The Riviera Elite Standard

The service starts before you step inside

Everything checked before we set off

The pickup point, the terminal, the route, your requests: everything is confirmed before your chauffeur sets out. Plans that change during the day? We are ready for that too.

Latest-generation Mercedes-Benz

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.

Discretion as standard

Executives, families, public figures and the guests of five-star hotels travel with us. Your conversations, your habits and your addresses stay strictly between you and us.

Local knowledge that matters

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 each entrance, each place to wait and the moment it pays to leave early.

Bespoke Chauffeur Services

A service built around your schedule

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 share the details once, and the same person looks after everything until the last journey.

Chauffeur at your disposal

By 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 hour

Weddings & private events

Ceremony, reception, last dance: for a wedding or a private celebration anywhere on the Riviera, we bring your guests to the venue and home again, each vehicle timed to the running order of the day.

Arrange your wedding

French Riviera private transfers

From 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.

Calculate your journey

Airport & private aviation

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.

VIP & Event Chauffeur Service

Major events on the French Riviera

The Cannes Film Festival, Cannes Lions, the Yachting Festival, the Monaco Grand Prix: during the big weeks, roads close, drives take longer and schedules move at the last minute. We plan each pickup around all of it, so you still arrive when you mean to.

Monaco

Monaco Grand Prix

During Grand Prix week, we drive you from Cannes or Nice to Monaco and back, for hospitality venues, yachts in the harbor, dinners and evenings.

Cannes

Cannes Yachting Festival

Your chauffeur links Nice Airport, your hotel and the two harbors of the show, the Vieux Port and Port Canto, for every day of the festival.

Private Assistance

From five-star hospitality to private chauffeur service

Valentin Sassi founded Riviera Elite Driver in 2016, after a career in tourism and luxury hospitality on the French Riviera. In the five-star hotels and Palaces of Cannes, he learned what great hospitality demands: attention to detail, discretion and the art of anticipation. These qualities have become his signature.

At first the only one behind the wheel, he earned the trust of hotels, partners and loyal clients, then brought together a team of professional chauffeurs who share his vision of the craft.

Since 2023, he has devoted himself entirely to his clients: he personally organizes every journey and coordinates your chauffeurs.

Day and night, seven days a week, the whole team is just a call away.

The vehicle matters. The people who look after you matter more.
