Cannes Tours of the City
A guided two-hour walking tour departs every Wednesday at 1430 from the Tourist Information Office (tel: (04) 9339 2453). This takes in the Old Town (Suquet), the old port, the rue d'Antibes and La Croisette. The most rewarding nature trails are to be found on the Lérins Islands. In the summer season the Office National des Forêts (website: www.onf.fr), offers guided tours to the Il Ste Marguerite. Outside of these times, visitors can follow the signposted botanical trail.
Train Tours
Les Petit Train du Cinema (tel: (06) 2261 2576; website: www.cannes-petit-train.com) depart regularly from the tourist office. One heads for Le Suquet (Old Town), the other for La Croisette. Both trips last 40 minutes and include a multilingual commentary. Private hire is also available.
Self-drive Tours
Clearly signposted information points along the Route Napoléon recount the progress of Napoleon after his escape from the Isle of Elba. The Action Nationale des Elus pour la Route Napoléon (website: www.route-napoleon.com) provides further information.
