Tourists from all over the world are drawn to Cannes for more than its glamorous lifestyle. Nestled in the Southern Coast of France, not far from the Italian border, Cannes enjoys an unusually high amount of sunshine throughout the year. As such, Cannes holidays are even popular in December and January as an appealing alternative to Ireland in the winter months.
Our escorted Cannes holidays offer a great taste of the city and the wider Cote d'Azur. We offer a range of short breaks and seven night holidays to Cannes, an ideal base to explore and discover other parts of the Cote d'Azur.
Blessed with a superb Mediterranean climate, A-list film stars and beachfront promenades, a holiday to Cannes is the perfect opportunity to get away from it all. The “star” of the Cote d’Azur in the South of France, Cannes is famous for its celebrity image complete with yachts, sports cars and glamorous villas and hotels. Whereas nearby Provence has rural charm, Cannes has city style.
Cannes has been a hit with holiday-makers for many decades both as a city break destination and as part of a wider Cote d’Azur holiday. Cannes is famous for its main Avenue – La Croisette – a long beach front avenue lined with palm trees where you can soak up the warm sunshine mixed with a pleasant Mediterranean breeze. It’s also a renowned area for restaurants, cafes and shopping boutiques. Cannes also contains an old-town known as "Le Suquet" where winding cobbled streets lead to fantastic views of the city and coast.
