Nice & the French Riviera with your class
Nice is the perfect base: the Matisse and Chagall museums sit within the city, while the coast beyond is studded with more — Picasso in Antibes, perfume houses in Grasse, the medieval village of Èze, the principality of Monaco. The city's markets, cafés and daily rhythm immerse students in spoken French far more effectively than any classroom, while regional specialities like socca and salade niçoise give the experience real flavour.
On the Move is the officially accredited school trips provider for the European Schools in Belgium — every trip has a dedicated project manager with 24/7 emergency support.
Trip highlights
The Matisse Museum and the Marc Chagall National Museum sit within Nice itself — the artists lived and worked here, and seeing the work in the light and landscape that inspired it changes the way students see modern art
The ochre lanes and bustling Cours Saleya market of Vieux Nice, Castle Hill for sweeping views over the Baie des Anges, and the famous Promenade des Anglais along the seafront — Nice's daily rhythm immersing students in spoken French
Monaco and Monte-Carlo, the medieval hilltop village of Èze, or Antibes and its Picasso collection — a coastal day that shows students how landscape, light and culture shaped a whole movement in modern art
