Booking in one of these weeks?
Six or seven times a year this coast stops behaving like a road network. Here is what happens, and what to do about it.
Monaco Grand Prix
When: Late spring or early June, with road restrictions and event activity across the Grand Prix weekend
What actually changes. The Monaco street circuit uses roads through the centre of the Principality. During race operations, sections of the circuit close to general traffic, and access around Quai Albert Ier and Quai Antoine Ier can face event restrictions.
What to do. Book early and send us your hotel, residence, or yacht berth, along with the full address. We can use those details to plan your pickup or drop-off around the available road access. Event restrictions may require a drop-off outside the controlled area, followed by a short walk to your destination.
Cannes Film Festival
When: May, for around 12 days
What actually changes. The Festival de Cannes has a controlled festival zone covering the Palais des Festivals, Riviera, and International Village. Entry to the main professional areas requires the appropriate accreditation, and central Cannes carries the accredited industry on top of its usual May traffic.
What to do. Book your transfer once your flight is confirmed. Send us your hotel name and, when relevant, your Festival accreditation type. We can then plan your arrival around the entrance you need.
Monaco Yacht Show
When: Late September, over four days
What actually changes. The Monaco Yacht Show takes place at Port Hercule, with designated entrances, different pass categories, and security checks around show access. Captains and crew use separate registration and access arrangements from regular visitors.
What to do. Send us the vessel name and berth when you are joining or visiting a yacht. Tell us when you book if you are travelling as crew. We can plan your transfer for the appropriate crew access point.
Nice Carnival
When: February into early March, with festivities running for more than two weeks
What actually changes. Carnival event zones affect Place Masséna, Avenue de Verdun, and sections of the Promenade des Anglais, with pedestrian areas, controlled entrances, and road restrictions around parade times.
What to do. Send us your hotel name, particularly if you are staying around Place Masséna, the Old Town, or the Promenade. When road restrictions block the usual route, we can set your meeting point on the nearest accessible road.
Event-week pricing is quoted individually
Our team prices each event-week transfer individually. Driver availability and road access determine the quote, because both affect what transfer arrangements are possible on the day.
Contact us early so we can quote a price and a workable transfer plan. Booking early improves your choice of available drivers and practical access points.
Event dates change from year to year. Check the organiser's official dates before booking flights, accommodation or transfers.
Nice city centre from the other Riviera airports
What people book us for
The journeys that come up every week on this coast, and what to tell us when you book one.
If your dates fall in a festival week
Grand Prix, the Film Festival, Cannes Lions, MIPIM, MIPCOM and the Yacht Show all close roads and empty the coast of cars. Those weeks are quoted by hand and booked early — tell us the hotel or the berth rather than the street, because the street may not be reachable on the day.
The hotel name is worth more than the postcode
Old towns here are pedestrian, villa lanes are private and gated, and half the seafront closes for something at some point in the year. Name the place and we will already know which side a car can reach.
One invoice instead of a card at the door
Companies, hotels, villa agencies and yacht managers are invoiced monthly against a rate card. Nothing is handed over in the car and nobody has to keep a receipt.
Book the return at the same time
The return is where transfers go wrong, because it is booked last and in a hurry. Doing both at once takes a percentage off, fixes the departure time against your flight, and means one car and one driver already know your name.
The late arrival and the early departure
We drive the 06:00 pickups and the flights that land after midnight, and they are priced in advance rather than negotiated at the time. It is the hour at which having a name on a sign matters most.
Hands for the heavy cases
Your driver meets you inside arrivals and takes the bags from there. Worth knowing if you are travelling alone with two heavy cases, or with a stroller and a toddler at the same time.
Questions about Nice city centre
How long does the Cannes Airport to Nice city centre transfer take?
About 35 min for the 30 km, door to door and without stops. Where the season changes that — and on this coast it does — we build it into your pickup time rather than apologising for it afterwards.
How much is a transfer from Cannes Airport to Nice city centre?
One fixed price for the whole vehicle rather than per person, all-inclusive, and you have it before you book. Send the route, your flight number and how many of you there are, and we come back with the figure — once it is agreed it does not move. Summer, night and weekend pickups and event weeks are quoted by hand.
What happens to my airport transfer if my flight is delayed?
We track your flight using the flight number from your booking. We adjust your pickup time to match when your flight lands.
Your driver waits for up to 60 minutes after you land at no extra charge. Your agreed transfer price stays the same when your flight arrives late.
Is the price really fixed?
Yes. The price you agree is the price you pay — per vehicle, not per person. Motorway tolls, the Italian border, luggage, golf and ski bags are all included. There is no meter and no surge pricing.
Can you take us to a yacht?
Yes, and it is a regular job. Give us the marina and the berth, or the name of the boat, and whether you are a guest or crew — the guest gates and the crew gates are not the same, and at Port Hercule in show week neither is where you would guess.
Do you have child seats?
Yes, free. Tell us the children's ages when you book and the correct seats are fitted before we collect you.
How do I pay?
Card, bank transfer, or cash to the driver. Business accounts are invoiced monthly. Nothing is charged until your transfer is confirmed.
