Those flying into Nice and looking for a luxury SUV ready for anything will find the Mercedes-AMG G63 the ideal choice: spacious luggage space, comfort for long journeys, and a presence that stands out on the Promenade des Anglais. Pickup directly from the airport terminals, with a quick handover so you can head straight to Cannes, Saint-Tropez, or Monte Carlo.
Nice Côte d'Azur Airport has two terminals and is located near the city center, right on the seafront. Picking up your Mercedes-AMG G63 here allows you to start your stay without any hassle: land, collect your luggage, and find the car waiting for you at the agreed-upon spot, right next to your flight's terminal.
On the French Riviera, the G63 is a distinctive choice. It has a recognizable presence in front of the hotels in Monaco and Cannes, offers comfort during transfers, and its all-wheel drive is useful on the hilly roads leading to the villas and villages of the hinterland.
During the summer months, the airport exit and the Nice seafront are often busy, especially on Friday evenings and Saturdays. If your hotel is nearby, the drive is short; if you're going further, set your navigation system before leaving and take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the car, which is tall and wide compared to a sedan.
Those arriving on an intercontinental flight can also choose to have the G63 delivered the next day, directly to their hotel or villa. The first transfer is by taxi, and the car arrives when you're rested and ready to drive.
Three parallel roads run between Nice and Monaco , at different heights above the sea: the Basse Corniche along the coast, the Moyenne Corniche halfway up the hill, and the Grande Corniche higher up. The drive from the airport to Monaco takes about 30-40 minutes, but each road offers a different landscape.
The Moyenne Corniche passes near Èze, the village perched above the sea, where it's worth stopping for a stroll. The Grande Corniche is quieter and more scenic, suitable for those with time. The Basse Corniche passes through Villefranche-sur-Mer and Beaulieu, but in summer it's often slow. A good plan is to go to Monaco on one route and return on the other, to see the coast from two perspectives.
From the airport, Antibes is about 20-30 minutes away, and Cannes about 30-45 minutes. Along the way, you can detour to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, the artists' village, or head up to Grasse, known for its historic perfumeries. These are the routes where the G63 shines: hilly roads, curves, and stops in small squares.
Those with a full day can head to the Verdon Gorges, in the Provence hinterland , about two and a half hours away. It's a long trip, but the canyon and lake scenery are worth the early morning departure.
In summer, the coastal roads are very busy, especially in the late afternoon. Street parking is limited in the centers of Nice, Cannes, and Monaco; it's best to use covered parking lots or hotel parking. Before entering older garages, check the height limit posted at the entrance: the G63 is a tall car.
Traffic is even heavier in May, the month of the Cannes Film Festival, and during the Monaco Grand Prix, between late May and early June. During those days, it's a good idea to plan your travels ahead and choose your travel times carefully.
There's no need to return the G63 to the airport. We can pick it up at your hotel, villa, port, or another city, even in Italy. For example, you could arrive in Nice and end your trip in Saint-Tropez, Monaco, or Milan. Please specify your route when requesting a quote.
To experience the Riviera with the wind in your hair, an open-top car like the Ferrari F8 Spider , the Ferrari Roma Spider , or the Lamborghini Huracán Evo Spyder is a different choice than an SUV. Those traveling as a family with lots of luggage might want to consider the seven-seater Land Rover Defender 110. All the sporty options are on the supercars page.
Which terminal will you drop off the G63 at? The one for your flight. Let us know your flight number and arrival time, and we'll arrange a meeting point.

Can I return the car to another location? Yes, we can collect it from a hotel, villa, or another city, even in another country.
Is the G63 suitable for narrow village streets? Yes, but it's a wide car: in historic centers, it's best to park at the entrance to the town and continue on foot.
Can I get from Nice to Saint-Tropez in the G63? Yes. Allow about an hour and a half to two hours in the summer, as the access road to Saint-Tropez is often congested. Leave early if you can.
