From Saint-Tropez to Nice: Travel Tips

Travel experts constantly rank the drive from Saint-Tropez to Nice as one of the most scenic worldwide. So prepare for this once-in-a-lifetime tour with our travel tips!

Pack for Comfort

The last thing you want on this special trip is to feel uncomfortable. If you're taking a day trip, pack light so you don't have to heave around a heavy bag in the heat. Also, check the weather before you leave so you can wear appropriate clothing and pack sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses if the sun is shining.

### Prioritize Timing It's well known that the drive from Saint-Tropez to Nice is beautiful. It's also traffic-prone. You can easily get stuck in traffic for over an hour if you travel during the peak times between 7:30 and 9:30 AM and again between 4:30 and 7:30 PM. Travel outside these hours (but while there's still daylight) to enjoy the vistas. ### Go Sightseeing en Route During such a captivating journey, you can easily forget that there are several fascinating landmarks en route from Saint-Tropez to Nice. Book a door-to-door ride with Daytrip, and you can step into this beautiful natural landscape and soak up the tranquil atmosphere. If you're a wine enthusiast, a visit to Chateau Sainte-Roseline will feel like heaven on earth.

How to Get From Saint-Tropez to Nice

Though only 70 miles of panoramic roads separate the two cities, getting from Saint-Tropez to Nice isn't as straightforward as it might appear on the map. Luckily, we've broken down how to get from Saint Tropez to Nice, so you can choose one that suits your preferences.

Helicopter From Saint-Tropez to Nice

If you're going to splash your cash on an adventure through Europe, the journey from Saint Tropez to Nice Airport is the place to do so!

Although this is the quickest mode of transportation, it's also, unsurprisingly, the most expensive. Prices for the luxurious 25-minute experience to Nice Airport start at €2100 one way and can rise to €2500.

There are some drawbacks to this deluxe option - it's not door-to-door, so getting to and from the airport will add to your travel time and cost. And there’s a strict 10 kg (22 lbs) luggage allowance per person.

### Daytrip From Saint-Tropez to Nice If you want to remain in the vacation spirit and enjoy the most comfortable and convenient way to get from Saint-Tropez to Nice, look no further than Daytrip's private door-to-door car service. From €46, your English-speaking driver will whisk you away from your front door and handle any suitcases you're carrying. You can then set the thermostat to a refreshing temperature and recline your seat to watch the stunning views unfold from your window. If you want to immerse yourself in a sophisticated setting, stop at the Mougins Museum of Classical Art, or sample the wines at Chateau Sainte-Roseline for a refined afternoon, before heading into the hustle and bustle of Nice. ### Ferry From Saint-Tropez to Nice The ferry from Saint-Tropez to Nice will make you feel like a multimillionaire heading to your secret vacation home. Along the 2.5-hour trip, you can admire jaw-dropping cliffs and colorful villages lining the shores while the balmy Mediterranean air flows through your fingertips. Boats depart Guepratte Quay and arrive in Nice Port at 11:30 a.m. An adult day return costs €78, and kids under four travel free of charge. ### Train From Saint-Tropez to Nice The train is a fun and cheap way to travel from Saint-Tropez to Nice. You can still take outstanding photos from your window, but it does require some added hassle. Since no direct trains are available from Saint-Tropez to Nice, you first must take a bus or taxi to the pretty town of Saint-Raphael. Once you arrive, take a short walk to the train station and board the direct service to Nice-Ville. If you book your train tickets early, you can expect to pay €6.50 to €10. The entire tour will take around four hours, including the bus transfer.

Things to Do When You Get to Nice

Although synonymous with a beach and winter sun destination, the city has an abundance of things to see and do. We've uncovered the best things to do in town when you get to Nice!

Get Lost in Nice Vieux Ville

Nice Vieux Ville is the city's old town, and after visiting, you'll be forgiven if you think you have just stepped foot into Italy. The colorful lanes and baroque-style buildings are tres Mediterranean.

Get lost in the labyrinth of walkways, and if you get tired, refuel at one of the countless restaurants here. Look out for the "Plat du Jour" on the outdoor menus. The dish of the day is significantly cheaper than other items, and since it's cooked on the day, it's guaranteed to be fresh!

### Relax at Promenade des Anglais If you need help getting in the vacation spirit, make Promenade des Anglais your first stop. The 4.3-mile-long, palm-lined street promenade runs parallel to the sandy and rocky shores, where locals and tourists come to cool off and savor a picnic on the beach. There are also plenty of restaurants where you can sit and watch the gorgeous sunset. ### Climb Castle Hill Castle Hill is unquestionably the best lookout point in Nice. Standing at over 300 feet, it offers panoramic views of Nice, the surrounding mountains, and the flowing sea. You can hike or take the elevator up to explore the ancient ruins of Château de Nice and the majestic, man-made waterfall overlooking the cityscape. Once you climb to the top, you can relax with an ice-cold drink at one of the cafes.

When Is the Best Time to Visit Nice?

Nice is a sought-after city and is the second-most visited in France, behind Paris. Therefore, the area promises an unforgettable experience at any time of the year. However, spring is arguably the best time to travel from Saint-Tropez to Nice.
