Hertz Car Rental in Nice
Way down in the south-eastern corner of France, the city, seaside resort and provincial capital of Nice stands between Cannes and Monte Carlo on the world-famous French Riviera. Renting a car in Nice is recommended so you can tour all the sight of this large sprawling city easily and escape to visit neighbouring resorts, like Antibes and Monte Carlo. Inland, you’ll have the chance to drive into the foothills of the Alpes-Maritimes for fantastic views. Getting around is quick thanks to the A8 motorway just inland from the city. This whisks you to the west or east, avoiding the worst of the tourist jams.
Nice has been a popular international visitor attraction since Victorian days when it was the Mediterranean climate that attracted Britons. You can still spot the grand old holiday villas from that era and the main palm-fringed seafront walkway is still called The Promenade des Anglais. If you’re renting a car in Nice, you’ll be able to drive to some of the more exclusive areas too, like Cap d’Antibes and St Jean-Cap-Ferrat. Be sure to spend some time exploring the Old Town’s maze of narrow streets. You’ll find charming, bustling street life around the market stalls, shops, cafes and bars here.
