FTC RIDER

offers private chauffeur transfers to and from Nantes Atlantique Airport, gateway to the birthplace of science-fiction pioneer Jules Verne and home to Les Machines de l’Île — a giant mechanical elephant, steampunk carousel and workshop of fantastical creatures built on the site of the old Loire shipyards.

FTC Rider covers the roughly 12km, 20–25 minute drive into central Nantes, as well as onward transfers to Saint-Nazaire’s historic WWII submarine base and Airbus wing-assembly plant on the Loire estuary, and to La Baule — an elegant Belle Époque beach resort with one of Europe’s finest sandy bays, 9km long.

Available 24/7 for early or late flights, FTC Rider’s Nantes Atlantique service suits families visiting Les Machines de l’Île, coastal holidaymakers heading to La Baule, and business travellers alike, with straightforward meet-and-greet pickups from the terminal.
