Discover the glamorous city of Cannes. See the handprints of famous celebrities at the Cannes Walk of Fame, stroll along the Croisette Boulevard, and visit the atmospheric district of Le Suquet.
Explore Cannes on a guided walking tour. Stroll along the Walk of Fame, see the Cannes Old Port, and visit the atmospheric district of Le Suquet. Admire the murals of the Cannes Cinema and the Church of Our Lady of Hope.
Start at the Cannes Walk of Fame, next to the Palace of Festivals, the primary venue for the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. The avenue is home to more than 300 handprints of world-renowned celebrities who have attended the film festival. Take iconic Cannes pictures while placing your hand next to your favorite celebrity handprint.
Continue to stroll under the shade of lush palm trees dotting the seafront Croisette Boulevard, where you can appreciate exciting window shopping and people-watching with numerous luxury hotels and boutiques frequented by high-profile guests as well as bustling arcade cafes and restaurants in Main Square on the right-handed side of the street.
The sunny boulevard runs along the picturesque Cannes Old Port. The peaceful quay where rest extravagant cruises and fishermen’s boats tells the founding anecdote of the city: In the 19th century, the famous Lord Brougham boarded here and fell in love with the fishing village of Cannes where he lived for the rest of his life working for its development.
The street leads to the atmospheric district Le Suquet, which welcomes you with a splendid mural on the wall of Cannes Cinema that captivates any on-lookers. The mesmerizing artwork features renowned cinematic figures. Use a pair of binoculars or take a photo and zoom it out to make sure you capture all the interesting details.
Go on to stroll along winding alleys running through the lively quarter, you will find more fantastic murals depicting classical moments of the cinema history, which make perfect backgrounds for creative souvenir photos.
Then, pace yourself and go up the highest part of the city where Cannes Castle prominently stands in serenity. The majestic fortress-looking castle was built by the monks of Lérins in the 17th century and served as the administrative center of the city until the 20th century.
Just a stone’s throw away is the 16th-century Church of Our Lady of Hope, where you can admire the picture-postcard vistas across the glittering city and the breathtaking Cannes beach from the breezy square in front of the tranquil Gothic church.
Finally, get a real feel of Cannes’ soul at its lively Forville Market. The 20th-century sheltered shopping venue replaced the old wooden market which has for centuries provided seasonal fruits and vegetables, fragrant herbs, aromatic spices, and fresh seafood caught in the Bay of Cannes. On Mondays, it transforms into a flea market overflowing with unique regional handcrafts and antiques that make perfect souvenirs for family and friends.
