Bootleg Beyoncé on a Backpacker Budget
Indulge in a South of France yacht vacation vibe, Beyoncé style, without breaking the bank. Explore Nice, Monaco, and hidden gem beaches while feeling bougie on a budget.
Your Day-by-Day Experience
Day 1: Nice is Nice on a Budget, Baby
Morning
Arrive in Nice, grab a croissant and café au lait, and stroll the Promenade des Anglais like it's your own personal catwalk.
Afternoon
Hit up the public beaches and work on your Beyoncé-worthy tan. Splurge on a striped cabana rental for that yacht vibe.
Evening
Sip rosé at a budget beach bar and pretend you're on the deck of a mega-yacht. Dance the night away at a club blasting Queen Bey all night long.
Accommodation
Hostel dorm near the beach - bunk beds, but make it bougie
Day 2: Ferry Fabulous to Monaco, Darling
Morning
Take the ferry to Monaco for jaw-dropping yacht views on a backpacker budget. Snap shameless selfies and channel your inner diva.
Afternoon
Tour the Monte Carlo Casino and place a single bet on red - you're feeling lucky, henny. Window shop at designer boutiques like you own the place.
Evening
Pregame with cheap wine in a park, then hit up Jimmy'z Monte Carlo nightclub. Dance until dawn and take the first ferry back to Nice, you party animal.
Accommodation
Crash at the same hostel, upgrade to a private room if you're feeling fancy
Day 3: Beyoncé Beach Day Slay
Morning
Nurse your hangover with a mimosa(s) at brunch. Take the train to Villefranche-sur-Mer for a stunning sandy beach that's a hidden gem.
Afternoon
Rent a lounger and umbrella and spend the day snapping bikini pics in the crystalline water. Treat yourself to a beachside massage on the cheap.
Evening
Watch the sunset with a picnic of fresh baguette, local cheese, and more rosé, obviously. Stroll back to Nice and get your karaoke on at Ma Nolan's Irish Pub.
Accommodation
Splurge on a budget Airbnb with a sea view, you deserve it
Day 4: Farewell, French Riviera Fantasy
Morning
Sleep in (you've earned it), then indulge in a pain au chocolat and espresso at a charming sidewalk café. Take one last strut down the Promenade des Anglais.
Afternoon
Souvenir shop for cheap French Riviera keychains and magnets to prove you lived your best bougie life. Take a final dip in the Mediterranean Sea.
Evening
Cheers to an unforgettable faux-yacht adventure with a budget-friendly bottle of local wine. Promise to come back when you make it big like Beyoncé. Au revoir, Nice!
Accommodation
Last night at the cute Airbnb, already planning your return visit

Additional Notes
Remember, it's not about the size of the yacht, but the size of your fierce attitude and fearless fabulosity. Channel your inner Sasha Fierce and own every moment of this bootleg Beyoncé adventure. You woke up like this!
