Free Tour of Cannes
♡ Save
See Cannes beyond the red carpet. Explore its old town, historic streets, and coastal charm while learning how this glamorous Film Festival city became a symbol of elegance and Mediterranean beauty.
Our walk in the city will take you to discover the most ancient history of the city. Rue Meynadier, the first road built in the city, will take us to the covered market, Marché Forville, where every day for many years different cultures met exchanging their best products and materials. We will walk in the Suquet, the fishermen's village, the first settlement built up the hill. Once on the top, from the Castle's terrace, the amazing views will welcome you to the city highest point of view.
From here the rest of the tour will take us to discover the newest side of the city, with its beautiful Port Pierre Canto, where clear waters host big and smaller boats, the Boulevard la Croisette with all the big and luxury Brands, and obviously the famous Palace of Festivals and Congress, where we will end our tour with a stunning photo on the Red Carpet.
