“I absolutely loved it! We had a great guide Paul, he made the trip even better. We went for a little sail to Villefranche and he explained lots of things about the coastline and amazing houses. Then we had a swim, rose in the water and a local snack. And finished the evening watching the sunset - can’t wish for a better way to end my holidays (last day)!”
4 hours of Old Nice tastings, wine pairings, and a Castle Hill picnic with niçoise favorites and desserts.

Taste Nice with a small-group market walk, wine and olive oil pairings, artisan shop stops, and a Castle Hill picnic with views.
“We had a most interesting tour with our guide Clare. She was informative, interesting and had a great rapport with all our group. She was particularly thoughtful, making sure everyone was happy with the itinerary and personalising it to suit our requests. She then produced an amazing picnic from her backpack, which was served with accompanying information about all the ingredients and origins of the product. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would have no hesitation in recommending highly.”
Small-group day trip from Nice to Grasse, Valbonne, Gourdon, and a Bellet wine tasting, with hotel pickup and perfume history.
“The lunch stop and the waterfalls were amazing. The fragrance factory felt a bit like a tourist trap, but I will say the women in our tour loved it and bought a bunch. The wine tasting was cute and I liked the family feel but our group didn’t love the wine. Overall we didn’t feel like the tour was worth the cost. Additionally our guide Victor was not great, felt like he didn’t know where he was going and his driving made us all motion sick. He was nice, but I think if we could have toured it all on our own tbh.”
