Airport Car Hire

Although Cannes – Mandelieu Airport serves the city of Cannes itself, most visitors heading to the French Riviera from elsewhere in Europe and further afield tend to arrive into Nice Côte d'Azur Airport. This hub of international travel has an Enterprise branch on site, allowing arriving passengers the chance to commence the next leg of their journey quickly, conveniently and affordably. Customers will find a quality range of rental vehicles, from reliable runabouts and people carriers for family holidays, to executive models for those visiting on business. Less than 27 kilometres away via the A8, the journey from the arrivals gate to Cannes is an effortless one and usually takes no longer than 30 minutes.

Attractions In Cannes

There's plenty to discover along this stunning stretch of the French Riviera. The ancient old town is still standing in many places, with some buildings dating back to as early as the 11th century, making it a must for history buffs. For those looking to engage the imaginations little ones, it's worth pencilling in some time to visit the La Malmaison Museum, a celebration of contemporary art, as well as the Castre Museum, a shrine to historic Mediterranean exhibits set within a centuries-old monastery overlooking the Bay of Cannes. A bevvy of glorious public beaches also means sun lovers are well catered for. For those only in town for a short visit, an Enterprise rental makes quick work of connecting journeys between essential activities and must-see landmarks.

Places To Visit Outside Cannes

Cannes might pack plenty of attractions within its limits, but beyond its borders, there's plenty more to discover. Even for those that have passed through on arrival, a return to Nice for a driving day trip is definitely worth considering. Home to breath-taking architecture, archaeological finds and a fabulous dining scene, there's plenty to keep everyone occupied here. After prying away from the thrall of this majestic city, it's time to venture further on to another jewel in the crown of the French Riviera, the Principality of Monaco.

Parking And Traffic Information In Cannes

Driving in Cannes can seem like a daunting prospect to the unfamiliar, but like any new environment, it just takes some acclimatising to. For those who intend on staying within the city limits for the duration of their trip, it's worth taking some time to become familiar with the main arterial roads and thoroughfares in the city to save the hassle of wrong turns and dead ends down the line. It's best to avoid driving during the peak rush hours of early to mid-morning and the mid-afternoon, particularly if there's somewhere to be. Parking can come at a premium in Cannes, so car rental drivers are advised to seek spaces further out from the city centre for more affordable alternatives.
