What are YOURS favorite places to visit? Any suggestion are welcome. We're willing to drive 2 or 3 hours from Nice.
Thank you

You'll get more responses if you re-post this question on the European forum - use the "Change Forum" link at the top of this thread. If you wish you can also "tag" your new post "France".

We stayed in Nice for three nights. Took the city bus to the Jardin Rothschild, and walked from there down the hill to St Jean Cap Ferrat. Caught the city bus to return to Nice. It was a nice, leisurely afternoon.

Another day, we took the train to Antibes, which we liked a lot.

When we went, we planned on doing a few day trips. However, there was one of those famous French strikes going on and we didn't have a car so we spent our whole trip in Nice. That being said, you could easily do a week in Nice if you're up for it.

Travelmom83: The OP started a new thread a week ago on the Europe forum - so maybe post to that one.

The site won't let me post the ink due to a weird glitch but if you click on her screen name you will easily find it

Have you requested stududley's notes on the Cote d'Azur? He'll e-mail them to you. They are detailed and very helpful. Search for his name, to find him.

Oops. Thanks, janisj.
