Short break to Nice

Louisa_K, Oct 2026
Really disappointed as the bus never turned up and we waited for ages just in case it was running late....

No access to a QR code or ability to add to wallet

Marcia_W, Oct 2026
No QR code sent almost refused entry driver eventually let us in when he could Dre we had the app email etc

Not the best tour

Renee_Y, Oct 2026
Not a good tour. The route did not pass several of the points of interest the tour advertised—for example, the Russian Orthodox Church. The tour talked about the building and a short history but never drove by the church. Also, the audio did not sinc properly either the location. We found self-guided walking tours much more interesting and enjoyable.

A bit boring and short. Not really worth the price nor the time. Better off taking a public bus. Driver not very engaging. Granted, Nice is relatively small but more areas should have been covered.

One of the better hop on...

LarryShanbrom, Oct 2026
One of the better hop on hop off busses in terms of the condition of the vehicle, but the route is just too short to justify the cost

Bad surprise

Tim_K, Sep 2026
Great orientation to the area. We had our second lap jump off location planned until our driver surprised us with HIS hour+ lunch stop..,

Great way to see Nice....

Andrew_D, Sep 2026
Great way to see Nice. Covers a good distance around the town and beyond. The commentary was informative.

Nice Hop On Hop Off

Charlene_R, Sep 2026
Gives you a good layout of the city so you can see places you want to visit. Ran close to schedule time.

Spectacular Views Always a Great Way to See any City

Maria_B, Sep 2026
Our group was very happy with the Hop on Hop off tour. We thought we had already seen the beautiful highlights of Nice, however the bus took us along the coast past the marina area to small towns and areas that we did know existed. The sights were spectacular we recommend it. The bus drivers made us feel very safe with their driving experience.

We never made it to take the tour in Nice

Paul_H, Sep 2026
I googled where the starting point was and it said theatre de verdure. I put that in as destination for Uber and it took me 60 miles away in Feyance. I messaged the tour operator before we left but received no response.

Great overview of Nice!

Bobbi_L, Sep 2026
We enjoyed getting a preview of Nice upon our arrival to the city! The ability to tour Nice , getting on & off the bus, to further determine where we would like to spend additional time was great!

I enjoyed the route...

Andrea_P, Sep 2026
I enjoyed the route especially the port area but wasted a lot of time trying to find the pick up points. Not mapped. So I had to guess

Nice Sightseeing Bus

Gillian_M, Sep 2026
Excellent way to view Nice including Marina and Villefranche-sur-Mer. Hope on and off as much as you would like. Leaves from central location on Promenade.

The pick points are...

anthony_g, Jul 2026
The pick points are unclear,not on time,the website fails to provide the need information. The audio failed to work and the ones that did work it was hard to hear.

Tricky sign posts!

Jacqueline_C, Jul 2026
Having been on several of these Hop on hop off bus trips and had a good experience sadly I can only give this one 3 *.. This is due to the poorly signposted stops! It took me and my partner several hours to find one and when we eventually alighted the bus and went round the 'tourist' circuit each stop had no obvious signage indicating it was a Hop on Hop off stop. This, when walking in high heat, was a real problem that could be so easily rectified with good and clear signage which we have always encountered on our many previous trips. I would recommend this trip to others but with the added caveat about the difficult to find stops.

Nice tour with a few exceptions

Christine_B, Jul 2026
Great tour in general. But would like to have had more time in places. Especially Exe. Felt rushed to get back to bus. But these towns are so beautiful with so much to see and experience, it would have been nice to have more time. Salvador was a great guide and driver. Overall I recommend it as you do get to see a lot of places along the French Riviera in one day. Maybe if it had started an hour earlier and went an hour longer. And could have skipped the parfum factory. It was nice to be picked up at my hotel and returned to the same spot. :)

The tour itself is fine....

Rui_C, Jun 2026
The tour itself is fine. It’s the absence of warning that the second day of the 2 day ticket I bought was suspended due to the Nice Ironman. Paid for two days but was only able to use it for one day.

Bus tour

Gillian_C, Jun 2026
Hard to locate pick up points as poor signage. Didn’t feel I got a tour of Nice as the route went back along same way and trip to Villefranche.took up too much of trip

Don't waste your money!

RussRingl, Jun 2026
We have been on at least 6 hop on/off busses throughout Europe, as it's a great way to get a feel for a city. This by far was the worst experience we have had. First...it was billed as a 90 minute tour...the tour was 45 minutes start to finish. Second, if got off to see something and you missed getting back on the bus by a minute, you had at least a 45 minute wait for another bus. I would NOT recommend this tour...it really was a waste of money

Nice hop on bus trip around the city was relaxing and informative for an inexpensive price with headset provided to p👌

Nicola_A, May 2026
It was a lovely ride and highly recommended to see a lot of the area in a short time. Absolutely would do it early in day to have opportunity to hop on and off at different stops.

We got off at the Russian Orthodox church which was pretty, and at the Viile Franche, which is spectacular!

Sheryl_G, May 2026
Open air upstairs or air conditioning in the enclosed lower level. Multiple languages, free headsets. Ticket is good for the whole day.

Never saw a bus

Karen_H, May 2026
Waited 2 hours in the area and the bus never came. Walked to the stop before it and the bus was no where to be seen. I never saw the bus. I have been here a few more days and have yet to see these buses anywhere.

Look for any other options

Wendy_J, May 2026
We waited by the bus door at the first stop but the driver never opened the door and proceeded to drive off before finally stopping to let us on. He was very rude and cursing under his breath. At the next stop he didn’t stop long enough for anyone to get on or off. We had to ask for him to stop to let us off and he again was incredibly rude and cursing. He also drove too fast for any decent pictures to be taken. Not sure if he was having a bad day or what but definitely the wrong job for him. We only spent ~20 minutes on the bus before deciding to get off because of his behavior and the fact that the audio was nearly illegible. Highly recommend you avoid especially if it is the same driver we had (will attempt to add picture if possible).

Route was good but audio...

Todd_H, Apr 2026
Route was good but audio often talked about things you couldn’t see. About an hour between buses was a bit long if you hop off

Perfect way to see city

Deborah_C, Apr 2026
Great way to see the city. Bus was affordable. Liked that it also had route to Villa Franche Sur Mer

Excellent tour

Shawn_L, Apr 2026
Excellent guided tour of Nice. Comprehensive tour with lots of great info about the city. Well worth a second or third trip. Spectacular views of the city and the bay.

Great intro into Nice

Jennifer_C, Jan 2026
A good way to get an overview of Nice. Villafranche is very pretty. Busses are very clean. Only downside is that stops aren't that easy to identify.

Great way to get your bearings.

Jennifer_C, Jan 2026
Very clean busses, friendly staff. Journey to Villafranche is very pretty. It's a great way to get a feel and sense of direction.

Not good value for money at this time of year!

Karen_m, Nov 2025
Only one bus! Tracking does not work so you have no idea when the bus will turn up. Everyone gets thrown off at stop one. Not good value for money at all.

A great day with a great driver. Small group.

Birgit_M, Nov 2025
This is really what Americans call value for money. We had a very nice tour with Driton the driver. We were only three people on an afternoon trip five hours. The driver was extremely helpful. Could explain very well. It was very interesting to see Monaco and Monte Carlo and Ville france and Eze. Parfume factory was least exciting when doing a tour. In Nice, do this.
