Stadtinformationen

Wichtige Informationen über die Stadt

Passport / Visa

France can be visited visa-free for up to 90 days by citizens of Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Israel, UAE and most countries in America. If you are unsure whether or not you need to apply for a visa, we recommend contacting the embassy or consulate in your country. International (non-Schengen) travelers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip in order to enter the Schengen zone. Citizens of Schengen countries can travel without a passport, but must have a valid ID with them during their stay.

Best Time to Visit

With a mild Mediterranean climate and over 300 sunny days a year, any time is a good time to come to Nice. The best time, however, is in the spring and autumn, when the weather in Nice is warm and sunny but not overly hot. Winters on the Cote d’Azur are sunny and crisp, with no crowds, and a real village feel. The only month to avoid, ironically, is late July and all of August, when temperatures are at their hottest and all of Europe goes on a month’s vacation, jamming the roads, beaches, hotels and restaurants.

Nice Côte d'Azur Airport (NCE)

Nice Côte d'Azur Airport is 7 km outside Nice. The airport shuttle bus departs every 20 minutes. A ticket gives you unlimited travel for the rest of the day in Nice. Two tram lines connect the airport to nearby towns, the port and train stations. Taxi prices vary, but there is an updated list on the airport website.

Public Transport

Buses and trams are an efficient way to travel in Nice and along the Riviera. You can use the same ticket on both bus and tram. Timetables and a map are available from the tourist information office. Trains are the most comfortable and fastest way to travel along the Riviera. The station in Nice is on Avenue Thier. From here, it takes 20 minutes to Cannes, 20 minutes to Monaco, and 1 hour to Saint Raphaël. Bicycles can be rented from a company called Nice Allocation Rent. Rollerblades can be rented from the Roller Station.

Taxi

Taxis are available when the taxi lamp on the roof is fully illuminated. There are taxi stations at places like the Hotel Méridien on the promenade des Anglais. Four people are not always accepted — or are charged extra, and the same applies to luggage. Uber is available, too.

Post

Most post offices are open from Monday to Friday between 8 am and 7 pm and Saturdays from 8 am to noon.

Pharmacy

Pharmacies are called Pharmacie and are identified by an illuminated green cross. If closed, there is generally a notice on the door with the address of the nearest open pharmacy, day and night.
