Participants will engage in a city-exploration game using their phones to discover Nice at their own pace. This activity is suitable for groups looking for an interactive and educational experience. Players assist Jackson Wilde, a fictional city-explorer, by solving quizzes to earn points. The game includes visits to 10 locations: Cathedral of Saint Nicholas, Basilica of Notre-Dame, Tête Carrée, Garibaldi Square, Cathedral of Saint Reparata, Masséna Square, Opera, Promenade des Anglais, Colline du Château, and Port Lympia. The app is available for download on Android and iOS, or can be accessed through a web browser. Participants should be aware that this is a self-guided activity.
The square is named after Giuseppe Garibaldi, the Italian general and national hero who played a significant role in the unification of Italy. Garibaldi was born in Nice.
The cathedral is dedicated to Saint Reparata, the patron saint of Nice, whose relics were brought to the city in the 9th century.
Place Masséna is renowned for its architecture and for the large fountain featuring a statue of Apollo.
The Promenade des Anglais, often referred to simply as "La Prom," was constructed in the early 19th century. It was funded by the English aristocracy who frequented Nice during the winter months, hence the name "Promenade of the English."
