Plan your holiday to Nice
Budget
Nice's reputation for glamour doesn't have to mean expensive – particularly if you avoid peak summer. An inexpensive meal costs around 20 euros (€) and a coffee under €5. Walking or using public transport keeps costs down further. If you do need a taxi, a short ride should be under €12.
Getting around Nice
A tram from the airport brings you into the city in around 20 minutes. The local public transport network is run by Lignes d'Azur, with daily and weekly passes available. A car is generally unnecessary in walkable Nice, though it's useful for day trips. Trains depart from Nice-Ville, Nice-Riquier and Nice Saint-Augustin stations.
Day trips from Nice
For more of the French Riviera experience, Cannes is half an hour from Nice by train. For a more relaxed pace, Menton is the same journey time – tucked between the Alps and the Mediterranean, this pretty town is known for its old port, pastel-coloured houses and annual lemon festival.
