Traslado en coche privado de Chamonix a Nice

By the 10th century, Nice was held by the Counts of Provenance and passed onto the Counts of Savoy in 1388, who held the city in all its glory until 1860. During the 17th and 18th centuries, Nice experienced a period of turbulence, with the city passing hands nearly constantly as it was captured and occupied by the French until it officially became a part of the French nation.

When the 19th century rolled around, Nice opened itself up to the rest of the world, attracting visitors from near and far and many of the greatest artists, composers, and poets to ever live. The city was also swarmed by powerful—and not too powerful—aristocrats and European leaders seduced by its climate and beauty.

This beauty and grace never left Nice, so it's unsurprising that it's still a popular travel destination today and is one of France's largest cities. People from all walks of life are attracted to Nice's shores. With the city's remarkable magnificence, it has grown and is a place to explore with countless historical and cultural attractions and even more wineries, restaurants, and bars worth visiting.

Pack a corkscrew wine opener

If you're a wine aficionado or enthusiast who loves to try different varieties, you'll want to remember to pack a corkscrew wine opener. Unlike other parts of the world, Provenance and France wine bottles don't typically come with screwtops, and corks are more popular.

So if you have a picnic planned at one of the places between Chamonix and Nice, like at the beach in Sanremo or Monaco, and want to try out a delectable store-bought bottle of wine, have your corkscrew wine opener on hand.

Sightsee along the way with Daytrip

Since the drive from Chamonix to Nice is so exciting, especially when traveling with Daytrip, which has friendly drivers eager to share local travel tips and insights, it's easy to forget about sightseeing. We'd urge against this since Daytrip can accommodate several sightseeing stops between these two resort cities.

Our best recommendations include a stroll across Sanremo's beautiful beach, an adventure through the more than 25,000-year-old Toirano Caves, and a guided tour of the magnificent Fenis Castle. Regardless of what you choose to see, you're guaranteed to enjoy yourself.

From Chamonix to Nice by flight

If you want to travel between Chamonix and Nice by flight, you're in for a surprise. Sadly, the flight companies don't offer direct flights, so you'll need to take a bus first to get to a local airport since Chamonix doesn't have one. You can either book with Swiss Tours or BlaBlaCar Bus

Depending on the airline you choose and the flight route, you'll either have to take a bus with one of the two companies offering trips. For example, you would catch a bus from Chamonix to

Geneva and then fly to Nice or take a bus from Chamonix to Lyon – Saint-Exupery Airport, transfer to Lyon Airport, and then a flight to Nice. Both options can be costly, with the entire trip costing up to $321 (€295).

The only upside is that the bus trip and flight should only take about four and a half hours, but is it worth the hassle of dual transportation?

From Chamonix to Nice by train

One of the more scenic and comfortable ways to travel from Chamonix to Nice is by train. Several train lines offer trips between these two cities, including TGV inOui, Swiss Railways, and SNFC. These train companies often offer direct trips, but this isn't always the case, so be careful when booking a ticket so as not to choose a route with multiple stops.

Generally, train tickets cost $125 to $212 (€115-€195), so it is a fairly pricey way to travel, both financially and time-wise, considering the trip can take up to ten hours to complete.

From Chamonix to Nice by Daytrip private car service

With Daytrip, you can truly enjoy your travel experience, taking in the spectacular sights along the way while stopping and sightseeing at a few places on your travel bucket list.

Not to mention, Daytrip provides a door-to-door service, so you won't have to handle your luggage, nor will you need to rush to get to train stations, bus stops, and airports.

Essentially, you have all the control when it comes to your transportation. You choose the time you want to travel, where to be fetched, where to be dropped off, and how many people get to enjoy the trip with you. Not bad for only $200 (€184) per seat per trip!

Promenade des Anglais

The Promenade des Anglais is not merely another beach strip; it's a place to soak in the sights and the sunlight. Built in the 1800s by wealthy English expats who wanted a paved promenade to take in the sparkling oceanfront, it has become a travelers' hotspot.

So slip on some comfy shoes and slap on some sunscreen. You'll need a few hours to stare out at the bright blue Mediterranean Sea and explore the shops and restaurants by the beachside.

Cave de la Tour

If you're anything like us, you love to sip on a glass of wine—or two; we're not judging—after exploring a new city. But where can you do this in Nice? Well, Cave de la Tour, of course.

Despite its name, Cave de la Tour is very much a wine bar and not a cave, but it's still worth exploring. Founded in 1947, it is one of the oldest wine bars in the city and has some of the region's finest booze from across France ready and waiting for you to sample.

Most of the wine varieties are available by the glass, but if you find a favorite, stay for a bottle and enjoy some of the bar's delicious local cuisine, too!

Musée d'Art Moderne et d'Art Contemporain

Every city has its famous museum that's an instant must-visit, and Nices is the Musée d'Art Moderne et d'Art Contemporain.

This modern art museum is home to vast collections of realist and pop art from the 1950s to today, so you'll need a few hours to soak up the vibrancy and history strewn across its walls.

While wandering the museum, be sure to look for the works of pop art legends Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol and realist artist Yves Klein, who once called Nice home.
