The Riviera Elite Standard
Your chauffeur for the Palais des Congrès d’Antibes Juan-les-Pins
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.
Just 150 meters (about 500 feet) from the sea, facing the Pinède, Antipolis, the convention center of Antibes Juan-les-Pins, hosts conventions, conferences and seminars all year round. Riviera Elite Driver counts among its official partners: your private driver brings speakers, organizers and attendees there.
-
Speakers met in Nice
Allow about 35 minutes between Nice Airport and the Palais. Your chauffeur tracks the flight, waits for the speaker at arrivals and heads straight to the Palais if the session is about to begin.
-
Delegations of every size
The Palais hosts events for 20 to 500 people, and up to 2,500 in all. A sedan for one guest, several V-Classes for a whole team: vehicles are planned from your arrivals list.
-
Hotel to Palais, morning and evening
Close to a thousand hotel rooms lie within walking distance of the Palais. For guests staying on Cap d’Antibes, in Cannes or in Sophia Antipolis, your chauffeur handles the morning ride in and the evening ride back.
-
A town by the water
Juan-les-Pins has plenty to offer once sessions end: its beaches, the Pinède where Jazz à Juan plays every July, the restaurants of Cap d’Antibes. Come evening, you are dropped off and collected later by your chauffeur.
YOUR CHAUFFEUR AT THE PALAIS DES CONGRÈS
Transfers and hourly service during your conference
A fixed-price transfer takes you to the conference and back to the airport. In between, book by the hour and your private car waits nearby, chauffeur included, from one session to a dinner.
-
A Sophia Antipolis meeting between two talks, dinner on Cap d’Antibes after the last one: the same chauffeur stays available, parked near the Palais.
-
A ceremony in Old Antibes, a seaside reception in Juan-les-Pins? Your guests are driven from their hotels to the reception and home again once the party winds down. Valentin oversees every vehicle himself.
-
Running an event at the Palais? Send us your guests’ flights and hotels: we arrange the airport welcome, the morning and evening shuttles, then the departures, vehicle by vehicle.
-
The fare, tolls included, is locked in once you book. For the way back, your chauffeur is ready outside the Palais as the last session ends.

FROM ONE SESSION TO THE NEXT
Key moments of your stay at the Palais
From the day before to the day after, every moment has its ride.
-
The day before
Speakers arrive
Speakers often land the day before: your chauffeur meets them at the airport, even on a late-night flight, and drives them to their Juan-les-Pins hotel.
-
In the morning
Before the opening session
The 500-seat main hall, under the dome, often starts the day with the plenary: your attendees are dropped outside the Palais ahead of the crowds.
-
In the evening
The gala dinner
An evening on Cap d’Antibes or at a hillside villa: your chauffeur waits until dinner ends, then takes everyone back to their hotel.
-
After the conference
One more day on the Riviera
If you stay an extra day, we show you Monaco, Cannes or Saint-Paul-de-Vence on its hilltop, before your flight out of Nice.

GOOD TO KNOW
Any questions about your rides to the Palais des Congrès?
Are you a partner of the Palais des Congrès d’Antibes?
Yes. Riviera Elite Driver is one of the Palais’s official partners, and its website lists us among its transport providers. Organizers and attendees know exactly who they are dealing with.
What is the travel time between Nice Airport and the Palais?
About 35 minutes on the highway, a little longer at rush hour. Pickup times follow your actual landing time: we track every flight.
Can you handle the shuttles for an entire conference?
Yes. Working from the list of flights and hotels, we work out how many vehicles are needed, set the shuttle times and arrange the returns to the airport. You have one contact, from the first vehicle to the last.
For a conference, taxi or private chauffeur?
Taxis are taken in turn at the airport stand, and a whole delegation rarely fits in one. A private chauffeur waits for your guests as they walk out, holding a tablet with their names, in a suit and tie, then drives them to the Palais in a brand-new, latest-generation Mercedes-Benz.
PERSONAL ASSISTANCE
Your conference rides, arranged by Valentin
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. He prepares the arrivals and shuttle plan with the organizers, and answers at any hour during the event.
The vehicle matters. The people who look after you matter more.
