Europe Express Introduces New Private Yacht Experiences Along the French Riviera

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

Lynwood, WA, March 3, 2026 — Europe Express is expanding its portfolio of elevated coastal experiences with a new collection of private yacht charters along the iconic French Riviera. Designed exclusively for Travel Advisors to book for their clients, these refined cruises blend Mediterranean glamour, cultural heritage, and immersive coastal beauty across some of France’s most celebrated seaside destinations. 

Departing from Nice, Monaco, Beaulieu-sur-Mer, and Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, the new offerings feature private sailings aboard sleek 37-foot Superhawk yachts and 52-foot Princess V50 yachts. Each itinerary combines attentive onboard service with carefully curated routes along the Côte d’Azur. 

A Riviera Collection Designed for Every Client

The expanded lineup includes: 

Sunset Champagne Cruise (2 Hours) 

An intimate evening sail along the Côte d’Azur, where guests toast with Champagne as the sun dips below the Mediterranean horizon. Ideal for romantic celebrations or milestone moments, this experience showcases golden light across dramatic capes, quiet coves, and elegant seaside villas.

Cannes & Lérins Islands Cruises (4 or 8 Hours) 

Morning, afternoon, and full-day options explore the protected Lérins Islands just off Cannes. Guests cruise past the famed Croisette before anchoring near the pine-covered shores of Lérins Islands. Highlights include views of Fort Royal—long associated with the Man in the Iron Mask—and the centuries-old abbey on Saint-Honorat Island. Time at anchor allows for swimming and snorkeling in crystalline lagoons, including access to the area’s renowned underwater eco-museum. 

Côte d’Azur to Saint-Tropez Full-Day Cruise (9 Hours) 

A signature westbound journey toward legendary Saint-Tropez, blending Provençal charm with Riviera glamour. Guests may explore the old harbor, browse boutiques, or arrange lunch at Pampelonne Beach before returning along the dramatic red cliffs of the Esterel coastline and protected marine reserves. 

Monaco & Cap Ferrat Coastal Cruises 

Select departures from Monaco trace the coastline past “The Rock,” the Prince’s Palace, and the Oceanographic Museum before gliding along Cap d’Ail, Èze Bay, and the villa-lined shores of Cap Ferrat. These scenic routes offer panoramic views of medieval hilltop villages and hidden coves accessible only by sea. 

Elevated Details, Seamless Planning

Each private charter includes a professional skipper, fuel, harbor fees, snorkeling equipment, mineral water, soft drinks, and either Champagne or rosé wine depending on the selected experience. Durations range from two to nine hours, allowing Travel Advisors to tailor itineraries around client pacing, celebrations, or pre- and post-cruise stays. 

With departures available from multiple Riviera ports, these yacht experiences integrate seamlessly into Custom FIT itineraries, Elevated Journeys, and luxury Mediterranean programs. 

Supporting Advisors with Distinctive Experiences

As demand grows for experiential and coastal luxury travel, Europe Express continues to expand its portfolio of curated, bookable moments that differentiate Travel Advisors in a competitive marketplace. These new Riviera yacht charters provide a compelling option for honeymooners, milestone travelers, multi-generational families, and clients seeking an exclusive perspective of southern France. 

Travel Advisors can request quotes and integrate these experiences into custom itineraries by contacting their Europe Express Europe Specialist or Business Development Manager.
