    Nice: Get lost in old town \ud83c\udfd6\ufe0f<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    We begin our journey in a land of sun, beaches \ud83c\udfd6\ufe0f and cicadas: Nice<\/strong>. The drive starts along the coast on the famous Promenade des Anglais<\/strong>. Despite the name, nobody drives on the left, and the main spoken language is not English. Follow the road nestled between the beach and the prestigious hotels and enjoy the sights along the coast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After a few minutes on this memorable avenue, we recommend that you to take your first break during your French Riviera road trip<\/strong>. Park your car to begin exploring the city by foot.<\/p>\n\n\n
