Getting There
Valbonne lies halfway between Antibes and Grasse. A train from Nice to Antibes is 4€. From Antibes, a bus service connects you to Valbonne-Sophia Antipolis bus station for just 1€. For more information on trains, call tel. 36-35, or visit www.ter-sncf.com. For bus information, contact Envibus (tel. 04-89-87-72-00; www.envibus.fr). Given the complexities of a bus transfer from Antibes, it's a lot easier just to pay 30€ for a taxi to haul you and your luggage north from Antibes.
However, the best way to get to Valbonne is to drive. From Nice, follow the A8 to motorway exits at either Antibes or Cannes, then take signs to Sophia Antipolis and then to village of Valbonne.
