With your private driver in Cassis, settle down in a comfortable vehicle
As a private driver specializing in the Cassis region, I am very happy to offer you my services for all your trips to or from Cassis.
Whether you want to make a one-way trip, spend a day in the region or stay a few days longer, my comfortable vehicles are at your disposal.
One thing is certain: the town of Cassis is full of wonders! Art galleries, ancient monuments, renowned restaurants, the harbour area, places for walking... it is one of the most beautiful of all French towns.
Would you like to know a little more, to take full advantage of your booking and not miss out on anything on the spot? Here is some useful information that I have put together on Cassis, to satisfy the curiosity of locals and tourists alike.
Cassis: a place that dates back to Cassius!
We don’t know whether the Roman tribune Cassius actually visited Cassis... but this magnificent harbour town certainly dates back to Antiquity!
Cassis is hence steeped in history, which has founded its reputation, and really took off thanks to fishing.
From fishing to wine growing: how Cassis took off
Little by little, the fundamentals of Cassis’s culture (and agriculture!) took shape. Ever since the 20th century, the vigour of the local economy has relied heavily on the region’s wineyards.
This is why, in a number of the packages I offer, I take pleasure in driving oenology enthusiasts to the Cassis wine festival, or other one-off events connected with the vinyards. It must be said that the region's white wine has acquired an excellent reputation.
Transfers for hotels or restaurants, and station and airport shuttles to or from Cassis
As a professional approved private driver, it’s essential for me to know Cassis and its region well. When you use my services, you are sure to book a vehicle with a private driver who will take you to your destination safely and directly.
My services are designed for both locals wishing to facilitate their daily travel and tourists who have come to enjoy Cassis and the surrounding area.
Cassis hotel transfers by private car
Of course, my private driver services include transfers to and from hotels.
The possibilities are numerous, and without restriction: I happily drive visitors, for example, to:
- the Jardin d’Emilie,
- the Best Western de La Rade,
- the Clos des Arômes,
- or the Hôtel de la Plage Mahogany.
Don’t hesitate to order a private vehicle on my website: I also drive visitors to and from hotels in the neighbouring area, for example:
- the Hostellerie La Crémaillère in Carnoux-en-Provence,
- the hotel La Rotonde in la Ciotat,
- the Ibis hotel in la Ciotat,
- the Mas de l’Etoile in Aubagne…
Discover the best restaurants in Cassis
The Bouches-du-Rhône department is well-known for its irresistible culinary specialties. In a warm seaside setting, gourmets will appreciate the excellent wines of the region (in moderation!) and the famous Mediterranean dishes that have been cooked in Provence for centuries.
You can order one of my comfortable vehicles to enjoy a typical dish at Chez Gilbert, a restaurant facing the sea, not far from the calanques. Fish lovers will be delighted.
There are other popular, top-quality restaurants awaiting you in Cassis: La Calanque also offers its share of local specialties, just like Le Grand Bleu, whose very name, evocative of the Mediterranean Sea, is enough to take you on a dream journey. Whether it’s for a business dinner or an outing with friends, you’re bound to find somewhere to have a great time!
Airport shuttles, or shuttles for the train station in Cassis or the surrounding area
Do you need a shuttle from Cassis to an airport or a transfer by private car to a train station in the region or neighbouring departments? I will always find the best route to get you there well in time.
I have already driven numerous clients to Marseille Provence Airport, or Toulon/Hyères Airport. And of course, I can also meet clients at the airport and take them wherever they want.
If you are travelling by train, I offer in particular transfers to (or from) Cassis station and Aubagne station or, further afield, Marseille-Saint-Charles station and Toulon station.
Whether you are travelling for business or for pleasure, it’s very pleasant to let yourself be guided. If you have any questions about the length of a trip or the best itinerary, don’t hesitate to contact me by telephone. Your order can then be tailor-made.
