RIVIERA ELITE DRIVER
RIVIERA ELITE DRIVER
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 passenger protection are treated as part of the service itself.
When you land at Nice, your private driver is already waiting, and Cannes is some 45 minutes down the road. Your luggage goes straight into a Mercedes-Benz, and you arrive exactly where you are expected.
Terminal 1 or 2 for a scheduled flight, the Business Aviation Terminal for a private one: either way, your chauffeur is ready the moment you come out. We track your flight live, so an early or late landing changes nothing for you.
Summer traffic or a big event in Cannes can stretch the drive past an hour. The price does not move: it is set before you pay, and tolls are included.
Your guest has nothing to do. Send us their name, their flight and the address in Cannes: one person then follows the transfer from start to finish, reachable by phone or WhatsApp until your guest has arrived.
A flight moved up, a trip decided the night before? Tell us the moment you know: we always do everything possible to meet you on arrival.
A transfer means one address in Cannes and a price fixed in advance. With hourly service, the chauffeur and the vehicle remain yours after that, for as long as the day requires.
The Palais des Festivals, a Croisette hotel, a villa in the hills, a yacht at the quay or the train station: your chauffeur takes you right to it.
Book your transfer to CannesA meeting, an afternoon of shopping, drinks on a yacht, dinner in town: when your arrival is only the start of the day, your chauffeur stays at your side, in the same vehicle, for as many hours as you need.
Book a chauffeur by the hourWhether you own the yacht, are a guest aboard or join the crew, your chauffeur drives you from the airport to the quay, luggage included. If the yacht leaves at a set time, tell us: we plan the drive from Nice around it.
Arrange a yacht transferFamilies in summer, delegations whenever a congress fills the Palais: however large your party, we send all the vehicles it needs, coordinated by one person.
Plan a group arrivalOne of these reviews recounts a transfer from Nice Airport: the chauffeur in a suit, the V-Class immaculate. Others recall more than ten years of airport transfers, and requests handled at the very last minute.
We have used them for over 10 years as our regular chauffeur service for airport transfers and various trips around the area, both for ourselves and for our guests.
They have always been punctual, reliable, and available even at short notice. We highly recommend the company to anyone looking for a professional, exclusive, and comfortable travel experience at a very reasonable price.

We have a high standard for our business with clients and these guys deliver time and time again.

Azur Property Care
Riviera Elite Driver provides a wonderful service. I have been using them for many years. Always on time, friendly with perfect service. Valentin even picked me up one time I really needed him even though I called in last minute. I strongly recommend!
I can’t recommend this driver highly enough! From start to finish, the service is absolutely first-class. He is incredibly reliable, always punctual, and goes above and beyond to make every journey smooth and stress-free.
The cars are always spotless and comfortable, and the level of service is outstanding. You can tell that he genuinely cares about his customers and takes great pride in what he does.
If you’re looking for a professional, trustworthy and friendly driver on the French Riviera, look no further. Highly recommended — 5 stars without hesitation!
With a large suitcase and a cabin bag, the E-Class takes you to Cannes in quiet comfort, and in the S-Class, the rear seat is made for resting after a long flight. A family, or a party of up to seven, travels together in the V-Class; when the luggage needs more room, a second vehicle follows.
The drive to Cannes is time of your own: unwind after the flight, or catch up on calls and messages. The cabin is quiet and cool, with Wi-Fi and a charger within reach.
From the terminal to your door, your chauffeur takes care of every bag. Champagne can be chilled on board if you wish, and seats for babies and young children are installed before the pickup: just ask when you book.
For years, hotel groups and fashion houses have been sending us their guests; here are a few of their names. The travelers we drive are never named.
These selected partners and professional references have trusted Riviera Elite Driver with their chauffeur needs for several years. Their names appear here to reflect that long-standing confidence and the services actually provided.
Cannes need not be the last stop. Your chauffeur can take you further along the coast, to Saint-Tropez, Antibes or Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, for a single trip or for a whole day by the hour.
Your terminal at Nice, the business aviation airport on the edge of Cannes, a day trip to Saint-Tropez: three guides to help you plan your stay.
Terminal by terminal, how the welcome works, and the details to send us before your flight.
Explore Nice AirportFlying privately? Cannes-Mandelieu lies even closer to the Croisette than Nice: how arrivals work there.
Explore Cannes-MandelieuGoing for the day from Cannes? Pampelonne and its beaches, the villas of Ramatuelle, and how to time the drive on the only road into Saint-Tropez.
Explore Saint-TropezHotel, Palais, marina or villa: the road from Nice Airport ends in very different places, and no two arrivals are prepared the same way.
After a flight, checking in should be the easy part. Your chauffeur stops at the hotel’s entrance and hands your luggage to the staff, so you walk in with nothing to carry.
Heading straight to the Palais des Festivals after landing? Give us your landing time and your first appointment, and we will tell you honestly whether the timing works. If your flight is late, we adjust with you.
The two marinas sit at opposite ends of the Croisette. Let us know which one, and the name of the yacht, when you book: your chauffeur then heads directly for the right quay.
A morning flight can land hours before check-in. Extend the transfer into hourly service: your luggage stays in the vehicle while you have lunch or stroll along the Croisette, then arrives at the hotel with you.
In La Californie or Super-Cannes, send us the exact address and, if it has one, the villa’s name. Your chauffeur then drives you right up to the house.
During Cannes Lions, MIPIM or the Film Festival, traffic slows on the way into Cannes and some streets close. Your chauffeur plans the drive from the airport accordingly and gets you as close as the day allows.
A wedding, a congress, a week on board: guests land at Nice at different times, from different cities. Each one is met on arrival and driven to Cannes, while a single person follows every flight and remains your only contact.
About 45 minutes without traffic. In July and August, and when a major event is on in Cannes, it can take more than an hour, so leave some margin before a first appointment.
Yes, even if you decide on the way. Just tell your chauffeur, or send us a message: the transfer then becomes hourly service, in the same vehicle and with the same chauffeur.
Not at all. We are available around the clock, seven days a week, so a flight landing at midnight or at dawn is met exactly like any other.
Of course. Book the return like any other transfer, or simply send us your departure flight. We work out the pickup time from your flight, with extra margin in summer and on event days.
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.
Between Nice Airport and Cannes, it means being there before you land, taking the day’s traffic into account, and dropping you at the exact entrance where you are expected.
The vehicle matters. The people who look after you matter more.
