Swap the Riviera for snow on a full-day ski tour from Cannes or Nice to Isola 2000 or Auron. This guided outing includes transport, full rental, and resort lift pass for a crisp day in the Southern Alps.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You leave the Mediterranean behind as the road climbs, the salt air traded for a sharp alpine bite. By midmorning the bus unloads among chairlifts and powder-dusted pines — Isola 2000 or Auron depending on the day — and the mountain opens like a different world. Sunlight grabs the ridgelines; the wind teases fresh snow into crystals that glitter as if daring you to move.
