A private transfer from Nice airport to Saint-Tropez is a convenient way to reach the resort. Prices start at 170€ for an Economy class car for 4 pax. Travel time is typically 1,5 to 2,5 hours (depending on traffic). The route is 106 km long and the car travels along the A8 motorway. The price includes: toll roads, fuel and parking; 1-hour airport wait; Wi-Fi, child seat and bottled water.
The driver will meet you with a sign at the airport exit from the arrivals area and take you directly to your hotel or villa.

This transfer service from Nice to St Tropez is ideal for those who prefer to travel along the French Riviera in comfort and safety, without wasting time.
Watch how our private transfer from Nice Airport to Saint-Tropez works, including the meeting process, vehicles and the route along the French Riviera.
To travel from Nice Airport to Saint-Tropez, you need to cover approximately 106 km. Most of the route follows the toll A8 motorway, passing Antibes, Cannes, and Fréjus. After around 70 km near Le Muy, you leave the motorway and continue toward the coast on the D25 road. This is a standard regional road, mostly with one lane in each direction, with only a few passing sections. After about 46 km, you reach Sainte-Maxime, and from there it is another 15 km to Saint-Tropez along the coastal road.
The journey from Nice to Saint-Tropez usually takes around 1.5 hours. However, during summer, weekends, or especially in August, travel time can increase to around 2.5–3 hours. Seasonal traffic is particularly heavy between Sainte-Maxime and Saint-Tropez, where the road is narrow and congestion is common.
Watch this detailed route video from Nice to Saint-Tropez, including the main roads, turns, and towns you pass along the way by private car transfer.
There is an alternative detour route if you are in a hurry or need to reach the airport as quickly as possible. You can drive through Grimaud, then turn left onto the D244 and continue onto the D44, passing through the village of Le Plan-de-la-Tour. This detour takes around 30 minutes and covers approximately 20 km along a winding road. In heavy summer traffic, it can help you save 1 to 1.5 hours. However, if you are prone to motion sickness, this part of the journey may feel uncomfortable.
If you want to get to Saint-Tropez faster, you will of course need to take the autobahn rather than along the coast through the cities. This autobahn is toll. You will need to pay the fare twice.
1-st payment point is located near Antibes (Péage d'Antibes), 15 km from Nice airport. For a passenger car you need to pay 3 euros 40 cents.
2-nd payment point is located at the exit from the autobahn, near the town of Le Muy (71 km from Nice). Here you will pay 5 euros 70 cents (for a passenger car).
Total for toll roads, one way from Nice to Saint-Tropez you will pay 3.40 + 5.70 = 9.10 euros.
The second item of travel expenses is the cost of fuel (gasoline or diesel). The distance from Nice to Saint-Pope is about 105 km. Fuel consumption will be approximately 10-12 liters, taking into account driving in traffic jams (also depends on driving style and engine size). You will spend approximately 12 * 2 = 24 euros on fuel.
Thus, the total cost of travel from Nice to Saint-Tropez (one way) is about 35 euros for a passenger car. By minibus it will cost more than 50-60 euros.

Hmany Q (Feb 2026)
I had an excellent experience with ByCar and couldn’t be more satisfied with their service. Their response time was impressively fast, communication was clear and professional, and the pricing was very reasonable compared to other companies. The drivers were extremely friendly, punctual, and made the journey comfortable from start to finish. What I appreciated most is the flexibility in payment being able to pay after the ride is completed rather than paying the full amount in advance adds a great sense of trust and peace of mind. Overall, ByCar offers reliable service, affordable prices, and outstanding customer care. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a smooth, stress-free private transfer across Europe and will definitely be using their service again.

The trip of my dream Review of Bycar Transfers Reviewed 5 days ago My husband and I have long wanted to see Saint-Tropez.
Recently I managed to make my plan come true. We went there for a day. Since we went not in the high season,
the road one way took only 1 hour and 20 minutes. In August they say it takes about 3 hours because of traffic jams.
We were taken by a ByCar driver in a Tesla S. A very comfortable and beautiful car, the driver was polite and experienced.
We also really liked the price for the trip.

Alex Houmi (March 2025)
We went to Saint-Tropez from Nice. We were looking for the best options for getting there.
We didn't like the options with public transport: too long and complicated with transfers. The train doesn't go to Saint-Tropez.
We ordered an individual transfer on the Bycar website. The prices are very good.
We got there by Santa Fe for 170 euros. The driver picked us up in the morning from the hotel in Nice and drove us to Saint-Tropez in 1.5 hours.
He drove calmly, very friendly, his name is Alex. If you go to Nice, be sure to contact them

A taxi from Nice airport to Saint-Tropez is a fairly convenient way to get to the resort (compared to a bus or train). You can take a taxi at Terminal 1 opposite exit A1 or at Terminal 2 at exit A3. You get to Saint-Tropez in 1.5 - 2 hours (if there are no big traffic jams) along the toll road A8 and the road D25 (the total length is about 105 km). The cost of such a trip according to the taximeter is quite high from 280 to 450 euros (the price depends on many factors and unfortunately you cannot determine it in advance). The conditions of travel by taxi are better than by train or bus, but are much inferior to the comfort of an individual transfer.
The cost of a trip to Saint-Tropez varies depending on many factors, so you will only find out how much you have to pay at the end of the journey, when you arrive at your hotel. To help you understand the intricacies of this issue, we have listed price options and additional payment conditions below.
Let's look at 2 typical cases of a taxi ride to Saint-Tropez from Nice airport, in order to roughly understand how much you can pay in one case or another:
A. Arrival in Nice at 12:40, 3 passengers with 4 suitcases, travel time 2.5 hours (including 1 hour waiting in traffic jams).
Price = 280+8+2+40+10 = 340€
B. Arrival in Nice at 18:15, 4 passengers with 5 suitcases, travel time 3 hours (including 1.5 hours waiting in traffic jams).
Price = 340+8+4+60+10 =422€
At first glance, a taxi is a great way to travel to Saint-Tropez, but in addition to the obvious advantages, you should know all the sides of this method:
Saint Tropez is one of the most popular summer resorts in the world. It is known for its stunning parties in clubs, beaches and villas. The most glamorous parties 24 hours a day.
Saint Tropez is located approximately halfway between the airports of Nice and Marseille. You can get there in different ways, but the most convenient and practical way is by car: take a taxi at the airport or book a private transfer in advance.

Our company has been transporting tourists to Saint-Tropez from Nice airport for more than 12 years. You can order a car of any class from us, both for a large group of passengers and for 1-2 people.
The cost of our services is often lower than that of competitors, and transfers are performed exclusively by experienced drivers using cars in excellent condition.

If you have planned your holiday in Saint-Tropez, the easiest, most convenient and fastest way to get there is from Nice airport. How to do it? There are quite a few options: taxi, rented car, bus, train, ferry and even helicopter, as well as their combinations. And, of course, an individual transfer, the benefits of which we will tell you further.
Transfer or taxi:
When choosing between ordering a taxi and a transfer, it is important to keep in mind that a taxi is not suitable for all travelers. And that's why. First of all, the price you'll pay at the end of your trip isn't always transparent. It may include additional payments that you may not find out about right away. For example, for the number of passengers, large luggage, provision of a child seat or booster seat, time of day (a night or evening trip will be more expensive), and so on. The price of the transfer is known at the time of booking and remains unchanged subsequently. Thus, the approximate cost of a taxi from Nice airport to Saint-Tropez starts from 250 €, while the cost of a transfer starts from 175 €. Most taxi cars are passenger cars, which means they can accommodate a limited number of passengers and luggage. Also, taxi drivers mainly use Economy and Comfort class cars, so if you want to go Business or Premium class, it’s better not to count on a taxi. When ordering a transfer, the car is selected according to your parameters, and you can be sure of comfortable accommodation.
Bus or transfer:
There is no direct bus service between Nice and Saint-Tropez. If you choose this type of transport, you will have to change trains in Saint-Raphael. You can get to this city on route No. 90, which runs every 2-2.5 hours, and from there to Saint-Tropez - on route No. 876, which departs every hour. The cost of the trip will be about 20 €, and the duration without waiting periods for transfers will be almost 3 hours.
Train or transfer:
There is no railway to Saint-Tropez. Trains can only travel from Nice to Saint-Raphael, and then you will have to change the mode of transport. So, regional trains with 1st and 2nd class carriages depart from Saint-Augustine station approximately once an hour. The cost of a 1st class ticket is 20.3€, 2nd class is 13.5€. Travel time is just under 3 hours. The station can be reached on foot from the airport building. From Saint-Raphael you can change buses, ferry or take a taxi.
Ferry or transfer:
There are no direct ferry lines from Nice, but if you want to travel by this type of transport, the nearest departure point is Golfe Juan, which can be reached by regional train from Saint-Augustine station. The ferry travels to Saint-Tropez only once a day and departs at 09:20. From May 16 to June 30 and from September 1 to September 30, 2024, ferry service operates on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. The rest of the time - from July 1 to August 31 - daily. The cost of the trip for an adult is 69 €, for a child under 10 years old - 54 €, children under 4 years old - free. Travel time is 2.5 hours. There is also a ferry service from Saint-Raphael, which can be reached by both train and bus. The ferry operates every day from June 1 to November 3. In the high season, flights depart 6 times a day from 08:00 to 18:00, and in the low season - twice: at 09:00 and at 14:30. A ticket for an adult costs 20 €, for a child under 9 years old - 12 €, for children under 1 year of age the trip is free. Travel duration is 2-3 hours.
Helicopter or transfer:
A helicopter is a fast and very expensive form of transport. There is no flight schedule as such; they must be agreed upon in advance. Renting a helicopter, according to the website (blade.com), depends on its model and starts from 2100 €. Price is only one of the features of this type of transport. Helicopters are dependent on weather conditions and the flight is canceled as soon as they are unfavorable. In addition, the helicopter's capacity is low and there are strict restrictions on the amount of luggage. And a helicopter, like other types of public transport, will not be able to take you directly to your hotel (except in rare cases when your vacation spot has its own helipad).
Our driver will meet you in the arrivals area with a name sign, so you can easily find him. In any case, we inform you of the driver’s WhatsApp contact in advance so that you can be in touch with him in any situation. Our advice is to immediately connect to the free wi-fi network upon arrival, which is available at Nice airport, and inform the driver that everything is on schedule and whether you have received your luggage.
If something doesn’t go according to plan and the flight, for example, is delayed, the driver will track this delay and adjust the arrival time. It is for this reason that when booking a transfer, you must provide us with complete flight details.
If the flight delay is prolonged and the driver cannot pick you up due to other transfers, you may be provided with another free car. In this case, the class of the car may change.
The transfer price includes an hour wait after landing flight. Longer waits, as well as waits when stopping at shops and restaurants on the way to Saint-Tropez, are paid separately and range from 50 € to 90 € per hour, depending on the class of car. If you know that you will be delayed at the airport, please notify us and the driver about this in advance (preferably at least 24 hours in advance) so that the driver can come pick you up at another specified time and you can avoid additional costs.
It is important to us that the trip for passengers is comfortable, and that luggage is fully accommodated and does not create any disturbances. That is why, when ordering a transfer, we specify the list of luggage, its type and size. This directly determines the type of car that is ideal for you.
Suitcases are the luggage that is almost always taken on a trip. We will definitely ask you to indicate the dimensions of each of them, according to the following parameters:
Size S: height 48-53 cm; width 32-36 cm; thickness 20-24 cm Size M: height 58-63 cm; width 37-41 cm; thickness 23-27 cm Size L: height 65-70 cm; width 42-47 cm; thickness 26-30 cm Size XL: height 72-80 cm; width 48-54 cm; thickness 29-33 cm
In addition to suitcases, you may have other luggage: bags, packages, backpacks, strollers, sports equipment, and so on. We urge you to indicate everything you are taking with you to avoid not only discomfort during the trip, but also the risk of ordering a separate taxi for your luggage. This will cost you significantly more than ordering a transfer of the appropriate size. When transporting pets, remember that they must be in special carriers, the size of which must also be communicated to us when booking the car.
When deciding on the period of your stay in Saint-Tropez, please take these features into account and remember the dates and time periods indicated above.
The price and quality of the trip depends entirely on the chosen car. And this, in turn, depends on your personal parameters: the number of passengers, the number and size of suitcases, the presence of other luggage, as well as your preferences for comfort and class of car.
Car. A much more spacious type of car. They are represented by such models as Renault Trafic, Ford Tourneo, Hyundai H1, Mercedes V class. They have 7 or 8 seats and fairly large luggage compartments that can accommodate up to 10 suitcases of various sizes, as well as hand luggage and, in some cases, sports equipment.
Minibus. Based on body type, passenger cars are divided into two types: sedan and SUV. Examples of such cars: Ford Mondeo, Volkswagen Jetta, Kia SanraFe, Renault Megan, Mercedes E and S-class. This is the smallest class of cars in terms of capacity, designed to transport up to three, maximum four passengers with minimal luggage - 3 M or L size suitcases and a small amount of hand luggage.
Bus. The largest type of car in terms of capacity. Designed to transport large groups of passengers (up to 20 people). A typical representative is the Mercedes Sprinter, the luggage compartment of which can accommodate up to 18 suitcases of various sizes, hand luggage and sports equipment. There are also buses with 40-50 passenger seats, but using them is not always convenient due to their low maneuverability. These are best used for long trips, and for short transfers and driving along the narrow streets of small towns it is better to book several minibuses.
We would like to once again draw your attention to the fact that the car is selected based on the parameters of each individual transfer.
Its comfort and cost directly depend on the class of the car. The class itself is determined by the wishes of the passengers.
Economy class. The name speaks for itself. This is the class of cars with the lowest price and minimum level of comfort. The interior materials are very basic, and the cabin itself is not very roomy. Examples of cars of this class: cars - Volkswagen Golf or Kia Rio, minibuses - Fiat Scudо or Hyundai H1.
Comfort class. This class is slightly more expensive than economy class due to a more comfortable and spacious interior. The decoration is made of more pleasant materials. Comfort class passenger cars are, for example, Volkswagen Passat or Toyota Camry. Minibuses - Renault Trafic or Volkswagen Multivan.
Business Class. An even higher-priced and comfortable class of cars with a large interior and expensive finishes. An example of a passenger car is a Mercedes E-class, a minibus is a Mercedes Vito.
Premium class. For the most demanding clients who love maximum comfort and convenience even in the smallest details. The interiors of cars of this class are made of the most modern and expensive materials and are equipped with functionality that makes the trip even more enjoyable. An example of a passenger car is a Mercedes S-class, a minibus is a Mercedes V-class.
In winter our clients prefer to go to ski resorts in the French Alps. Transfer from Geneva airport to Courchevel costs 300 - 450 euro, depending on the chosen car.

The famous Saint Tropez is located in the south of France on the seashore. The nearest major international airports are in Nice and Marseille. Most often, tourists travel from Nice, because there are more flights, the road is closer and the route is cheaper.
From Nice airport - 106 km and travel time about 1.5 hours
From Marseille airport - 144 km, travel time from 2 hours
Saint-Tropez is a small picturesque town in the south-east of France in the Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur region. This is one of the most magnificent resorts on the French Riviera, which has become widely known thanks to numerous films (for example, the action of the adventures of the gendarme with Louis de Funes and "The Prick of the Umbrella" with Pierre Richard, as well as the film "And God Created Woman" with Brigitte Bardot takes place here) . Saint-Tropez is one of the most glamorous places on the Cote d'Azur.

This fashionable resort is known for its excellent beaches and clear sea, picturesque houses and narrow cobbled streets of the old town, as well as charming green courtyards and cozy squares. It's hard to believe that until the 19th century, Saint-Tropez was just a modest fishing village. But thanks to artists and cinema, the city has become a legendary holiday destination.
The largest ski area in the world is also located in the French Alps, in the Savoie department, not far from the Moutiers railway station, partly in the Vanoise National Park. Three Valleys is 600 kilometers of interconnected ski slopes, about 200 ski lifts and 120 kilometers of cross-country skiing trails. The Les Trois-Vallee ski area connects the valleys of Les Alues (the resorts of Meribel, Brides-les-Bains), Saint-Bon (the towns of Courchevel, La Tania) and Belleville (the ski resorts of Val Thorens, Les Menuires, Saint-Martin-de -Belleville).
The ski area is extended into the "fourth" Maurienne valley, adjacent to Val Thorens and connected by a lift to Aurel. The geographical position of the Three Valleys more than 60 years ago was not chosen by chance. The location was ideal for the creation of an interconnected ski area and the development of winter sports: several glaciers (Péclet, Du Borgne, Boucher), three parallel valleys, mountain passes connecting them, 85% of the area is at an altitude of more than 1800 meters, providing guaranteed snow from the start December until the end of April.
It is difficult to get to Saint-Tropez by public transport: this town is located away from the main bus and railway routes, so you have to make transfers or take a taxi (from Nice airport to Saint-Tropez a taxi will cost about 200-350 euro).

For getting to Saint-Tropez from Nice Airport you should change buses 1-2 times. The easiest option is to take the number 3003 bus to Saint-Raphael (1.5 hours on the way) and then the 7601 bus from Saint-Raphael to Saint-Tropez (approximately another 1.5 hours on the way).Remember that the bus schedule (here it is the main transport) varies greatly depending on the season and day of the week! Check carefully on the official websites.

The easiest way to get to Saint-Tropez is by ferry, which departs from many cities of the Cote d'Azur: Cannes, Golfe-Juan, Nice, etc. For example, you can arrive from Cannes by morning boat and return by evening. You will have 4 - 5 hours to walk around Saint-Tropez and see all its sights. There is a ferry from Saint-Tropez to Sainte-Maxime opposite, which runs regularly during the summer.

The nearest railway station to Saint-Tropez is located in the neighboring resort St-Raphaël. You can get from Saint-Raphael to Saint-Tropez either by boat or by bus. The bus station is located right next to the train station, at platform 1. But train traffic and bus schedules are not particularly coordinated, so you may have to wait. In the old port of Saint-Raphaël you can take a boat from Gare Maritime de St-Raphaël, rue Pierre-Auble to Saint-Tropez (about 50 minutes on the way) 4-5 times a day from April to October. Between 10 and 15 buses a day leave from the Gare Routière bus station in Saint-Raphael to Saint-Tropez (line 7601, Varlib company). The journey takes from 1:30 to 2:15 h, depending on the bus and traffic.

If you arrive by car, then be aware that parking in Saint-Tropez is pretty bad, especially in summer. You can park at Parking des Lices, under the place des Lices; entrance from avenue Paul-Roussel. Designed for 471 cars, this parking is free for the first 30 minutes, 45 minutes cost 2.50 €, 1 hour - 3.50 €, every next 15 minutes - 0.50 €, 24 hours - 44.00 €. Despite the price, many owners of expensive cars prefer this parking lot, as it is the best guarded. The second car park is Parking du Nouveau Port, avenue Charles de Gaulle, located by the sea (right next to the Saint-Tropez bus station).
The fastest and most convenient way to travel from Nice Airport to Saint-Tropez is by car. Whether you choose a private transfer, taxi, or rental car, the journey typically takes about 1.5 hours via the A8 motorway, depending on traffic conditions. During peak tourist seasons, especially in summer, travel times may increase due to congestion, particularly on the coastal roads near Saint-Tropez.
There is no direct train connection between Nice and Saint-Tropez. The nearest train station is in Saint-Raphaël, which can be reached by regional trains from Nice (approximately 1 hour). From Saint-Raphaël, you can continue your journey to Saint-Tropez by bus, taxi, or private transfer, adding another 30-60 minutes to your trip.
The cost of a taxi from Nice Airport to Saint-Tropez varies depending on factors such as traffic, luggage, and time of day. On average, the fare ranges from 250 to 350 euros. Booking a private transfer in advance is often more cost-effective, with prices starting at around 180-200 euros for up to 4 passengers.
Bus: The cheapest way to get to Saint-Tropez from Nice Airport is by bus. You can take bus route No. 90 to Saint-Raphaël (approximately 1 hour), then transfer to bus route No. 876 to Saint-Tropez (another 30-60 minutes).
