Cannes is one of the most famous cities on the Cote d'Azur, renowned for both its film festival and its enduring pull for the rich and famous. Set at the heart of the French Riviera, Cannes is much more than a millionaire's playground; the romantic harbour and La Croisette Boulevard form the centre of the town, which is lined with designer shops and restaurants.
The A8/E8 skirts along the evocative Cote d'Azur coastline through Nice and then Monaco, making car hire in Cannes particularly agreeable with such wonderful cities in close proximity. Hiring a car in Cannes is available from our branch on the Rue d'Antibes near the City Centre, or Nice Airport.
You'll most likely fly in to Nice Airport if you're visiting Cannes which is just over 30km away. Once in Cannes many tourists head for the cobbled hills of Le Suquet, which is Cannes Old Town. From here you can survey the city from a higher vantage point and get your bearings over La Croisette Boulevard.
If you're hiring a car in Cannes you''d do well to take the short drive into Nice; both for the scenic roads and Nice's place as France's second city. Antibes - a short drive east - is slightly cheaper for tourists, and the enchanting Roquebrune-Cap-Martin are also perfect day trips.
