Bus 100 (Nice - Monaco - Menton) is a very good option and costs a mere 1 €. It runs every 15 minutes mostly, and the trip takes 30-45 minutes. It takes an absolutely scenic route along the coast, passing through seaside towns such as Villefranche and Beaulieu. (There's also express bus 100X which takes the motorway and costs 4 €; obviously not as good for ...

The closest places are in France, but there is architectural and historical continuity with the Italian Liguria (Nice became French in 1860 only!), so Italian places are worth a look too if you like this kind of places.

Here's what I ended up doing: I took the train to the Cagnes-sur-mer railway station. I walked about 10 minutes from the train station to the shuttle stop (because we couldn't for the life of us find a cab). Walking directions We took shuttle 44 up to the chateau.

Unfortunately, my flight was very late, so I didn't actually arrive at Nice airport until just before 1am. The first thing to note is that the N100 nightbus is very prompt about leaving, and at 30 seconds past 1am you'll see its rear lights disappearing off into the distance... The bus stop for the N4 nightbus is not well signposted from the airport, and ...

In general, you can always take a taxi. Taxis are around at the airport as long as airplanes are operating. There is a page in english made by the airport regarding the taxi transfer and the night fares. You can also call a taxi company like this here to pick you up in case there is none at the airport by chance. If you want to go 100% sure that you will get ...
