just wondering if I can get the bus from nice airport than getting the train im travelling to nice centre?
Yes.
Timetables for all buses from the airport here:
http://www.nice.aeroport.fr/acces_stationnement_en/bus/horaires.asp
Buses 98, 99 and 23 go to central Nice.
There is no train station exactly at Nice airport, though there is one nearby called Saint-Augustin. It's about 1 km from Terminal 1 and 2 km from Terminal 2.
But it's much easier to take one of the buses to central Nice.
- Line 98 goes to the bus terminal near Place Masséna and the Old Town (30 minutes)
- Line 99 goes to the central train station in Nice (30 minutes)
- Line 23 also goes to the central station, and then onwards towards northern Nice, but is a bit slower (40 minutes)
For line 98 and 99 you need a daily pass for EUR 4.00, for line 23 a single ticket will suffice, costing EUR 1.00.
Line 98 and 99 calls at both terminals, while line 23 only stops at Terminal 1.
You can find a maps, timetables and fares for the local bus and tram lines here:

Nice's beaches are actually covered with small stones. (If you are looking for sandy beaches, I would recommend nearby Antibes.)
However, you would be remissed if you did not take at least a stroll along their gorgeous shoreline.
The lovely PROMENADE DES ANGLAIS and its pebbly beach deserves an entire chapter! In summer, you'd see lots of men flocking to this place to oogle (!) at some of the Riviera's sexiest gals sunbathing topless here. :-) Aha, MEN, your secret is out!
Try to speak French if you can. In Paris, they might make fun of your Louisiana Cajun accent, but not so much in Nice. It will get you better and more prompt service in restaurants, for example. The French hold politeness at a high premium. So, use please (s'il vous plait) and thank you (merci) a lot.
hop on any bus in town and try to get lost in the city. this is a fun way to find great architecture, sculptures, scenery, as well as meet locals. tho the tourist attractions can be great it's sometimes more rewarding to discover something on your own. once you're away from touristic areas, you also watch prices dropping significantly.
Vence is a fortified busy market town with a medieval old town centre, some 45 minutes away from Nice via the 400/410 TAM bus from Gare Routiere.
Its perfect for those who like to wander through narrow winding streets of a different age, and a morning market suggests making an early start.
But Vence's most outstanding feature is Matisse's wonderous Chapel Rosaire, about a kilometre walk north west of the town. Here Matisse designed everything, from the priests vestments, to the awe-inspiring patterned stained glass windows. A uniquely moving experience, and its location allows you to take in fine views of Vence set in the valley.
