Getting arround

🚆 Train — cheap & fast (when it runs) The TER from Nice-Ville is your best bet for Antibes (25 min), Cannes (35 min) and Monaco (20 min). Affordable and frequent — but expect delays, cancellations, and serious crowds in summer at almost any hour. Sweet spots: early afternoon and evenings tend to be calmer.

Skip the machines at the station — download the SNCF Connect app before you go, the queues can be brutal.

🚌 Bus 100 — scenic & cheap The slow, beautiful coastal road to Monaco. Non-negotiable window seat on the right side heading east. Don't take it if you're in a hurry. But less people and way much nicier view.

🚗 BlaBlaCar / Uber / Bolt Reliable alternatives when the train lets you down — which it will. Bolt is often cheaper than Uber on the Riviera. Worth checking both before booking. Blablacar it's a share car Ideal to do small trip to Marseille or Aix-en-Provence, fast and nice.

🚗 Rent a car
Best way to explore the backcountry, hidden coves and villages off the beaten track. Book in advance in summer — it sells out fast. Check Getaround or Carentals for the best deals.
