A complete guide for everything you need to experience a great Long Weekend in Cannes, one of the jewels of the French Riviera. You don't have to go to Cannes in May during the Film Festival (it's impossible to get rooms anyway). Cannes is as good in winter as it is in summer. (Even Cary Grant and Grace Kelly enjoyed it off season.)
"We couldn't believe the beauty of this place, especially as seen from the hill above Cannes looking down from an 11th Century tower of an old medieval castle, something we never would have thought to see without reading it in this guide." ---Ashley H., Fairfield
"We enjoyed visiting the little restaurants we found in this guide that took us to the side streets—away from tourists—we got to see how the locals live." ---Giselle M., Dover
You'll save a lot of time using this concise guide.
