Toulon airport to Cannes

I occasionally get questions about reaching Cannes from Toulon airport. I'm not sure what the advantage is, as only about six cities are serviced: Paris, London, Rome, Brest, Brussels and Rotterdam. However, as it is a regional airport, you can get there later than other airports to check in.

Apart from that, you can reach Cannes from there using the same principles as other Riviera cities: the train. Toulon is on the main TGV line that includes Marseilles and Cannes, which means it can also be reached from Paris and Brussels (changing in Paris).

There is no direct train connection at the airport. But buses leave for the city every 20 minutes or so for a price of about €10 (summer 2008). Airlines flying there include Air France, AirOne, Ryanair, Transavia and Jetairfly. Alternatively, it's about an hour's drive to Cannes along the main A57 motorway.

For more information, visit the Toulon airport website in French.

    Bienvenue!

    Cannes. Magic. Excitement. Sunshine.

    Yes, you can have all that if you come prepared! But you could also get expensive taxis, hotels at an hour's drive, sore feet and culture shock. Stick around for info and tips from the people that know Cannes well. And enjoy Midem, MIPIM, MIPCOM and the Cannes Film Festival.
