Grasse sits just behind Cannes on the French Riviera. The location of the town puts it in prime position to explore both the beauty of the Cote d'Azur and the rolling countryside of Provence. Car hire from Grasse is inevitably popular, and is the best way to get around the area. Grasse is often considered as the ‘world capital of perfume' and the scent industry is still a large part of the local economy; find out more at the International Museum of Perfume. As well as the perfume heritage, the town is known for its picturesque quality with the beautiful Notre Dame de Puy Cathedral standing at the summit of the town.
The local gorges are a short drive away and you can get there easily by hiring a car from Grasse at our pickup location which can be found at Place Martelly. Most visitors will acquaint themselves with Grasse by driving around the hilly territory of the inner-town and it's advised to take an excursion to the Gorges du Loup which is a short drive on the D2210. To see outside of Grasse you can rent a car from Hertz and take the D6185 to Cannes, stopping-off at the acclaimed Musee Mougins. One of the Riviera's modern cultural treasures.
