BA Luncheon - Lou Balico - Nice

  • Lou Balico 20 Avenue Saint-Jean-Baptiste Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, 06000 France (map)

This time it´s all about Nizza.

11.30 we will all meet outside "Crypte of Nice", 1 Place Jaques Troja, close to Place Garribaldi. 

 When the Nice tram was built 2006 the Crypt of Nice was discovered.

Here you can imagine Nice as it was between the 13th and 16th centuries; a stronghold and important frontier town.

Audio guide, only 2 in English but if we are lucky, some more maybe....

Entrance 5€ paid direct by card or cash to me at the place (even money).

 From the museum a short walk to the restaurant

How do we get there?
I will be on The Train that leaves Gare de Menton at 09:51. Buy return tickets.

In Nice we walk together to the tramstation "Gare Thiers". You have to have a special Nice-card but you get it from the machine. Buy 2 tickets on your card for the return and keep it for next time. We jump off at "Garribaldi".
This excursion does not involve a lot of stairs or a lot of walking, (if everything works as it should, but it´s always tiring to visit a big city.

We go home from Nice as we wish each one of you. If there’s some space left in my stomach before I go home, I stop at "Arlequin gelato" for a Dubai ice-cream. A little walk from Gare Thiers.

Hope to spend an exiting day in your company.
