Evening Swim

and Picnic

We will meet in Nice and drive to one of the nicest beaches of the French Riviera, in Saint Jean Cap Ferrat. We will go for a swim (we provide diving masks to also discover the sea life, and a sub paddle). 
We will also share some drinks and delicious traditional and local snacks and enjoy together an evening picnic. 
All this, while giving you all the good tips to enjoy your stay on the French Riviera!

French Card Games

and Board Games

Instead of staring at a small game on your cell phone, let’s connect over some tea, handmade pastries and some French card games! Everywhere we go, we always travel with a deck of cards, since it’s the greatest way to pass the time and have a laugh in the process. Here, we’ll teach you the French game of “belote”, and even some board games that are delightfully easy to travel with.

Playing Pétanque

and Apéritif

This is the classic French game where players throw silver balls at the ground,  trying to land them near a target. And if you’ve ever wanted to play, now is your chance! 
Together, we’ll go over the rules, explore the tradition of the sport and even practice some “expert” techniques!

Then, of course, we’ll play… and there will be also some delicious
 French baking from us!

Galet (Pebbles)

Painting

Beaches in Nice are home to beautiful waters and lovely bays. They’re also home to thousands and thousands of small rocks! This has given birth to a fascinating trend of Galet (Pebble) painting!

We’ll bring the paint, some tea and snacks, and you just bring your creative juices.

After our session, you’ll have a handcrafted souvenir to bring home and cherish for years to come.
