Discover Antibes with Your Private Chauffeur

Antibes is a charming town, tucked away from the bustle of Nice and Cannes. The best way to fully enjoy everything the city has to offer is with a private chauffeur. They will accompany you on shopping trips, drive you to evening events, and pick you up from the airport, always with reliability and punctuality.

The city center of Antibes will captivate you with its quaint, picturesque streets. While the breathtaking sea views are a highlight, Antibes’ cultural and artistic heritage is equally impressive. Here’s a curated guide to the must-see sites in the second-largest city of the Alpes-Maritimes.

Explore Antibes’ Old Town

If you enjoy strolling at a leisurely pace between sea and mountains, sipping coffee on a small square, or visiting local artisans’ workshops, Antibes will delight you. The town is marked by architecture characteristic of military cities built by Vauban. Don’t miss the Fort Carré on the Saint-Roch peninsula, built in the 16th century to protect Provence from the Duchy of Savoy.

The Provençal Market of Antibes

Held every morning under the Cours Masséna market hall, this is your chance to discover the best local gastronomic products: charcuterie, cheeses, southern spices, and fresh-cut flower bouquets. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of this traditional market, where tourists and locals mingle in perfect conviviality.

The Must-See Picasso Museum of Antibes

Did you know Picasso was named “Honorary Citizen of Antibes” in 1957? He had established his studio in 1946 at the Château des Grimaldi, where more than 245 of his works are now displayed. In this magnificent historic château, you can admire the paintings he created during his stay in Antibes, with “La Joie de Vivre” standing out as the most emblematic work of this period.

Cap d’Antibes

Access this little corner of paradise via the “Smugglers’ Path.” You’ll encounter luxurious villas and castles along the way. Stretching 25 km along the coast, this area boasts sandy beaches and hidden coves perfect for swimming.

Parking can be difficult in peak season, so having a private chauffeur drop you off is the ideal solution, saving you time and stress.

Where to Eat and Stay in Antibes?

Staying in Antibes allows you to enjoy the very best of Alpes-Maritimes gastronomy, blending Provençal flavors with Italian influences.

Combine history and fine dining at Le Figuier de Saint-Esprit, perched atop the old town walls between the Picasso Museum and the Provençal market. Don’t miss the legendary Vallauris clay-baked lamb saddle from the Alpilles.

For modern French cuisine, visit Le Vauban, just 200 meters from the Picasso Museum in a lively old-town street. The chef’s generosity shines through every dish.
