The Riviera Elite Standard
Four days of ILTM in Cannes, one chauffeur
Riviera Elite Driver provides a licensed and insured private chauffeur service operated in accordance with the professional requirements for private passenger transport. Our vehicles and chauffeurs hold the required professional authorizations and are covered by the appropriate insurance for chauffeur operations. Compliance, safety and the protection of our clients are integral to our standards.
Every year at the end of fall, ILTM brings luxury travel brands and the advisors who design their clients’ trips to the Palais des Festivals in Cannes. Four days of appointments, conferences and parties: your private driver follows your schedule, so you never have to think about the next ride.
Met the moment you land
Flying commercial into Nice or by private jet into Cannes-Mandelieu, your chauffeur follows your flight live and welcomes you on arrival. From Nice, Cannes is about 45 minutes away; Cannes-Mandelieu lies just outside town.
New Mercedes-Benz, latest generation
Each vehicle stays immaculate all week long: the S-Class to escort a distinguished guest, the V-Class for a team of up to seven.
An office between meetings
Between appointments, you make your calls, review a proposal or prepare for the next meeting. Your chauffeur lets you work in peace, impeccably turned out in suit and tie.
Cannes in its winter calm
Off-season, the Croisette is quiet again, but your evenings may take you far from the Palais, to hotels in the hills or out on Cap d’Antibes. Your chauffeur takes you there and brings you back.

ILTM, DAY BY DAY
From arrival to your last meeting
From the first evening to the final day, every moment of the show comes with its own ride.
Arriving the evening before
Even on a late flight, your chauffeur welcomes you as you land and drops you at your hotel: the next morning, you are at the Palais as the doors open.
Appointment days
From 9 AM, meetings follow one after another at the Palais. If your hotel is far from the Croisette, your chauffeur collects you every morning and brings you back each evening.
Receptions and dinners
A reception at a hotel, dinner with a client in Mougins: your chauffeur waits as long as needed, then takes you back.
Touring Riviera hotels
Making the most of your trip to visit hotels in Monaco, Saint-Tropez or on Cap d’Antibes? Book your chauffeur for the day, and the tour is planned from one hotel to the next.

GOOD TO KNOW
Any questions about your chauffeur during ILTM?
When is ILTM Cannes?
Every year in late November or early December, at the Palais des Festivals.
Can your chauffeur stay near the Palais all day?
That is exactly what hourly service is for: your chauffeur never strays far and joins you whenever you call, between meetings or once your day is done.
Can you drive an entire delegation?
Yes, whether you are three or fifteen. We plan the vehicles around your team and your luggage, and you keep the same contact until the show ends.
Why book a private chauffeur for ILTM instead of taking a taxi?
At peak times, taxis can be slow to arrive outside the Palais. Your private chauffeur, booked for your days at the show, arrives on time, in suit and tie, in a brand-new, latest-model Mercedes-Benz, and stays with you from morning to night.
PERSONAL ASSISTANCE
Valentin plans your rides for ILTM
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.
Your schedule changes mid-show? Just send a message and we adjust your rides right away, at any hour.
The vehicle matters. The people who look after you matter more.
