re-open?
I am currently spending a month in Nice for the winter; 2nd year in a row I’ve done that, and like your video states, it’s wonderful. Weather is great, no crowds and easy access to everything. I saw the Matisse museum last year and walked around the Hotel Regina. Definitely worth the trip! I keep hoping to see you filming a video. I promise I will say hello if I do. 😎
I'm so glad , I can see yours video, love you ladies, with love from New Jersey, USA.
la ville de mes vacances lorsque j'étais enfant .Toute la journée a la plage juste devant l'hôtel Negresco.

My favourite channel on YouTube …the best !!!!🎉🎉🎉
You guys's videos are always THE BEST. Very original and full of history culture good places to eat…Wow, I love it .THANK YOU SO MUCH Merci Beaucoup 💝💝💝
Thank you guys ❤
Thanks very much, you ladies are the most informative channel I found about French Riviera and I'm heading there in a week's time.
I visited Nice for Christmas, had a great time. I wasn't there for long, only 4 nights but I also managed to visit Villefranche-sur-Mer and Antibes, both beautiful.
The only thing I found a bit annoying was on my first day in Nice, when I walked to the Colline du Château and saw the viewpoint, there were quite a few aeroplanes flying over it… I think that ruined the vibe a bit. Is that a regular thing?
Love your channel !! I'm planing early retirement in Europe so I can be close to places like this. Your videos only convince me more ! Thank you 🧡
Thanks for the video ❤
I was in Nice in July and it was really hot and crowded so I am planning to come back in the winter season or late fall. I’m kinda looking forward to it. Thank you for the video.❤
Really nice video, well made & informative with great cinematic shots. Excited to check out Nice for the first time, hopefully soon! 🙂
Great vidéo, thank you girls 😊
