I will be traveling from Ventimiglia Italy to Nice France. The train connection does not work for my schedule. How can I find bus schedules from Ventimiglia to Nice?

I don't think you can get all the way from Ventimiglia to Nice by bus. According to the timetables on the Lignes d'Azur site, it looks likes bus #100, which runs along the coast, only goes as far as Menton. The bus runs roughly about every 15 minutes. I suppose you could take a taxi from Ventimiglia to Menton and a bus from there to Nice. However, I'm surprised you say that the train won't work for you. Throughout most of the day there are at least two trains/hour between Ventimiglia and Nice.

I agree with Tim. From 05:00 in the morning, I see 36 trains departing Ventimiglia for Nice Ville with 2 per hour departing during some hours. How could that not work for your schedule.

The connection between Ventimiglia and Nice is run by French Rail (SNCF). In the station you can just buy a ticket at the French Rail ticket booth. If you have a pass for Italy/France, no additional ticket is required. It takes only about an hour to get to Nice. Many trains from Italy require a change at Ventimiglia for transportation into France.

I found the link to SNCF and see it does have trains very frequently from Ventimiglia to Nice. Thanks for your help!

Another case of RailEurope not putting in the whole schedule?
