    Quality/Quantity - At minimum you want to visit the outside of the museum. If not just for the huge…read moreCannes sign; see pictures. Ambiance - The outside was beautiful. Personally, I feel you can skip the museum. See how few pictures there are on Yelp. There are more of the outside rather than the inside. Service - Self service. Price - 6.50 Euros; $7.50 US for the museum. Exterior = Free. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

    The museum is quite small, but well laid out and maintained. 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.

    2 of 2 Yelp reviews. 4.5 stars rounded up…read more Quality/Quantity - I think I might have enjoyed this visit more if we came NOT during the Cannes annual film festival. It would have been less relaxing. Must dos: Walk the beaches, main boulevard. Forville Market, Rue d'Antibes (shopping district), churches, casinos (bring your passport), old port, oh and of course the Cannes Film Festival, lol. Other things to do that we did not have time for: Lerins islands, Sainte Marguerite Island, any of the nearby islands (lol), painted walls, beaches, fortified monastery, etc. Ambiance - See above. Service - Overall good. Price - Expensive, but probably due to the Cannes Film Festival this week. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

    Cannes is a beautiful city locally served by Nice airport which is approx 40 minutes from the city…read more The city is high end no way around it. 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. The weather wasn't great as it was cool and rainy. September on the other hand is beautiful.
