Roseanne_H, Apr 2026

Excellent tour with a fantastic tour guide

Great introduction to the area and the guide is fantastic . Loved St Paul de Vence - charming old walled-in village with phenomenal views. Cannes is one of those places you go to because you're here in the area and it's famous for the film festival - enjoyed it but now that I've been I do t really need to go back. Very glad we did this tour and Highly recommend if you're looking for a short day trip from Nice.

Train trip through Alps

An excellent excursion and a true bargain for everything that was included. Samuel, our guide, was excellent. He was so personable. He easily made everyone feel comfortable and welcome. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area. At the end of the day we’re exhausted-but happy. Thank you, Samuel!

Must do in Nice

My wife and I had an amazing time exploring the surrounding villages of Nice. Our guide, Nabil, was very knowledgeable about France as a whole and everywhere that we went. We had the perfect amount of time to explore on our own in each town. We would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Nice!

Provence Wine Tour - Small Group Tour from Nice

Peter_C, Apr 2026

Firstly, our host/guide,...

Firstly, our host/guide, Peter, was excellent. In addition to his broad general knowledge of wine, he is intimately familiar with the Provençe, and obviously has a great relationship with the wineries that we visited (Chateau Saint-Martin, Château Clarettes, Château Font du Broc), knowing their histories and blending in with their employees as if one of them. Additionally, he is very easy to speak to and treats every guest/tourist with respect, inviting questions and displaying interest in everybody's (eight in total) background. The wines speak for themselves, and they were all very good, but a good guide adds so much to the experience.

Catherine is the perfect guide for the French Rivera.

The day was delightful. We saw all the famous spots plus some small medieval gems. The time at each spot was just right. Catherine was knowledgeable about the history of the area and gave us clear instructions on what to see, the time we had at each stop and where to meet up. She made the day info packed and stress free. The perfume tour was an added bonus.

Khotam_I, Oct 2025

Well worth it

We joined the Cannes, Antibes, and St Paul de Vence Full-Day Small Group Tour from Nice, and it was a great experience! There were three couples in a comfortable minivan, and our guide, Fatima, made the day fun and enjoyable. We were picked up and dropped off from our hotel right on time. The drive was smooth, and the views along the way were beautiful. We didn’t care much for Cannes, but Antibes and St Paul de Vence were fascinating — especially the charming Old Town. Definitely a nice way to see more of the French Riviera in one day!

Great day on this tour....

Great day on this tour. Our guide was great - Amil I believe was his name. Scenery was spectacular. Loved everything about it the only disappointing part was I felt we were far too long at the Fragonard fragrance factory. As a result we were not able to tour the village of Eze which was a part of the tour. At any rate it was a fabulous sunny day and my husband and I had an absolute riot in touring in the motor bikes.

This is your sign to book the tour!

Captain Paul was a riot and deserves a raise!!! He was very knowledgeable about the villages, gave us a ton of fun facts and bumped the best tunes. The best way to see the French Riviera is on this boat if you are looking for a thrill. The boat does goes really fast but it’s so much fun. Swimming in the clear water was a highlight of the tour and stopping in the town for breakfast! 20/10 would recommend!

Highlight of Nice vacation

This was the highlight of our trip to Nice. George was fantastic—a warm host, very knowledgeable of the area and its history. The boat was comfortable and the trip smooth. George tailored the trip to what we wanted to do and we enjoyed a lovely swim and then an equally lovely rose wine. Perfect!
