Private Half Day Tour: Antibes and Cannes Exclusive

From the billionaires' quay to the red carpet, the Riviera's most iconic landmarks in four hours.


This private half day tour of Antibes and Cannes delivers the essential glamour of the French Riviera in a compact, expertly curated itinerary. Traveling in a premium air-conditioned minivan, you will visit Port Vauban, Antibes Old Town, Cap d'Antibes, and the legendary Croisette boulevard in Cannes.

Few stretches of coastline pack as much history and modern luxury into such a short distance as the route between Antibes and Cannes. Ancient ramparts stand within sight of superyachts measuring over 100 meters, and narrow medieval lanes open onto promenades lined with flagship boutiques.

Because the tour is private, the pace adapts to your group. Whether you want a longer pause to photograph the yachts in Port Vauban or extra time exploring the backstreets of the old town, the guide works around your preferences rather than a fixed group schedule.

The Croisette in Cannes is the fitting finale. Outside of the Film Festival period it remains one of the most recognizable seafront boulevards in the world, and the perspective from ground level, looking along the curve of the bay toward the Esterel hills, is genuinely striking.

Tour Highlights

Walk the docks of Port Vauban, one of Europe's largest marinas, where some of the world's most impressive superyachts are moored.

Explore the historic ramparts and labyrinthine streets of Antibes Old Town, a remarkably well-preserved medieval quarter.

Drive through Cap d'Antibes, an exclusive peninsula known for its grand Belle Epoque villas and quiet pine-fringed coves.

Stroll the Croisette boulevard in Cannes, the celebrated avenue that becomes the global center of cinema each May during the Film Festival.

Travel exclusively in a premium air-conditioned minivan with a private guide dedicated entirely to your group.

Cover two of the Riviera's most celebrated destinations in a single efficient half-day without the constraints of a shared group tour.

Itinerary

1
Port Vauban, Antibes

Your tour begins at Port Vauban, widely referred to as the Billionaires' Quay. The marina is one of the largest in Europe and regularly hosts superyachts that dwarf the surrounding quaysides.

2
Antibes Old Town

A short walk from the port, the old town reveals a different pace entirely. Historic ramparts overlook the sea while the interior lanes are filled with local markets, galleries, and centuries-old architecture.

3
Cap d'Antibes

The tour continues to Cap d'Antibes, a discreet and leafy peninsula that has attracted artists, writers, and the very wealthy for well over a century. The coastline and villa-lined roads make for a scenic drive.

4
The Croisette, Cannes

The tour concludes with a walk along the Croisette, Cannes' signature seafront promenade. Lined with palace hotels and designer boutiques, it offers sweeping views across the Bay of Cannes toward the Lerins Islands.
