Know before you drive in Nice
Nice's Old Town (Vieux Nice) is pedestrian and narrow — park in a garage and explore on foot.
A car is ideal for the French Riviera coastal drive: Monaco, Èze, Antibes and Cannes are all close.
The Corniche coastal roads are scenic but winding, so allow extra time and drive carefully.
Guides for Nice
Before you book
Deposit
Most companies block a deposit on a credit card in the main driver's name. Local agencies often ask for less. Check the amount before you book.
Excess
Basic insurance usually leaves an excess of several hundred euros. Full or zero-excess cover removes it, at a daily cost.
Fuel policy
Choose full-to-full. Full-to-empty means paying the company's fuel price for a tank you rarely use up.
