Private transfers to the Italian Riviera from Nice

Just across the French border, the Ligurian coast unfolds from Ventimiglia and its Friday market to Sanremo, Bordighera, the medieval hill village of Dolceacqua, and further on to Genoa, Portofino, Santa Margherita and the Cinque Terre. Mira Azur drives you there directly from Nice, Monaco or the airport in a comfortable Mercedes with a chauffeur who knows the coastal SS1 and the A10 motorway alternative, and who handles every border formality along the way. Journey times range from about 50 minutes (Ventimiglia) to 3 hours 30 minutes (Cinque Terre).

What is included in your Italian Riviera transfer

Every fare covers a professional English-speaking chauffeur, a late-model Mercedes, French and Italian motorway tolls, meet-and-greet at Nice Airport with 60 minutes free waiting, bottled water and Wi-Fi on request. Full-day hire keeps the car with you between stops — the Ventimiglia market, a seafront lunch in Bordighera, the casino in Sanremo, then a stroll through Dolceacqua. No Swiss vignette is needed on this route. Optional add-ons: child seats, extended waiting, a return leg the same day and an evening pick-up.
