Drive Through Cannes and Beyond
The journey kicks off with a drive along Cannes, famous for its film festival and luxury streets. We loved the way the guide pointed out the high-end shops and palaces, giving us a sense of the city’s glamorous reputation. It’s a quick peek, but enough to soak in the glamour.
Next, the tour heads along the seafront road toward Juan Les Pins. Here, you’ll enjoy views of the Lérins Islands, which add a charming maritime backdrop. The highlight? Approaching the Cap d’Antibes, where we were captivated by the spectacular residences and the small port of Olivette. The Eden Roc Hotel—a favorite among stars—adds a touch of old Hollywood glamour to the scenery.
The Gateway to Stunning Views: Garoupe Lighthouse
One of the most memorable stops is at the Garoupe Lighthouse. Our guide took the time to share interesting tidbits about the lighthouse and the area, and we were encouraged to take photos of the panoramic views of the sea and mountains. These are the kind of moments that stick with you long after the drive.
From there, it’s a short drive to Palm Beach in Cannes, known for hosting the city’s most glamorous evening parties. While we didn’t stay long, the stop gave us a glimpse into the lively, luxurious nightlife scene.
The Experience and What It Means for You
This tour isn’t about filling your day with multiple stops or deep dives into local history. Instead, it’s about enjoying a high-speed, high-style look at the Riviera’s beauty. The private guide makes a big difference—without a large group, you get personalized attention and plenty of photo opportunities.
The price reflects the exclusivity and the experience of driving a Ferrari in one of the world’s most glamorous regions. While $632 might seem steep, remember that it includes insurance, private transportation, a guide, and photos—which help justify the cost for those seeking a memorable luxury experience.
Many reviews highlight how enthusiastic and professional the driver was, making the short drive both safe and exhilarating. One traveler from Germany called it “so much fun” and appreciated the “wonderful car and driver.” Another praised the “great experience” and the “fantastic, enthusiastic” driver.
