The hilltop village of Gourdon
Gourdon sits on the edge of a cliff, above the Loup gorges. On a clear day, the view reaches all the way to the sea.
Discover Gourdon
The village and its château
Gourdon is one of the Plus Beaux Villages de France. The château goes back to the 9th century, and its gardens are attributed to Le Nôtre. It is private: neither the château nor the gardens are open to visitors today. In the lanes, the church of Notre-Dame, once the château chapel, dates from the 12th century. A square bears the name of Queen Victoria, who came on 19 April 1891.
The Chemin du Paradis
The Chemin du Paradis is an old mule track. It climbs from Le Bar-sur-Loup to Gourdon, with a 500-metre ascent. Bring good shoes and water. Above the village, on the Cavillore plateau, are the traces of an old cave dwelling.
Our chauffeur services in Gourdon
Getting here and away
From Nice Airport, the road climbs to Gourdon in 1 h. The fare is agreed beforehand, from €145. The last few kilometres are full of bends. If you get car sick, let us know, and we drive gently. A group rides up together in the V-Class, up to seven passengers. For the trip down to the airport, tell us which flight you are on, and the departure time follows from it.
Up or down on foot
For the Chemin du Paradis, we drop you at the bottom, in Le Bar-sur-Loup, and pick you up at the top. Or the other way round, if you prefer to walk down. Your bags stay in the car during the walk, and you find them waiting at the end. In Gourdon, the car stops at the entrance, and the village is explored on foot.
A day in Gourdon
Arrive early, before the coaches, to enjoy the view in peace. Then head down for lunch in Grasse. After lunch, let our excursion service take you down the Loup gorges to Pont-du-Loup.

Your questions
Frequently asked questions
How much is a transfer between Nice Airport and Gourdon?
The price is fixed, VAT included and per vehicle: €160 in an E-Class (1 to 3 passengers), €190 in a V-Class (up to 7 passengers) and €220 in an S-Class (1 to 2 passengers). From 1 November to the end of February, the winter rate brings it down (€145 in an E-Class). The price is shown before you book and does not change afterwards.
How long does it take from Nice Airport to Gourdon?
About 1 h to reach Gourdon (46 km), as a guide only: depending on the season and the time of day, the journey may take longer. Your chauffeur tracks your flight: if it is late, they wait for you and the waiting time is free.
Can you drop us at the bottom of the Chemin du Paradis?
Yes. We leave you in Le Bar-sur-Loup and wait for you at the top, in Gourdon.
Can you visit the Château de Gourdon?
No, it is private and closed to the public. The village and its view are open to all.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. The price is shown before you book, including VAT and per vehicle, and it does not change afterwards.
Do you provide child seats?
Yes: child car seats and booster seats. Just mention it when you book.
Can I cancel my booking?
Yes. Up to 6 hours before pick-up, you can cancel free of charge or change your booking yourself, from your booking page (and during the hour after a booking made later than that). After that, contact us directly and we will do our very best.
How do I pay?
Directly on the website, by card, when you book: your booking is confirmed straight away. You can also pay in the car, by card (American Express accepted) or in cash.
What is the difference between a private chauffeur (VTC) and a taxi?
A VTC (private-hire chauffeur) is booked in advance and its price is fixed when you book. A taxi can be taken without booking, at a rank or in the street, and its fare usually depends on the meter. Riviera Private Driver is a VTC service.
