Several reviews mention the sound of the engine as a major highlight, adding to the overall thrill.

The Photo Shoot

One of the best parts of this experience is the VIP photo session.

Several reviewers appreciated the photos, though one noted that the quality of photos taken with a phone could be hit or miss.

The Real Value: Price, Length, and What You Get

At $273 for the whole group (up to 3 people), this experience is priced in the premium range. For a short but intense 35-minute ride, the cost can seem high—yet, considering the exclusivity, the luxury car, and the professional photo package, many find it worthwhile. Reviews indicate that the driver’s friendliness and knowledge significantly add to the experience, making the brief ride more than just a quick drive.

Some guests expressed that the drive was longer and more enjoyable than they expected, with remarks about the beautiful route and the powerful sound of the Ferrari. Others mentioned that it’s a perfect treat for car enthusiasts or special occasions. However, one review pointed out that traffic can sometimes hamper the experience, and the driver’s phone photos did not meet all expectations—so if photography is a priority, consider bringing your own camera.

The Experience From the Traveler’s Perspective

Based on reviews, many guests rave about the friendly, knowledgeable guides, who make everyone feel comfortable and special. The breathtaking views along the coast are universally appreciated, with people noting how well the drive captures the glamour of Cannes.

What stands out is the sense of sharing a rare moment—whether it’s with a loved one or friends. The opportunity to strike a pose with the Ferrari in a luxury marina setting is a fun, memorable highlight. Still, some mention that the experience is quite brief, which might leave car lovers wanting more. If you’re craving a longer cruise or more driving, this might not fully satisfy you.

Pricing-wise, most feel it’s a bit of a splurge, but for those looking for a once-in-a-lifetime photo and speed experience, it’s a hit. The photo package adds sentimental value, especially if you’re eager to have professional shots to remember the day.

Who this Tour is Perfect For

This tour is ideal for luxury seekers, car enthusiasts, and anyone celebrating a special occasion. It’s also well-suited for travelers who want a short, impactful experience rather than a long drive or extensive tour. If you love scenic coastal drives and want a glimpse of the supercar lifestyle, this is a good pick.

Keep in mind, the duration is only 35 minutes, so if you’re after a full day of sightseeing, this should be combined with other activities. Also, since the experience involves a high-end car, it’s best for those comfortable with being in a luxury vehicle and who aren’t expecting a full driving tour.
