Cannes Travel Forum

We are a group of 8 arriving by ship to Cannes in June. How expensive would it be to hire a taxi to take us to St Paul de Vence? I read there is no train that goes directly there. Rental cars are quite expensive to fit 8 people. Any help or suggestions I would appreciate.

You can get a bus direct from Nice (about an hour, regular service), or take the train to Cagnes-Sur-Mer and then a short bus or taxi ride.

Details in English on the official village website:

will give you the bus timetables from Nice>St Paul in English. Buses leave roughly every 35 - 45 minutes.

you can take a bus from Cannes to Nice No 210 to the airport or bus 200 from bus station(gare routiere) , and then bus 94 to SPV.

better yet take bus 410 from Nice gare routiere straight to SPV

take a look at the official bus site for the region, i have done some on business from Cannes/Nice/Cannes trajects and they are very nice.price 6 euros.Check for your traject to SPV.

Walk, taxi or bus to Cannes station then get a train.
