I spent almost two weeks in Nice last summer as a solo traveler and had a wonderful visit! The people were friendly and I felt safe (minus one time I was being followed by a man in a crowd). Just pay attention and you will be fine. I took the train to many surrounding towns and got to check out a lot of the other beaches in the area. I did go to the pebble beach in Nice once, and I had a padded beach mat so it was not too uncomfortable, though I do recommend water shoes. :) People always talk about how Nice is expensive and it certainly can be-especially if you go out to fancy restaurants every day-but I actually found it to be not too bad. I stayed in an Airbnb and cooked some of my meals there or prepared them and brought them to the beach for a picnic. I was planning to take a vacation here in the US this summer, but it actually turned out to be less expensive for me to go back to Nice, so I’ll be enjoying another visit there! For fellow Americans, don’t let European locations scare you off-a lot of times traveling in Europe can be the same price or less as staying in the states. Happy travels!

Nice and the whole riviera region is one of the nicest areas in Europe. There are just so many options around: beach, culture, great hiking places and even ski resorts closeby + fast access to other neighbouring countries (1h flight to Barcelona and Italy just a 50 min train ride away) and the landscape is absolutely stunning. I love all the little villages and towns between Nice and Ventimiglia ( Villefranche sur mer, Eze village, Eze sur mer, Menton...and of course Ventimiglia too!). Monaco is definitely worth a visit too but maybe too bling bling and packed for my taste. It just looks way too much like a luxury commercial instead of an approachable place but I guess that's what makes it appealing to many. The almost unrealness of it. I actually like the rocky beaches in Nice. You don't get sand everywhere after a day on the beach and with the watershoes on it's easy to walk on the beach and go swimming.

Nice is just the best city in the World. Sweet weather, warm sea, beautiful landscapes, mountains all around and ski at 1 hour by car, lovely mix of italian, french, english and even russian architecture, city center is full of life, restaurants, shops, but you also have beautiful and peaceful houses and appartments all around on the hills, a lot of parks for kids and to relax or just do sport, and often with an amazing view on the beach/sea.

My wife had an annual business trip that use to take her to a convention in Nice and every trip she used the chance to stock up on “Huile d’Oliva” or olive oil. The shop was Olio Donato and the family hand pressed their own olive oils flavoring it with “Herbs de Provence” and also have a little small minced truffles in the oil from Piedmont Italy. OMG. We would cook with that oil and no matter what we cook it tasted soooo good. So because of covid we have had our Olio Donato but we tell everyone we know who are going to Nice to find that shop and get that olive oil. Yum!!! We would get the maximum amount we could take home from customs. Some smuggle drugs internationally my wife and I smuggle truffle infused extra virgin olive oil herbes Provence.

The old town part (Vieux Nice) was my favourite. There you can have a taste of local food and find the most delicious ice cream too. The eastern part of the city is very lively, plenty of character and easy to visit by tram. What I liked less on the other hand is that between the city centre and the airport there was a large area which felt like a bit of a... wasteland. But that was 15 years ago, I hope this will have changed now with the extension of tramway services.

@deniaridley 3 года назад

Absolutely agree, EXCEPT depending when this was filmed, the train station is no longer the seedy place spoken of. Plus, folks should also check out all the local Niçois cuisine, not just the seafood of course. :-) There is a rich history here as it was only recently (in European terms) annexed to France in the 1860's. You will see and taste and even hear about that while here if you talk to the locals. Just start by asking what goes into a Salade Niçoise and let the debate, hand flying, and myriad of recipes begin! LOL There's definitely an "Italian feel" to the city and the Alpes-Maritimes department in general, for lack of a better term. On a side note, Nice has it's own language in the Occitan family proudly displayed on the street signs in the Old Town. Unfortunately, it's spoken by fewer and fewer each generation.

I am just back from Nice and used the train station several times (interrailing) so was a bit bemused by his comment. It didn’t occur to us that it was in any way seedy. Take the usual precautions though as we saw a guy realise he had been pickpocketed by a girl on getting on the metro seconds before, she had exited at the last station.

You can use ride apps like Uber or Bolt around Nice and know upfront what you're going to pay. I used Bolt a few times, and the drivers were all very nice. When they showed up (we had a problem getting picked up at the airport, so we switched to Uber). The bike culture is phenomenal around Nice - you can ride to Antibes (and further) on dedicate bike lanes along the coast, and you see lots of people on bikes in the city. We just spent a month near Nice (Roquebrune-Cap-Martin) from mid-October to mid-November, and the weather was generally really good. We took a dip in the Mediterranean in November and it wasn't that cold (but the rocky beaches are a big bummer).

Also, don't go when the Cannes Film Festival and the Gran Prix are going on as there will be fewer people and the hotel rates will be less gouge-y. April and early May for example, while the summer months are traditional vacation times and so don't go at that time.

I worked there in a Summer a long time ago. At that time, I could stay in a really cheap hotel, and it wasn't that expensive. Like everything, maybe that is gone. I remember there were all sorts of places for a nice breakfast outdoors, and I did the wine-fish dinner thing in the Old Town section. I remember there were some interesting ruins there (Greek, I think). There was a lavish French spectacle show at the Hotel Negresco. I couldn't afford the really good restaurants, and my French was so so; but I was young and could live alone. It wasn't exactly roughing it. I did go swimming, so you could rent a spot on the beach at sort of a beach club. There were lots of steak-frites places. The weather was lovely. There was some sort of big parade in the Summer, with floats.. almost like a Mardi Gras. I don't remember what the occasion was. I had a good time. And, yes, the local food is good, too. I must say too that the French people I met were mostly very pleasant. I wish I had been a little braver trying to speak French. I could read everything, and mostly understand people, if they spoke slowly enough; but I was embarrassed about my grammar, even though I had a fair amount of French in high school and college in the States.

@milhanou229 Год назад

Where are the ruins you are talking about? If they were on the hill of Cimiez a bit far from the city center, and there were a small colliseum, a park and museums, then they are roman ruins of the ancient city of Cemenelum. I don't think there are any well preserved greek ruins in Nice although the Greek did found the city (where the castle hill is today).

First of all, St. Tropez is far from Nice. Secondly, the people ARE nice here.

@@deniaridley, your opinion is valid, all of us have different experiences and it could be just the particular individuals in Nice that I ran into, so my generalized statement of “everybody” could be inaccurate. But this is just based on my travel experience. From the six continents that I have visited, including other countries in Europe, I didn’t find the French or those in Sounthern France particularly “nice” when compared to Latin countries in South America or some very hospitable Asian countries I visited.

Nice is more than nice. Yeah, it’s crammed with trippers tripping over other trippers; a lot of the non-Vieille Ville architecture isn’t floating anyone’s boat; heck, even the famed Promenade des Anglais can seem a drag of a main drag if you’re not in the mood. But in toto, and laying aside your preconceived notions, you’ll be charmed by a gorgeous Italianate Old Town; wooed by the winning weather; seduced by the seemingly preternaturally cerulean sea; hell, even the locals seem ok, for a tourist town. Just don’t mention the beach.

I think seeking about France for its meaning is doing more than enough considering nothing in the media portrayed there dynasty

Stone beaches are much better then sand ones.

hows the weather in october?

@Misterjingle 2 года назад

First half of October the temperature is between 20-25 degrees, and you can still swim in the sea. Second half can be a bit rainy, in Nice there is a rain season between half of October and early December. It's sunnier in January than in November.

When I was there some people weren't exactly happy with my less than perfect French. Do not like Air Canada Rouge from Nice Airport back to the USA via Toronto. That was just awful.

Oh that flight sucked. I did miami to Istanbul back to Barcelona. Best airlines ever turkish airlines but it was a solid 26 hours of travel. I learned my lesson. Look for deals early and for me I can go in Sept after the summer which makes flying and many countries much cheaper. I remember a room in xabia Spain that was 50 euro in Sept but 150 in July. I can now usually find flights from Miami/fort Lauderdale to Barcelona direct for about 500. When I looked from the mid west it was like 8-9 hundred until I looked at separate flights to NY then Barcelona. Then it was back to about 500. London, paris and Barcelona are usually about the same. Key is to get anywhere in europe for as cheap and direct flight as you can. Spend a day or 2 in that city even if its not your top ten. Then fly on to where you want to via one of the many discount airlines. Many flights with just a backpack are $50 and under. Sometimes I take my big bag but sometimes I leave it in Barcelona when I fly to places like Malta that I was at for 3 nights and needed 3 pairs of shorts, 1 long pants, 4 shirts and socks, bathroom stuff. Then again other cold places like the Austrian alps I needed my big bag for warmer clothes. Norwegian, American (not my 2 fav but not horrible) and Portugal airline tap air are a good place to start. Weird though some times tap air is less expensive to fly to Lisbon then lets say madrid then it is to stay at Lisbon.
