Rent a car with a driver/guide to take you wherever you like. Really good option if you don't have a car and want to visit places inland.

Start point to take the Train des Merveilles to the Roya valley and the Mercantour. Great hikes accessible from there. It's a touristic train so good sightseeing but be aware that there are a lot of tunnels and not all the stops are nice. Main railway station to go to Italy or everywhere else :-)

Start point of the Train des pignes to Dignes les Bains. If you already have the tickets, there is a stop 50m from the apartment. It takes you to some good hiking places and many old villages along the Var valley. Goes to the Allos ski resort in winter!

Large food market daily (except on Sundays). On Friday the market triple in size with all other products (clothes, bags shoes, ...). Worth visiting for the amazing Italian food offer and the really nice choice of goods. Beware that fake luxury product might be taken at the border and you could get a fine.
