Inclusions

Itinerary

1. After being picked-up at your hotel by our English-speaking tour guide, you will head towards the motorway (speedway) and shoot off from there to the the scintillating town of Cannes. Explore the city and discover its magnificent palaces along the Croisette boulevard : the Carlton, the Majestic or the Martinez where the stars are staying during the Film Festival.

2. Take the opportunity to walk on the famous red carpet covering the world famous steps of the Palais des Festivals - where it all takes place in May - you might feel like walking up ‘the 24 steps of glory’ and perhaps strike your most graceful pose on the red carpet. Do have a look at the local Walk of Fame with its celebrities’ handprints before you go, too.

   1 h

3. Once the high-end boutiques and splendid hotels of Cannes are left behind, you will take the coastal road to Antibes which traverses the summer resorts of Golfe-Juan and Juan-les-Pins, both steeped in history as well as ongoing events. You’ve now reached Antibes, or Antipolis as the Greeks had first named it. A town which played the role of sentinel for the country during many centuries, hence its ramparts circling the Old Town. There you might consider strolling along those XVth century walls and Grimaldi Castle - nowadays the Picasso museum. Then your guide will drive you out of the Old Town. Once past Antibes’ large marina and its ‘Billionaires’ Quay‘, you will proceed along the coastline until you reach the town of Villeneuve-Loubet with its extraordinary ‘Marina of the Bay of Angels’ from where you will go inland towards your last site visit.

   1.8 h

4. Last but not least, Saint-Paul-de-Vence will enchant you. When walking through the mesmerizing maze of cobbled streets with their numerous listed monuments, it becomes clear how this medieval village appealed to a vast number of artists with the likes of Matisse, Modigliani, Chagall or Picasso instilling a definite artistic touch that one can now ascertain when gazing at the windows of the countless art galleries. Taking you back to another time - notably due to its aura of light at certain hours - it is no wonder why famous actors too have chosen the quaint village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence as their ideal retreat when coming to stay on the Riviera.

• 3Just a red carpet

  Too short a time in first two stops. However, Cannes was disappointing.

• 5Relaxed and Informative Tour

  Our full day tour with Alex was brilliant. As a group of four, we found Alex informative and engaging. He gave us a brief history of Nice, Cannes, Antibes and St Paul de Vence. Great lunch recommendation. The transportation and pickup points were precise. Thank you a great day!

• 5Day Visit Cannes, Antibes, St Paul de Vance

  Thoroughly enjoyed this tour with Alex as our guide to Cannes, Antibes and St Paul de Vence. He was on time and allowed enough time to walk and enjoy all three towns. Didn't feel I had to rush. Spoke with a proper tone so we all can hear in the van. Very knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

• 5Awesome Day

  Melina was a great guide and driver, glad it wasn’t us taking the narrow roads. Cannes is a beautiful place to observe, not my favorite. Next Antibes- spectacular views, went to Picasso Museum- awesome experience- my favorite part, enjoyed a panini at the market. St Paul was a quaint town with a lot of character and history, amazing! Enjoyed the adventure

About Nice

Nice is the sunny capital of the French Riviera, where a palm-lined promenade curves along a blue bay and a pastel old town buzzes with markets.

The Promenade des Anglais follows the Baie des Anges for kilometres, with pebble beaches and the turquoise sea on one side and grand hotels on the other. Vieux Nice, the old town, is a maze of narrow lanes, Baroque churches and ochre façades, and the Cours Saleya hosts a flower and produce market.
