The old town of Grasse
In Grasse, everything revolves around perfume. Flowers still grow on the edge of town, and the major perfume houses open their workshops to visitors.
Discover Grasse
The perfume houses
The guided tour is free at Fragonard and at Galimard. You can also make your own perfume in a workshop, at Molinard for example, if you book ahead. To understand the craft, start at the International Perfume Museum, on the edge of the old town. This know-how, from growing the flowers to composing the scent, has been on UNESCO's intangible heritage list since 2018.
The old town
Sloping lanes climb to Place aux Aires and its fountain of 1821. Higher up, the cathedral of Notre-Dame-du-Puy houses three paintings by Rubens and one by Fragonard. Founded in 1926, the perfume house is named after the painter, who was born here in 1732, the son of a glove maker and perfumer. From the terraces of the old town, you see the sea on a clear day.
Our chauffeur services in Grasse
Getting here and leaving
To reach Grasse from Nice Airport, we leave the A8 at exit 42 and take the road up into town. The fare is fixed, from €125, and the drive is about 45 minutes. At rush hour, allow some extra time, as this road backs up. By train, the TGV stops at Cannes, thirty-five minutes away by car, and we pick you up at the station.
At the perfumers
Our clients often stop at a perfume house during a day inland. We drop you outside Fragonard's historic factory, on the boulevard, at the entrance to the old town. Fragonard has a second address, the Usine des Fleurs, on the Cannes road. Tell us which one when you book. Allow half an hour for a guided tour, an hour or more for a workshop.
A day in Grasse
A perfume house first, then the old town on foot. Lunch is in Mougins, twenty minutes away. In the afternoon, we head up to Gourdon or come back via Saint-Paul-de-Vence. In May for the rose, from August to October for jasmine, nearby estates show visitors round their fields, if you book ahead. After the perfume house, the car stays with you on a day tour inland.

Your questions
Frequently asked questions
How much is a transfer between Nice Airport and Grasse?
The price is fixed, VAT included and per vehicle: €140 in an E-Class (1 to 3 passengers), €170 in a V-Class (up to 7 passengers) and €200 in an S-Class (1 to 2 passengers). From 1 November to the end of February, the winter rate brings it down (€125 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 Grasse?
About 45 minutes to reach Grasse (39 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 the chauffeur wait while we visit a perfume house?
Yes. Book hourly hire rather than a transfer. The chauffeur stays with you during the visit, then takes you on to your next stop.
When can we see the flowers in Grasse?
The centifolia rose is picked in May, around Expo Rose. Jasmine flowers from August to October, and its festival is on the first weekend of August.
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.
