Nice에서 Cannes까지 Private car transfer

For instance, you can take a detour to the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild to pursue an opulent and whimsical museum built originally as the private estate of Charlotte Béatrice de Rothschild, an ultra-wealthy banking heiress seeking a place to display her art collection. Today, the villa and its many themed gardens are open to the public.

Or, consider visiting the largest green space in Nice, the Parc du Mont Boron. Here, visitors can enjoy almost 7 miles (11 km) of walking trails dotted with native tree species. At the crowning hill of the park rests the 16th-century Fort du Mon Alban, an imposing walled structure complete with a drawbridge.

One of the busiest towns along the Riviera, Cannes is not far from Nice or Monaco, yet it maintains a unique identity that draws in around 3 million visitors a year. Once a fishing village, the city has blossomed into a cosmopolitan oasis known for its red-carpet affairs and luxurious hotels, restaurants, and bars. While it may seem ultra-ritzy, Cannes also offers approachable local dining, an easy-to-navigate public transportation system (and great walkability), as well as plenty of free activities to enjoy while soaking up the balmy temperatures.

The locals of Cannes have a saying that perfectly captures its charming appeal: “Qui li ven li vieù” ("Whoever goes there, lives there"). The array of pristine beaches, traditional French cafes, and a distinct touch of luxury make it an unforgettable destination for travelers from all walks of life. Outside of the film festival period, Canes offers a quiet and peaceful retreat that rounds out any tour of France.

Private transfer from Nice to Cannes

The best option for many travelers is a private car transfer service such as the one offered by Daytrip. This fast, comfortable option offers great value for travelers, starting at just $18.95 (€17) per seat for convenient door-to-door service with an English-speaking driver and the option to add sightseeing stops along the way. This is an affordable taste of the luxurious experiences that define Cannes.

The private transfer is also a great choice for those arriving at the Nice airport or leaving from the Cannes airport, as you will have much greater control over your departure time and itinerary than you will when relying on public transportation.

Train from Nice to Cannes

The train from Nice to Cannes takes about 40 minutes, not including the time spent navigating to and from the train station in both cities. Tickets can vary wildly in cost, ranging from $6 (€5) to as much as $45 (€41) for the short-distance ride, depending on your travel date and time.

Bus from Nice to Cannes

The bus from Cannes also takes around 40 minutes, though tickets are generally better priced at an average cost of about $6 to $9 (€5-€8). There are longer bus routes that involve a transfer to the line 81 bus part of the way through, but these take almost 2 hours and may only be useful as a last resort if the primary route is overbooked.

Taxi from Nice to Cannes

A taxi from Nice to Cannes will take 30-40 minutes, depending on your specific pickup and drop-off locations, but be mindful that taxis in this area are generally very expensive. The average fare for this route is $90 to $120 (€81-€108) despite the cities not being very far apart.

Helicopter charter from Nice to Cannes

For the highly adventurous traveler, it is possible to rent out a helicopter charter for this transfer, which involves about 20 minutes of in-air time and varying lengths of time spent on the ground for safety preparations. This option is more of a high-end novelty experience than a pragmatic transfer choice, and the costs reflect that at about $800 to $1,000 (€722-€903) per flight.

Ferry from Nice to Cannes

There is a ferry company as well as several smaller boat tours that operate between Nice and Cannes in the summer months, but the journey will take around an hour. Ticket prices can vary with the seasons and across boat companies but are generally reported to be around $30 to $55 (€27-€50). To save time, other public transport methods or private car services are better options.

Run (or watch) the Nice-Cannes marathon

Each year in the autumn months (typically in early November), the French Riviera hosts one of the most popular marathon races in the world. Starting in Nice and ending in Cannes, the route follows an incredible path between the Mediterranean Sea and the mountains encircling the area. The race starts at the Promenade des Anglais in Nice and finishes along the Boulevard de la Croisette in Cannes.

For those less inclined to join the race, the festivities surrounding the marathon can be great fun to join in on, and the autumn months in Cannes generally offer cooler weather and a reprieve from the biggest crowds.

Visit the Palace of Festivals and Congresses

This dominant building right on the Cannes seafront hosts the Cannes Film Festival each year and is open in the off-seasons to the public. Inside, visitors can delight in learning more about the history of the festival and the French film industry, as well as see displays featuring the red carpet and various celebrity handprints. The Palace is a great free attraction for the whole family, and its central seaside location makes it the perfect jumping-off point for your Cannes exploration.

Stroll the Marché Forville

The Marché Forville is a fantastic traditional market bursting with activity and local flavor. Visitors can shop alongside Cannes residents for produce, prepared foods, and locally grown flowers for an enchanting and quintessentially French experience.

Explore IGY Vieux-Port de Cannes

This is the old marina of Cannes, standing as a preserved testament to the city’s days as a fishing village. For the seafood aficionado, this is the place to go for an exciting range of restaurants and fish markets. The vibrant area is also full of small shops and offers a stunning seaside backdrop for morning strolls.
