You discovered my city - Bravo! And you did it proud, a lovely video tour. One quick hint (and maybe you usually do)...even with little French, when you enter a shop of any kind in France, add Madame, Mesdame, Monsieur or Messieurs to your "Bonjour."
I have an apartment in Villefranche,, I just found your video's, they are great. I think slow travel. I'm retired now and I think spending a few weeks or a month in a place is perfect. Speaking of slow travel, have you done a long walk, like the Spanish Camino,, truly a life changing experience.
Wow, that's lucky to live in Villefranche! We've never done the Camino or anything like it -- we're in awe of those who can do it! Congrats! Did you do the whole thing or what part did you do?
@@happygoluckytravel so far I did 6 days from San Sebastián to Bilbao. I’m hooked, I’m obsessively planning my next one. I plan to do finish one route, about 4 to 5 weeks of walking.
Hi, my wife met you in Nice on Thursday, we love your channel, especially your neighbourhood tours and appartment visits. Keep ii up, best wishes from Carre d'or. Brenda and David.
My wife and I spent 2 lovely weeks in Nice in a 1 bed Air B&B just off the Prominade des Anglais. Our French is poor, but we got along ok. If I could live my life over, it would be the place to live. C'est une ville fantastique!
Bonjour! Excellent video. We are considering France as a destination now that we are retired. We lived in Lviv, Krakow, and Tallinn and loved the plaza lifestyle. We need great healthcare, a moderate summer climate, and accessibility. Nice looks perfect!! Dean & Cindy
Interesting perspective. I spent 3 weeks in Nice solo in December of 2021, and really loved it there. Hard to beat as a home base, and so many opportunities for easy and expensive day trips. I rented an apartment on the Rue de France and loved the easy access to everything, including the Promenade des Anglais and the sea just 2 minutes away. Working to improve your French language competency would likely make you feel more comfortable when visiting France, especially if you intend to visit regularly in the future. I also think it helps to visit in the offseason, when businesses and the city aren't inundated with (often entitled and obtuse) tourists. I was just in Marseille for 3 weeks with family and then solo, and you might enjoy that city as well. Some amazing day hiking opportunities in the Calanques, of varying difficulty.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. Yes - we've been back to Nice a few more times since we posted this video and we're liking it more and more. The surrounding areas too, especially Beaulieu-sur-Mer . Thanks for the tip on Marseille. We haven't spent much time in Marseille but we did visit the Calanques, Cassis, Sanary and La Ciotat. The Calanques are truly magical. One of the best hikes in Europe in our opinion.
As we prepare for our upcoming visit to Nice, we've watched your video several times (and took notes). We really appreciate your approach to the cities you visit and Emre's calming voice and demeanor.
❤️ May I ask, Which is your Favorite Restaurant near the old port? FOOD has been so wonderful here in Nice --- that we're even loving our hotel breakfasts. 😊
Thank you for watching, so happy you're enjoying nice. If you'd like a meal by the sea th-cam.com/video/XDp0QQXdlV8/w-d-xo.html You can get to Lou Bantry in Villefranche by car, easy hike or the bus from Port Lympia.
And here we cover the great second meal at Lou Bantry. Check that they're open before going, some restaurants close in the winter around this time. th-cam.com/video/XDp0QQXdlV8/w-d-xo.html
This is a beautiful area. How lucky you are to enjoy it. You have a very pleasant voice & seem very knowledgeable. Best of luck on all your adventures. 👍
Have a great trip! Last year we had nice weather in November, except for one three-day storm. Hard to predict these days. Wishing you blue skies and turquoise water!!!
Beautiful video and very helpful., my wife and i we are going to Nice in April for a week and 3 days to Villefranche sur Mer., slowly slowly looking for a town to retire on the french riviera....we like the area near St. Tropez like Cavalaire sur Mer or Le Lavandou....now we will try Nice....i know can be crowdy but at the same time full of life all year around especially in winter...anyway, thanks for sharing.Best regards .Marcelo
Hi Marcelo, Hard question! And subjective. They're not too far away from each other and both lovely in their own way. Our usual strategy is to stay on the very eastern edge of Nice and drive or walk to Villefranche and Cap Ferrat on sunny days when the cruise ships are not moored in the Villefranche bay. No matter what you decide, we wish you a fantastic trip!
@@happygoluckytravel Thanks for all., i watched your others videos too., we will be also in Liguria by September: Monterrosso al Mare -Santa Margherita and 1 week in Varigotti ( Finale Liguria).By the way, i decided 6 days in Nice ( Port Lympia ) and 4 days Villefranche sur Mer.All the best.Marcelo
Good video about the neighbourhood ! I was looking for a new construction over there in Port Limpia, but it was sold very quickly . Now we bought an apartment in Fabron . Happy going there in October! Merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo.
Nice video, i found an apartment in the street Avenue Lympia for this summer holiday. I see you were a little bit more up and east, really nice sunset view. Nice tips and info.
Thank you for watching! It's been a while since we stayed there and prices will be different by when you want to stay -- it was an Airbnb. Try setting the filters for Airbnb Plus, choose flexible dates, and zoom into the area east of Port Lympia, the apartment should pop up.
Hello there. I love all videos and thank you for sharing all your experiences in Nice. I’m moving to live in Nice and I would like to have the details for the apartment you stayed at in this video. Thank you in advance Kristy

Loved your video. We were lucky enough to spend a month there in 2004. One of our favorite things was the cannon. 😄. Do you mind sharing how you found such a lovely apartment in Mt Boron? We want to go spring 2023 to house hunt and loved the apt that you stayed in. Really enjoy your videos!!

Having visited Nice a few times over the years, I must admit to feeling indifferent about it. Always found it pleasant but that's as far as it went. Perhaps I need to go back and try to see it with fresh eyes. Love your style. Hope you continue doing what you're doing.

There’s a legend about the noon cannon shot : some english gentleman conceived this as a way to remind lunch time to his wife, who would always be late, being way too talkative ; the real story is that the man, whose name was Thomas Coventry, used to make experiences about time and sound travel speed with the help of the city authorities ; people got used to it, and it’s been this way since 1861. I’ve been working next to the Colline du Château for years, and I’m still getting scared sometimes, when I’m a bit dreamy. You both enjoying the city made me happy. Have a nice time travelling.
Thank you for watching and for sharing the stories about the noon cannon tradition! The birds all the way in Mt. Baron rise off the roofs when it happens!
Lovely video! Have you been to the Institut de Français in Villefranche? I am looking forward to attending this year - a month-long, French language immersion course! Je me souhaite bonne chance! 😂
Oh, that sounds like a great experience and a lovely way to slow travel. Thank you so much for watching our Nice video. Beaulieu will be very nearby you, a lovely village one train stop from Villefranche. You will also have time to do coastal walks, many people out and about so you can practice your French along the way😀
Thank you for sharing the video. My husband and I bought a place in Vieux Nice a couple of years ago. However, due to work and whatnot, we've not had a chance to use it much. Still I enjoy watching videos of Nice to remind me how glad I am that we purchased our apartment and the lovely life in Nice. Now we just need to find the time to enjoy it. Out of curiosity, did you and your wife eventually moved there?
Oh, how lovely! I hope you get to spend more time at your place in Nice in 2023! We're still full-time travelers through Europe, even though Nice is in our heart and we visit every now and then. We have a couple more Nice videos in our playlist if you haven't seen them already!
Having just returned from a couple weeks in Nice, also in Port Lympia at the Hotel St Paul, I agree with everything you sited, especially around the majesty of the surroundings, the need for us to make an effort and the general willingness of the locals to meet everyone more than halfway. I whimsically dream of living there at some point. It was also pointed out that Covid restrictions, clearly took an economic toll on the local economy and the warmth and friendliness may be a function of "catching up" a bit. No denying under any circumstances that the Cote d azure is amazing and Nice blends it all together. Nice Video, thanks!
Having recently discovered your channel.. I live my life vicariously thru your adventures.. I like the gentle and informative nature of your videos and they way you let the landscape sell itself. Well done. I hit the subscribe button.
WE booked a trip to Nice and I've been searching AirB&B for that apartment without success. Would it be possible for you to let me know a little more about it?
Hi, Enjoy your trip to Nice! If you narrow your search to Airbnb plus, choose flexible dates, and zoom into the area east of Port Lympia, it should pop up. The reviews can help you decide if its a good fit.
@@happygoluckytravel Found it, but unfortunately it's booked for the time we will be there. So, the search goes on (but I actually enjoy planning a trip almost as much as the actual travel so it's all good!).

Hi there. My family and I are taking a once in a lifetime trip to Europe from Montana US and I’m having a difficult time deciding where to stay in Nice. I loved your video. I think I have narrowed it down to two different places one is located at the very top of Port Lympia and the other specifically 2 Rue de Foresta. Do you have an opinion on one versus the other? Thanks so much..
2 Rue de Foresta would be too busy / noise for us. But we're pretty sensitive to noise to it may not bother you. That road / intersection sees quite a bit of traffic during the day and there is an elementary school across the street. Otherwise it's a good location - close to the tram, the port and old nice. When you say "very top of Port Lympia", I am not sure I understand where that is.

Go for it! Of course you have your own criteria, so we love it for the coastal walks, turquoise water, good international airport, nice people, and delicious food. Some parts are touristy. A few review trips to find your favorite neighborhood would be in order!

That road / intersection sees quite a bit of traffic during the day and there is an elementary school across the street. Otherwise it's a good location - close to the tram, the port and old nice.
When you say "very top of Port Lympia", I am not sure I understand where that is.
Thanks
hello, Would you mind sharing how I might lease the apartment you stayed at in this video? Thank you.
At the time it was an Airbnb. Try setting the filters for Airbnb Plus, choose flexible dates, and zoom into the area east of Port Lympia, it should pop up. The reviews can help you decide if it's a good fit as it was set just above the main road. Have a wonderful trip! Thank you for watching!

Hello Emre and Maia, I really enjoyed your video about Nice, your excellent commentary and great taste in music. Is it possible to get the contact information for your apartment landlord? My wife and I would like to spend more time in Nice with intentions to buy an apartment if we fall in love with the local and expat vibe. Thank you in advance for your reply.

@@happygoluckytravel Thank you for the information about Airbnb plus. I'm having a wonderful time watching your beautiful videos. I'm also forwarding them to family members that enjoy travel. Do you live in Washington state or DC? My wife and I live in Maryland. Cheers
Thank you for the boost! We're WA state -- DC is one of our favorite US cities!

Oh, they must live near Mount Rainier! Nice that you get to visit there, too. All the best

Really appreciate
How much the apartment rental there per month or day
Thank you for watching and subscribing! We use bienici (dot) com to research long term rentals. For daily and monthly rentals we used Airbnb. The prices vary widely based on the time of year you plan to visit or move and how popular the property has become. I hope you get to go to Nice!
@@happygoluckytravel been in nice 3 times and travel around the nearby places , am planning for long holiday there next time maybe Airbnb is must cheaper than hotel for a longer stay .
Thanks anyway
Awesome video ,really enjoyed it , I’m from England And I’m thinking to move to nice is it a good place to live there !what do you suggest please
Go for it! Of course you have your own criteria, so we love it for the coastal walks, turquoise water, good international airport, nice people, and delicious food. Some parts are touristy. A few review trips to find your favorite neighborhood would be in order!
Retiring there 2023
So happy for you, sounds great!
