Top French Riviera Hiking Tours

This shore excursion combines a short ferry crossing from Toulon with a scenic coastal loop on Cap Sicié. We meet at the Toulon pontoon, cross the harbor by boat, then continue toward the Fabrégas area to start the hike. The route follows rugged Mediterranean shoreline with cliffside paths, hidden coves, and wide open sea panoramas. Key stops usually include Plage de Malpasset, the former Cap Sicié semaphore for one of the best viewpoints in the area, and Fort Peyras, where we pause for stories about coastal defense and local maritime history. Expect around 9 km of hiking with moderate elevation and plenty of time for photos and breaks. The exact route may be adjusted if coastal sections are temporarily closed due to swell, landslides, or seasonal fire-risk restrictions.

A historian by training, I invite you to explore the most beautiful streets of Nice. Let's start with Boulevard Victor Hugo, drawn in 1832 by the city's Beautification Council. We will discover the emblematic remains of the Belle Époque, a period which saw the erection of numerous buildings in Nice, often called “palaces”. The Musicians’ Quarter is a striking example. It illustrates the grandeur of this era, marked by the presence of European and Russian nobility. I offer you exclusive tours of the Russian church which is the first built in France and the one which is the last built during the time of the tsars. These buildings contain treasures from this period. Between visits, we will explore some architectural gems of the Belle Époque and taste local products.
