Private chauffeur at Hotel Negresco, Nice

The hotel faces the Promenade des Anglais, a large multi-lane avenue where you cannot stop just anywhere. The chauffeur approaches by the lane nearest the entrance and stops at the place provided for welcoming hotel guests, following the instructions of the staff. If you arrive from the airport, the route follows the bay and takes generally a quarter of an hour to twenty-five minutes.

On some days the Promenade is restricted or closed to traffic: running races, cycling events, parades. The chauffeur knows before setting off and drops you via a side street when necessary. State your dates if you are staying during the Carnival or a major race.

A few minutes from the hotel are the Albert I garden, Place Masséna, Old Nice with the Cours Saleya and its market, Castle Hill and Port Lympia. Higher up, Cimiez holds museums and gardens. A half-day or full-day chauffeur links these places without you hunting for parking, and collects you at the agreed time outside the hotel.

For dinner in Old Nice the chauffeur drops you as close as possible to the pedestrian lanes. Give the restaurant address and the finishing time you want, and we arrange the return.

The most requested rides from the Promenade go to Monaco, by the Basse Corniche or the motorway, to Èze and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat for a day of sightseeing, to Cannes for a meeting or an event, and to Saint-Paul-de-Vence for lunch. Each has its own page on the site: journey time, routes and timing advice are detailed there.

For the return to the airport, give your terminal and flight time: we work out the departure with the margin you want.
