To Saint-Tropez by limousine, pausing en route

Between Nice Côte d’Azur airport and Saint-Tropez, the road passes some of the most beautiful scenery on the French Riviera. Rather than driving straight through, many travellers choose to make a stop. With a private chauffeur it is simple: just plan it when booking.

Favourite stops along the way

Lunch in Cannes

After an early flight, a break on the Croisette or in the Suquet quarter is a gentle start to the holiday. The chauffeur looks after your luggage during the meal.

The Esterel massif

Along the coast road, red rocks plunge into turquoise water. A few minutes’ stop is enough to enjoy one of the most famous panoramas in the region.

Shopping before the villa

Arriving with a full fridge makes all the difference on the first evening. The chauffeur stops at a supermarket or wine merchant before reaching your rental.

Picking up a loved one

A friend arriving by train in Saint-Raphaël? The chauffeur makes the detour so everyone arrives together.

How to arrange your stop

Specify your wishes when booking: place, approximate duration, number of stops. We include them in the quote. On the way, the plan can change if you wish, subject to the chauffeur’s availability.

• Luggage kept safe in the vehicle during the break.
• A chauffeur who knows the easy places to stop.
• Price set in advance, stopping time included.

The right vehicle to travel in comfort

For a family or a group of friends, the Mercedes V-Class offers room for seven passengers and their suitcases. For a couple, a Mercedes saloon is enough. Discover all our models on the page Mercedes fleet.

No stop: the direct journey

If you prefer to arrive as quickly as possible, the direct transfer is still available. Our guide Nice airport – Saint-Tropez compares the different ways to reach the peninsula, and our page private chauffeur Nice – Saint-Tropez presents the service.

Advice from our chauffeurs

In July and August, opt for a short stop in the middle of the day and avoid the hours when the gulf road is busiest. Reserve your table if you are planning lunch. Let us know if you are carrying fresh produce.

More ideas for stops

Antibes and Cap d’Antibes

Shortly after the airport, the old town of Antibes and its ramparts make a first stop. The cape, with its villas and coves, is ideal for a few minutes by the water.

Towards Saint-Raphaël and Fréjus

At the gateway to the Var, Saint-Raphaël and its seafront are perfect for a coffee or lunch. Neighbouring Fréjus has Roman remains for history lovers.

Sainte-Maxime

Directly opposite Saint-Tropez, across the gulf, Sainte-Maxime offers a pleasant stroll before the final kilometres.

Another pause on the return leg

The stop works both ways. For your departure, you can plan a last seaside lunch before heading to the airport. The chauffeur calculates the timing so you can enjoy the break while keeping a comfortable margin before your flight.

With children

A break lets children stretch their legs after the flight. A beach, a park or an ice-cream parlour along the way turns the journey into a pleasant moment for the whole family.

Our team helps you choose the most suitable stop according to your flight arrival time and your wishes.

In summary

A Nice – Saint-Tropez journey with a stop turns a transfer into the first moment of your holiday. Tell us your wishes on our booking page or by WhatsApp: we prepare the programme with you.
