    I don't get the avoidance of touristy. There's a reason why these places are full of people. And yes, if it's absolutely horrendously crowded I get it, but I've been in Venice & Florence in the middle of the season and it's not bad at all as long as you book your hotel at a little distance from the centre. Aren't most of us tourists unless we actually live there or travel for work?

    Some day people will interact with EACH OTHER more. Right now people pretty much just talk to their spouse, friends, the waitress etc. Other than carefully glancing out of the corners of their eyes, they're mostly walking right by each other... afraid to have any fun or strike up a conversation for the most part. The funnest part of this was the parade.
    Yesterday I was in Asheville. As usual, the same tourists... eating, drinking, buying things, holding hands with their significant other but... checking out other attractive people and wondering what it would be like to have fun/sex with them as well. Oh well, they bought into the norm and it will never happen! They believed everything everyone told them even though they're bored out of their gourds. Back to the couch and the 9-5 on Monday morning.

    You are in one of the most beautiful part of Earth, stay for few weeks, look up history of Cote d'Azur, feel the place! Nice and Cannes is not like an airports, where all you need to do is rush through, dying to leave, but you treat them lie airports. The point of travelling is to relax, take the time to feel the place. I drive to this are every summer, 2-3 weeks each road trip, it is not enough to just bookmark this area as 'I have been there', this is not a tourist trap, this is real. The only place in Europe that compete with the beauty of Cote d'azur is Amalfi coast in Italy, Amalfi is too busy with people, especially August, so right now you are in as good a place as it gets in Europe! Stay for a while, rent a car, drive up and down coastal road SS1, stop where you like, dont rush off after just 1 day, because right now you haven't really seen the place at all

I think you just take the shuttle from airport, walk couple of streets, grab a tourist dinner at some sad tourist restaurant, and then you are off to airport. You never really meant to explore Nice, Cannes, Monaco. Because you are not interested in those places, these places are Skyscanner options, not real travel destinations. It's just that you are missing so much! You miss pretty much everything.

    Those touristy restaurants are really expensive for the apetite. In Venice and outskirts of Venice , in Lido Di Jesolo, those prochutto pizza for 1 person is priced between 35 euros which is incredibly expensive, in Provence I think those pizza prices are similar and one customer can only get 2 wine glasses and pay 50 euros for one pizza and 2 drinks. I ate same size prochutto pizza like in Nice, Cannes pizza restaurants, in Italian neighborhood and paid only 17 USD for one large full of meat pizza.
