THE BEST ACTIVITIES IN SPRING YOU CAN DO IN NICE
Spring is just around the corner in Nice, and we’ve come up with some of the best activities you can do during the season. From ceramic cafés and escape games to cookery classes and rock climbing, there’s something to suit everyone’s taste!
THE MUSEUM OF ILLUSIONS
Who hasn’t been intrigued by that long queue on the pedestrian precinct? But what’s behind those doors? A playful world where anything is possible, indeed totally surreal! Our reality is warped and our senses put to the test… Between halls of deceiving perspectives and dazzling optical illusions, get ready to question everything you see! Head to the Museum of Illusions, Place Masséna, for an extraordinary experience. A word of advice: don’t trust your eyes completely…
THE SENSORY JOURNEY
Immerse yourself in total darkness and let your senses take over at Sensas. An experience full of new sensations, where every movement, every sound and every smell becomes an unforgettable adventure that will put you to the test! Perfect for spending time with your loved ones, whether it’s an hen night, a stag do or a birthday party. Laughter and challenges guaranteed! Ready to challenge yourselves in a whole new way?
THE CERAMIC CAFÉ
It’s THE trend of the moment on social media! The matcha girls have pulled it off, and we’re all keen to try out the ceramic café experience and channel our inner clean girl – in other words, someone who favours a perfectly healthy lifestyle – for a few hours. Head to Palette & Tartelette in Gorbella, a colourful place worthy of our Pinterest feeds, to learn about this new concept and take home your own creation. The programme includes a pottery painting workshop and a trendy drink!
THE MIXOLOGY WORKSHOP
Tired of paying too much for your cocktails? Why not learn to make them yourselves so you can enjoy evenings with friends at home? The Bar Saint Nicolas, at the Port of Nice, offers mixology classes to turn you into an expert. Who knows? Maybe this experience will inspire you to take up new hobbies or activities in the world of mixology! Check out the Bar Saint Nicolas Instagram account, @saintnicolas_nice, where you’ll find the weekly cocktail and tapas menu, as well as upcoming events.
THE LIFE-SIZE EXPLORATION GAME
The Metropolitan Tourist Office has come up with a new way of discovering Nissa la Bella through 21 exploration trails, combining activity and discovery. The “My Adventure” concept is simple: download an application, pick up your bag and set off on an adventure, solving a number of fun puzzles. It’s a life-size game that has already won over many curious participants thanks to its well-thought-out nomadic concept.
THE QUIZ
Who hasn’t dreamt of reliving the excitement of the TV shows of our childhood? MLQUIZ has done it! Based in the Arenas district, this unique concept plunges you into a fun and interactive competition across several themes: Blind Test – Mini Games – Quiz Game. A word of advice: be quick, every second counts!
THE PERFUME CREATION WORKSHOP
A sensory activity that’s bound to make your head spin! Parfum & Vous offers an immersive journey into the world of perfume through the history, know-how and secrets of great noses. For a few hours, step into the shoes of a perfumer and create a unique fragrance that reflects your personality. Whether you’re with your family, your partner or your friends, it’s a fun experience that’s all about your sense of smell!
THE CLIMB
Tested and approved on our social media, this spot has risen to the challenge with flying colours, offering a unique concept in Nice. A shop that brings together the latest trends in streetwear and climbing clothing, a gourmet eatery featuring fresh local produce, and climbing routes to suit all levels and tastes. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned climber, Arkose Nice Valley is the place to be for combining sport, style and good company.
THE ESCAPE GAME
Some time ago, we talked about the brand-new Harry Potter escape game on our social media… Today, it’s time to explore new worlds at Aventure – Escape Game, just near the Negresco. A plunge into a haunted house, a time-travel journey aboard an airship, and a fantasy town worthy of a comic strip. But there’s more to this concept! The experience becomes even more immersive with outdoor escape games where zombies, psychopaths and supernatural creatures come to life. All in the middle of the forest, at night… Thrills and laughter guaranteed!
