Taxi Cannes → Grasse
Cannes → Grasse transfer at €30–€40. 17 km, 20 min.
A taxi between Cannes and Grasse costs between €30 and €40 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 17 kilometres and a journey time of from 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes D6085, with no tolls. A van for up to seven passengers starts at €55. That price includes luggage, tolls and the driver's approach, and it does not move if traffic builds up: that is the difference with a metered ride, where every minute of waiting is charged and the applicable rate depends on the hour. On an unbooked ride, the amount follows the scale of the prefectoral order applying where the passenger is picked up, higher from seven in the evening to ten in the morning as well as on Sundays and public holidays. The driver tracks the flight or train number given at booking and shifts the pick-up at no extra cost if it is delayed, and cancelling remains free up to six hours before departure.

Grasse, perched at 350 metres altitude on the foothills of the Southern Alps, is universally recognised as the world capital of perfume. Its perfume-making expertise has been listed as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2018, and the great houses of Fragonard, Molinard and Galimard welcome visitors year-round. The 20-minute taxi ride from Cannes takes you from the glamorous seaside to the authentic Provençal hinterland, through hills planted with jasmine, May roses and tuberose that supply the perfumers of Grasse. The medieval old town offers a charming contrast to the Cannes bustle.
