Helicopter.
Nice airport to the Saint-Tropez peninsula by helicopter is twelve minutes flying time. By road in August it's two hours. The math is worth knowing.
We coordinate with the helicopter operators flying the Côte d'Azur: Hélicoptères de France, Monacair, Hélisecurité, Azur Hélicoptère. The right operator for the trip depends on the date, the weight allowance, and which helipad you're going to.
Common routes: Nice to Grimaud helipad (La Mole) for arrivals; Saint-Tropez to Monaco for a day trip; sightseeing loop over the Estérel and the Îles de Lérins. Helipads we use most: La Mole, Monaco Fontvieille, Cannes-Mandelieu.
Lead time: 24 hours typical, 4 hours with operator availability, longer in peak August. Weight allowance for luggage is the constraint people forget. Tell us how many bags before you confirm. Mistral grounds the flight; we plan a chauffeured backup for every booked leg. Sur devis.

- Luggage allowance?
- Depends on the helicopter. Typical: 10kg per passenger for a four-seat machine, 15 to 20kg for a six or eight-seat machine. Tell us the bag count and we'll match the airframe.
- If the weather grounds the flight?
- We plan a chauffeured V-Class backup for every booked leg, paid only if it runs. You won't be stranded in Nice with luggage.
