Why you're safe with the holiday experts

DERTOUR is part of the DERTOUR GmbH group of Frankfurt - one of the world's leading tour operators . We also hold our own ATOL and are members of ABTA.

We've been creating perfect tailor-made holidays to the heart of Europe for 50 years. A lot has changed in that time, but one thing that has always remained the same is our total focus on serving you in the very best way that we can. This includes ensuring your satisfaction and security. It's why DERTOUR is fully licenced with our own ATOL and is also adheres to all the rules and principles of ABTA.

ATOL is a financial protection scheme for holidaymakers travelling on an air inclusive holiday, which is managed by the Civil Aviation Authority. This protects you from losing your money or from being stranded overseas in the very unlikely event that DERTOUR should go out of business. Our Air Travel Organiser's Licence (ATOL) number is ATOL 1839.

When you buy an ATOL protected air inclusive holiday* from us, you will receive a confirmation invoice from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements and your protection under our ATOL.

* The air inclusive holidays we arrange are ATOL protected providing either the person who pays for the booking is present in the UK when the booking is made or the first leg of any flight or flights we arrange for you commences in the UK. For further information, visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk

Shopping in Nice is a must! Numerous different markets and little shops provide typical regional products, but the larger stores offer the internationally influential French fashions.

All in all Nice has about 7,000 shops which provide something for every taste and budget. The majority are to be found in the city centre. Charming little shops offer the regional highlights such as olive oil and typical sweets.

The Flower Market Marché aux Fleurs is an experience not to be missed. From Tuesday to Sunday various wonderful plants and flowers can be admired and purchased.

The Marché à la Brocante is a popular flea market with a wide variety of wares available and is opened every Monday.

The restaurant La Réserve serves excellent French specialties with a unique view of the sea. During their stay guests can watch the ships in the restaurant through the huge windows or from the wonderful terrace.

The bar La part des Anges is famous for its wine, but there are also small restaurants inside. Guests have the opportunity to order wine in glasses - in France it is more common to order whole bottles - however this means that guests can sample a range of excellent wine. The platters of cold meat are recommended as well as the cheese with bread and the risotto.

Reasonably priced for the region is the Chez Christine on the rue Pairoliere in Old Nice. The pasta menus start at about €9 and include a glass of wine and water and also a dessert.

The Museum of Art and History in the Palais Masséna features contrasting landscapes both in intensity and character. The modern museum contains collections over 3 levels in 23 rooms, and favours a chronological, historical and thematic approach. All in all about 15,000 works of art can be found there, covering the most significant historical events of Nice from Bonaparte and the Napoleonic Empire (1793-1815) until the thirties.

Wonderful buildings from the 17^th and 18^th centuries can be found across the city. For example the City Hall was built in 1730 and was used as diocesan seminary, hospital and barracks. The Opera is a typical example of Second Empire architecture, which was inaugurated after a large fire in 1881.

The largest church in Nice is the Basilisque Notre Dame. It is also the oldest of the modern religious structures erected in the heart of the new town after the Comté de Nice became part of France.

The beaches of Nice are one of the highlights of the city. The best one's can be found in Antibes and Juan los Pins. Along the wonderful Mediterranean seaside numerous restaurants, cafés and boat rental shops are located.

Only 20 minutes away from Nice is the lovely city of Cannes, which is well known for its annual film festival in May. Nice and Cannes are conveniently connected by bus and train.
