This book proved an invaluable tool whilst my mom and I were in the Cote d'Azur. It gave excellent information regarding buses (including numbers and cost) and allowed us to travel easily between towns along the Cote d'Azur. Also included were locations of Travel Information offices where we were able to obtain additional bus schedules and maps. This is the only book you'll need for the Cote d'Azur. Maps, tips, walking tours, all excellent!

This is the second Rick Steves book I have taken to Europe. This trip took me to Nice and the French Riviera, and with this travel book it made the trip stress free. Two tips from the guide book were taking the public bus trip from Nice to Menton and traveling inland to the French Grand Canyon. We took the bus trip on Sunday, which only cost us one euro per person for an hour and 15 minute trip, in a clean, comfortable bus and my boyfriend was able to enjoy the views since he didn't have to drive. The second item from the guide book was a trip inland to the French Grand Canyon. What a beautiful ride and the views were spectacular. Worth the trip - but only would have know about it with the guide book.

I felt that Rick's Provence and the French Riviera guide has some of the essentials but not the inspired coverage of his other books. There isn't the excitement that he presents in his Italian and other European guides. The coverage of the hill towns of Provence is somewhat perfunctory.
