Walk the red carpet and the hidden backstreets of Cannes guided by an actual working screenwriter — the only tour in town that decodes the Film Festival's insider world, its scandals, its legends, and the city's transformation from fishing village to global symbol of cinematic glamour.
What to expect
The tour begins at the waterfront and sweeps through the Boulevard de la Croisette, pausing at the Palais des Festivals where you ascend the legendary 24 red-carpeted steps for your own star moment. Your guide weaves in Festival folklore — the films that changed cinema, the stars who partied until dawn, the deals struck in hotel lobbies. Le Suquet Old Town follows: narrow medieval lanes, the Castre Museum (EUR 6 entry), and panoramic rooftop views over the bay. The whole experience feels like being granted a private audience with Cannes itself.
Good to know
The 1-hour group format (from EUR 10 pp) is excellent value; request a private session for a fully bespoke experience. The Palais steps are freely accessible outside festival period. Combine with a Croisette lunch or champagne at the InterContinental Carlton terrace for the full effect. Easy walking distance from the cruise pier.
