Like another review mentioned, the…read moreticket price (€6.50 as of January 2024) is well worth it to climb atop the tower for an amazing 360 panoramic view of Cannes, the city, port, ocean and Alps in the North. Since Cannes is much more devoid of tourists during off-peak season, and also not particularly known for its museums, it was lovely to enjoy the tower and most of the museum by myself on a brisk sunny weekday morning. Most of the exhibits center around ethnographic findings from French explorers in the 19th century, including articles and artifacts from Oceania, Africa, and the Mediterranean. Currently another exhibition towards the back few rooms showcases paintings following Nice through its development from fishing town to bustling port city. Note the tower requires climbing up a rather steep set of stairs to a small (maybe 8x8 foot area) on top which aside from the wall of the tower doesn't have any other railing or enclosure. So not recommended for little children unless they're strapped to you. Aside from stairs there's no other access so a) if you have a mobile disability it will not be accessible, b) the staircase is quite narrow inside and because the steps are wooden planks, you can see between each step, which may make it challenging for those with a fear of heights. Separately since part of the stairs run outside the tower, and the top of the tower is not covered, if there is inclement weather access to the top may be restricted.

Our first stop in Cannes was to hike up the hill to Musee de la Castre, or Castre Museum. The…read moremuseum is located in the ruins of an old medieval castle that belong to the monks of Lérins. It now hosts collections belong to the city of Cannes with primitive arts from the Himalayas, Tibet, the Artic, pre-Columbian America, Asia, Africa, and the Mediterranean. The museum has a medieval tower that offers a 360 degree view - if you want to climb 109 steps! In my humble opinion, it really is worth it, even for those of us who don't like heights! I think we paid about 12€ each to go into the museum, which I think, for the view alone, was worth it. The museum is pretty small, so I wouldn't allocate more than an hour to it - unless you're a really, really big history buff and can understand French. All the info was in French, so it made it a bit hard for us to really enjoy it as much as I would've another museum. Still, it was nice to walk around and take a look at the historical artifacts that they had on display.

We knew from our experience three years earlier to talk to the Latitudes Rewards concierge. This paid off as we were the first passengers off the boat that did not have a NCL shore excursion. The Port de Cannes itself is so convenient. We met Yann from Liven Up as we exited the terminal for our tour of Monaco, St. Paul de Vence and Cannes. On the way back, he dropped us off near the Red Carpet of the Cannes Film Festival. So interesting to watch as they set up for the festival that started the following day. Just an easy ten minute walk back to catch a tender to get back to the ship. The morning views from the tender were so beautiful.

The hotels are all very expensive, especially hotels situated across from the beach on boulevard de la Croisette. Hotel restaurants are all obscenely over priced. You can find better values in the old part of Cannes. The beaches are beautiful and free, many hotels setup bars and restaurants on the beach and include chair, towel and drink service. The shopping in the area is excellent if you are seeking the highest end brands from Europe, Louie Vuitton, Gucci, Chanel, Dior and Armani to name a few. I recommend checking the monthly weather reports for anticipated weather. We traveled in late October and it wasn't my choice as it was a business event.
