Little train ride in Cannes is so delightful!
#traveldiaries Riding the little trains in Cannes was such a delightful experience! As I hopped aboard, I was immediately charmed by the open-air carriages and the relaxed pace. The train wound its way through the scenic streets, offering incredible views of the Mediterranean coastline. We passed by the iconic Palais des Festivals, where the Cannes Film Festival takes place, and then made our way up to Le Suquet, the historic old town. The narrow, cobblestone streets and panoramic views from the hill were simply breathtaking.
I loved how the audio guide shared interesting stories about Cannes’ history and landmarks along the way. It was the perfect way to explore the city without having to walk long distances, especially on a warm day. Whether you're with family or just wanting a leisurely tour, these little trains make discovering the beauty and elegance of Cannes an absolute joy.

Le Suquet is Cannes’ old town quarter and the original site of the city. The largest part of le Suquet is pedestrianised so you can enjoy the small shops, colourful buildings and narrow streets.
There are lots of restaurants and cafes around, so just pick your spot and enjoy the atmosphere of the city.
With its medieval buildings and a castle on top of the hill, it offers an incredible contrast to the glamor of the modern part of the city.
Cannes itself isn’t a large city and so it may feel a day can be enough to explore this movie star city. Below we suggest a few things worth considering for your trip there.
