Nice/Villefranche/Monaco
#5
I would take a taxi to Nice Ville train station, buy a train ticket from one of the machines, and head to Beaulieu sur Mer/Cap St Jean Ferrat to see Villa Kerylos and Villa Ephrussi-Beatrice Rothschild.
You can have a nice lunch at Villa Ephrussi in a beautiful garden setting.
You can also walk along the glorious promenade and look at the sea in Beaulieu sur Mer.
Lots of shopping in Nice along Avenue Jean Medicin. Great views of the sea from Colline du Château.
I, personally, think Monaco-Monte Carlo is boring.

We too will have a day docked in Villefranche Sur Mer in a few weeks and will take the train to Antibes for a visit. We've been before and enjoy the morning market in Antibes, some nice shopping, people watching and walking the back streets. Will find a nice spot for a good meal and drinks and enjoy. No interest in Monaco and will be in Nice in October so this will be a good alternative.

I'm with Thin.
Villa Ephrussi Rothschild was my favorite part of our visit to the Cote d'Azur.
The gardens and house are truly memorable.
If you can walk around St Jean Cap Ferrat shore and paths, it's pretty gorgeous.

We didn't have to do anything to use our Uber apps. It works exactly the same in Europe as at home. They will not pick up in Monaco, however. They will drop off put cannot pick up as it is a different country.
