Places to visit near Nice?

Travel Info
Im going back to Nice in France and looking for good ideas for day trips. I was there last year and visited Monte Carlo. Im only there for 5 days so short trips only. Is Antibes worth a visit?

Travel Tips

I'd spend one day going to Villefranche and from there to the gardens of Mme Euphrussie. After that I'd either walk or drive up to the village of Eze to feel the athmosphere and take a look at the view from the gardens on top.

I'd spend one day driving to the mountains - the area of St. Martin de Vesubie. It is the alps area straight north of Nice heading for Isola. If I wanted I'd also visit small cities in the mountain heading for Valberg on my way home from St. Martin de Vesubie. I'd skip the tourist-trap of Grasse.

I'd spend one day visiting some art museums in Nice. There are so many to chose from. In the old city of Nice there is this fish-restaurant with a very blue facade (now, I cant remember it's name, but it's not possible to miss) They serve the most fantastic and extravaganza seafood you can imagine. Go there for lunch. And take a stroll down the promenade for food to sink...

I'd definitely have to spend one day going to Aix. My favourite city - ever.

I'd give you one day to figure out something for yourself...

Have a nice trip to Nice :-)
