RIVIERA ELITE DRIVER
Riviera Elite Driver provides licensed and insured private chauffeur service across Cannes, Nice, Monaco, Saint-Tropez and the French Riviera. Our vehicles and chauffeurs operate with the professional authorisations required for private passenger transport and are covered by the appropriate insurance for chauffeur operations. Compliance, safety and passenger protection are treated as part of the service itself. Our bilingual chauffeurs work with a regularly renewed Mercedes-Benz fleet and a simple standard: be on time, know the details and adapt when plans change.
Our chauffeurs regularly work with executives, private families, VIP guests and high-profile events. They know when to be present, when to step back, and that conversations, habits and travel plans remain private.
Pickup instructions, terminal details, routing, timing and special requests are checked before the service. If plans change, your chauffeur adjusts.
Our fleet is regularly renewed with latest-generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class, V-Class and S-Class models. We choose them for rear-seat comfort, quiet cabins, useful technology and immaculate presentation.
Palace hotels, luxury hotels, private villas, marinas, restaurants, airports, FBOs and major events are part of our daily work. Our chauffeurs know the entrances, drop-off points and traffic constraints at the places that matter across the French Riviera.
For a few hours, a full day or the length of your stay, your private chauffeur and Mercedes-Benz remain available across the French Riviera. Timings, stops and routes can change as the day unfolds. Champagne, refreshments or specific onboard requests can be arranged in advance. You keep one point of contact from the first message to the final journey.
Private chauffeur transfers to and from Nice Côte d'Azur Airport and Cannes-Mandelieu Airport, for scheduled flights, private aviation and FBO arrivals. We monitor the flight, confirm the terminal or FBO before arrival, and take care of meet-and-greet, luggage and the included airport waiting time. For private aviation, we can coordinate directly with your assistant, concierge, handling agent or aviation contact.
Book an airport transferBook your private chauffeur by the hour, for a full day or over several days. Your chauffeur and Mercedes-Benz remain at your disposal throughout, making this the simplest option for days with several meetings, a conference or congress, restaurant reservations, shopping, an evening engagement or last-minute changes.

We renew the fleet regularly with latest-generation Mercedes-Benz models. The E-Class suits airport transfers and business travel, the V-Class gives families and groups more space, and the S-Class is our choice when rear-seat comfort comes first. Every vehicle is prepared before each private chauffeur service.

Riviera Elite Driver was founded in 2016 by Valentin Sassi, after a career in tourism, luxury hospitality and guest service on the French Riviera. Having worked in five-star hotels and Palaces in Cannes, Valentin moved into private transportation in 2015 with a simple idea: chauffeur service should be delivered with the same care and discretion he had learned in luxury hospitality.
What began as an independent operation grew through recommendations from hotels, local partners and returning clients into a dedicated team of professional chauffeurs, without losing the personal approach of the early years.
Since 2023, Valentin has focused entirely on client relations and service coordination, personally overseeing each request from the first message to the final journey.
The vehicle matters. The people behind the service matter more.
