Au revoir Côte d'Azur ... xx !


Note : To read the beginning of my French Riviera travel blog, it starts a few postings before this (sorry bout the sequence.) You can feedback to thesuperfairy@gmail.com or like my FB post.

Bus # 100 Octroi - Le Port
In the same way I had taken the bus to my hotel, it's the same bus back but in opposite direction. 6 Euros on Bus #100 from my hotel (Octroi stop at Villefranche) to Le Port.

Bus #98 Le Port - Côte d'Azur Airport.  
Find the bus stop with Bus # 98 indicated on its signage (with Aeroport icon), and wait until the next bus comes along (should be a bus every 15 minutes, but I waited 30mins that day probably due to traffic). Whilst the journey on Bus # 100 was not more than 30mins, when you board the Bus # 98 -- expect up travel time from Le Port to the Aeroport of up till 45 minutes if traffic is congested in downtown Nice.

Also, expect the bus to get REALLY crowded picking up more people along the way to the airport, hotel tourists with huge luggages. I was glad mine was tiny enough to fit between my legs ... and as usual, I got a nice seat since I started from the Le Port stop while the rest had to wrestle their luggages in a moving bus.
Here's the inside peek of the airport Terminal 2, of the Côte d'Azur Airport in Nice. EasyJet UK counters are abound with many travellers on holidays.

So it was a lovely summer break at the French Riviera and I bidded Au Revoir to the beautiful French coastal towns of Nice and Villefranche, and of course, the majestic Monaco.
