Early departure from Quai Jean Moulin in Lyon. After a few hours' drive, you'll arrive in mythical Saint-Tropez. You'll have the afternoon to stroll around the port, admire the yachts, discover the old town or just relax on the beach. With its picturesque streets and jet-set atmosphere, it's a real postcard of the South.

Back on the road to Cannes. Check into your hotel in the city center, a stone's throw from the Croisette. You'll be able to relax a little before the Erasmus evening in a Cannes club, to experience the night like the stars of the Festival. A festive atmosphere is guaranteed in one of the most glamorous spots on the Côte d'Azur.

Quiet wake-up call and hotel check-out. After some free time, you're off to Nice for another day of discoveries. Beaches, Promenade des Anglais, colorful Old Nice, flower market, view from the castle... everyone can explore the city at their own pace. Enjoy the terraces and artisanal ice creams before heading back to Lyon in the late afternoon.

Unforgettable destinations!

Saint-Tropez
Cannes
Nice

This small port has become a symbol of the jet-set, offering you a mythical backdrop of yachts, luxury boutiques, Provencal lanes and beaches.

Did you know? Saint-Tropez was a simple fishing village before it was discovered by Brigitte Bardot in the 1950s.

Between red carpet and sandy beach, Cannes blends elegance with a relaxed atmosphere. Stroll along the Croisette or in the Suquet district.

Did you know? The Cannes Film Festival has been held here since 1946, and every spring the city welcomes the world's biggest stars.

The capital of the Côte d'Azur, Nice has a seductive Mediterranean atmosphere. Its historic center and seafront promenade make it a must-see.

Did you know? The Promenade des Anglais owes its name to the wealthy British winterers who financed its construction in the 19th century.

Our charters

At Erasmus Place, the journey begins as soon as you get on the bus. It's a friendly atmosphere, where people get to know each other, have a laugh and share music and tips.

Our buses are comfortable, air-conditioned and equipped with toilets, barring major exceptions. We want you to feel at ease, even during several hours of driving. To make sure everything goes smoothly, we also have a few simple rules: respect for everyone, no inappropriate behavior, no consumption of alcohol or banned substances on the bus.

For each trip, we select quality establishments, always with a minimum 2-star rating for hotels. Whether it's a hotel or a hostel, you can count on comfortable, clean and conveniently located accommodation.

Our hotels and hostels are always located in the city center, close to places of interest and local entertainment, so you can make the most of your stay without wasting time in transport. With a few exceptions. 

Rooms are shared among friends, in a relaxed atmosphere, but we respect a simple rule: men stay with men, women with women. Rooms are divided into groups of 2, 3 or 4 people, depending on the configuration of the site. If you're traveling as a couple, it's possible to have a room for two, but only by prior arrangement.
We want you to feel comfortable, surrounded and safe throughout your stay.

Each Erasmus Place trip is supervised by one or more trained Tour Leaders, who are friendly and always available. Their role is to ensure that your stay is well organized, that the group is safe and that a friendly atmosphere prevails from departure to return. They welcome you, inform you, lead the trips, coordinate the different stages of the program and listen to you throughout the trip.

Our Tour Leaders are fluent in between two and five languages, including English, making it easy to communicate with all participants, whatever their nationality. They are not certified guides like those you find in museums, but they know perfectly well the destinations they visit, the instructions for the trip, and the good tips to share. They're there to accompany you, reassure you, answer your questions, deal with the unexpected and make sure you get the most out of your Erasmus experience.
Their aim is simple: to make sure you return home with your head full of memories... and the desire to go back (alone or with us!).
