Itinerary

Stop 1

18 min

Buildings of three and four stories in the Italian style lean up against the Suquet hill, which provides a scenic backdrop to the quay. Along the Old Port side of a two-lane road and a large walkway, a row of restaurants extend their terraces onto a wide sidewalk-promenade lined with palm trees at the base of the buildings.
Stop 2

18 min

When people think of Cannes, they often think of the hilly, meandering, cobblestone street lined with local eateries on Rue St. Antoine, which is located in Le Suquet, the ancient town.
Marche Forville

18 min

Located at the district's lowest point, Marché Forville is a top-notch covered market on the Riviera. Within the market's expansive premises is a section devoted to fragrant flowers.
Rue Meynadier

18 min

Horses and carriages have been using the Rue Meynadier since the 16th century. Today, only pedestrians use it, and they do so to follow their whims down a bustling retail street where the butcher sits next to the cheesemaker and the fashion boutiques are surrounded by the local products. Give in to its allure and let yourself be charmed by the locations that will lead you directly to the Suquet.
Stop 5

18 min

The Allées de la Liberté are situated in the very center of the city, at the foot of the city's historic area, between the recently refurbished Cours Félix Faure and the Pantiero promenade. They represent the inseparable marriage of the city's local origins and its openness to the world.
Stop 6

18 min

A convention center in Cannes, France, the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès hosts the Cannes Film Festival, the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, and the NRJ Music Award.
Boulevard De La Croisette

19 min

La Croisette is an iconic beachfront boardwalk in Cannes, and the beach that runs along it is a long, public expanse of sand.
