| By Train: | |
| General: | There is no train station at the airport, but SNCF train services run to nearby Nice - St Augustin, which is less than 1 or km from the airport, but curiously with no bus link. Either walk or take a taxi. Alternatively, use Bus #99 above to the main train station and then take a train from there. Notes from A Traveller July 2008: While the walk from this station to the airport is said to be 1 km, it is much more, especially to Terminal 2, certainly not for the faint hearted and we needed to ask the few locals we found for directions. I'd suggest stating on your site only to attempt to walk if the route is known. |
| Destinations & Times: | Trains run to Nice city centre (13 mins), Monte Carlo/Monaco (35 mins), Cannes (40 mins), Antibes (25 mins), Menton (50 mins) and more. In general, trains run every 20-30 mins 0515-0042. Cost: To Nice city centre €1.40. For train timetables see www.tersncf.com. |
