Travel between cities in Provence?


Travel Info
I will be going to Nice in March, and I would like to venture out to some other cities in Provence. Most of them look to be in reasonable driving distance from Nice. I am hesitant to rent a car, so are busses and trains widely available and reliable? I am thinking of doing day trips to cities like Marseilles, Nimes, Aix-en-Provence. Are they expensive?

Travel Tips
Well it depends on the city you're going to.

For Cannes, Antibes, Menton, Monaco => Use the train
For Marseilles the train takes 2h30 and it's only a 2hr drive by car (but 30鈧?for the highway roundtrip).
For Aix it's really convenient to get there using the A8 highway (30鈧?round trip as well) because using the train you'd have to change at Marseilles station and it takes too much time.
For N卯mes you will need more than 3 hours and I'd recommend the car again.
Don't miss Avignon (closer than N卯mes).

Forget about the bus for all destinations...

Have fun there ! Source(s): I live in Nice
