The experience
I didn’t expect to feel so much like a local just by hopping into a pedicab in Nice. Our driver (his name was Marc, I think) waved at someone as we set off from Massena Square, which made me laugh because it felt like he knew half the city. The seat was softer than I thought (I’d worried it would be like those rental bikes back home), and we rolled slowly past the fountains while Marc pointed out details in the architecture that I’d have missed on foot. The air smelled faintly of coffee and sea salt. It’s funny how you notice those things when you’re not rushing anywhere.
We wound through these impossibly narrow streets in Old Town, where shutters were all faded turquoise or bright yellow. Someone had strung laundry between two windows above us. At Cours Saleya flower market, Marc let us hop out for a bit (“Take your time!”). There was this mix of crushed petals underfoot and something citrusy in the air. I’m still not sure if it was lemons or just perfume drifting from one of the stalls. I tried to ask about a bouquet in French and got a smile from the vendor. My accent must’ve given me away.
The Promenade des Anglais felt different: open sky, gulls overhead, people rollerblading past while we took photos with that blue Mediterranean behind us. We stopped at Garibaldi Square too. Marc told us stories about Garibaldi himself (he did this dramatic gesture with his hands). Honestly, I kept forgetting to take pictures because I was too busy listening or just watching people go by. We even crossed Quai des États-Unis slowly enough that I could see couples leaning against the railings, sharing ice cream. The whole tour only took about 100 minutes but somehow it felt longer: in a good way.
