milk's French Riviera trip

Airbnb in Nice Old Town. Vieux Nice is the base for the whole trip and it's the right call — everything else is a day trip from here.

Explore the old town and the waterfront beach, then the seafood market — get oysters. Carry on toward Cannes after.

Walk La Croisette past the Palais des Festivals, dinner and drinks, then back to Nice.

Rent e-bikes in Nice and ride east along the Mediterranean. Stop at Villefranche-sur-Mer for the coloured harbour and the old town waterfront.

Keep going to Monaco, stopping at the small coastal towns and viewpoints on the way. Explore Monte Carlo once you're there.

Biking back toward Nice around sunset was the best part of the trip. Dinner at Lavomatique in Nice.

Breakfast or brunch, then wander the old town — cafés, the streets, the church. The cafés are cute and performative, so dress cute.

The waterfront and the viewpoints over the Baie des Anges. Weather was still warm in November — you can definitely swim.

Last food and drinks by the water before heading out.
