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.
Executives, families, public figures and the guests of five-star hotels travel with us. Your conversations, your habits and your addresses are never shared, with anyone.
The pickup point, the terminal or the villa gate, the route and your requests are confirmed before your chauffeur leaves. If your plans change during the day, your chauffeur changes with them.
Every E-Class, V-Class and S-Class in our fleet is a recent model, chosen for the comfort of its rear seat and the quiet of its cabin, and prepared before each journey.
From the Croisette to the villas of Saint-Tropez, from the Business Aviation Terminal at Nice to the quays of Port Vauban, our chauffeurs know which entrance to use, where to wait and when to leave early.
Book a single transfer at a fixed price, or keep your chauffeur for an afternoon, a day or your entire stay. If you are arranging travel for an executive, a family or guests, you give the details once and deal with one person until the last journey.
Whether you land at Terminal 1, Terminal 2 or the Business Aviation Terminal of Nice Côte d’Azur Airport, or at Cannes-Mandelieu or La Môle on a private flight, your chauffeur follows the flight and meets you on arrival. Airport waiting time is included. For a private flight, we work directly with your assistant, your concierge or the FBO.
Book an airport transferBy the hour, for the day or over several days, your chauffeur and Mercedes-Benz stay with you. For a day of meetings, a congress, lunch and an evening out, it is the simplest way to travel: no new booking between stops, and room for last-minute changes.
Book by the hourFrom Cannes to Saint-Tropez, from Antibes to Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Nice or Monaco: door to door, at a fixed price confirmed before you pay, tolls included.

The vehicles shown here are part of our current fleet, renewed regularly. The E-Class suits airport transfers and business travel, the S-Class is our choice when rear-seat comfort comes first, and the V-Class seats up to seven passengers. For a group or an event, several vehicles and chauffeurs are arranged under one booking, with one person to call.
Before each pickup, your chauffeur sets the cabin temperature, chills the water in the onboard refrigerator and checks the chargers. Opening the door and carrying your luggage go without saying.
On request, Champagne or another drink can be waiting for you, and baby seats, child seats and boosters are fitted with advance notice.

Riviera Elite Driver was founded in 2016 by Valentin Sassi, after a career in tourism, luxury hospitality and guest service on the French Riviera. His experience in five-star hotels and Palaces in Cannes shaped a simple idea from the outset: chauffeur service should be delivered with the same care, discretion and attention to detail as 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.
Our team remains available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to coordinate chauffeur services and assist clients throughout their journey.
The vehicle matters. The people who look after you matter more.
