The airport is situated just 4 km from the city centre, right on the coast. There are spectacular views of the Riviera as you land!. The airport is the second busiest airport in France after Paris. It has a comprehensive range of flights from all over Europe as well as direct flights from the USA and other long haul destinations.

From Airport to Rental Apartment
Some people take the walk along the Promenade from the airport to Nice centre. While its a beautiful walk along the palm tree lined coast, and takes 30-40 minutes, we don't recommend it to guests loaded down with luggage!
An easier option is to take the bus. There is an Express Shuttle bus (€4), 99, that takes 20-25 minutes to the main train station (Gare Nice Central). The drop off point is just 350m from our rental apartment, on Ave Auber. Click on timetables for more information.
Taxis are available but expensive, up to €30 from the airport.
We will give you exact details of how to find the apartment building on confirmation of booking.
