Are you traveling to Nice or Cannes and looking to explore the surrounding areas of the French Riviera? Will you be relying solely on public transportation? Then this is the guide for you!

My suggestions and tips come from firsthand experience of spending two weeks in the South of France in April 2023. This guide will be an informational reference point that’s affordable, realistic, and achievable! I’ll cover how to get to each of these eight destinations, what to expect, and how to make the most of your time.

🚊👣 Less than a 10 minute train ride from Nice located in the next cove over. The station lets you out right at the beach where you can follow the path into town.

⛵️🌳 Crystal clear water and beautiful sailboats anchored on the edge of town. Situated on the edge of stone fortress, the Jardins de la Citadell is home to a rich, colorful garden with coastal views.

🍺🍦 The orange, pink, and yellow buildings are filled with restaurants, bars, and shops. I stopped at a few: Achill’s Restaurant & Bar, Glacier Feracci, and La Praia.
