I studied abroad in Nice this summer. For nearby trips, Cannes and Monaco are easy to get to an worth the trip. For destinations further away in Italy, I recommend Venice, Pisa, Rome, Milan and Florence. Venice, Pisa and Rome are especially not to be missed. Also, don’t underestimate staying put in Nice…it’s gorgeous!

Everywhere between Cannes/Grasse and the Italian border.

If you have a lot of time and you’re a good walker, I recommand you walk the waterfront road from Nice to the Italian border… You’ll cross very nice places like Villefranche-sur-Mer (don’t miss that place!), Monaco and others… It takes more than one day, but you can get back by train to your hotel at the end of the day, and continue the following day by returning by train the following morning to where you stopped the previous day.

I also recommend Breil-sur-Roya, Saorge and Tende, inland in the “Alps” at a few hours train ride from Nice.

Visit Monte Carlo when you’re in Nice.

When you’re in Italy, visit the Vatican, Rome, Florence and Venice.

Apart from a few big cities mentioned by the above poster, don’t miss a little town called Grasse which is almost next door to Nice. It’s a place famous for the perfum production and industry. Besides , don’t miss to take a boat trip along Les Calanques.
