Great tour with enough time for everything - It was a great tour. Definitely worth it. We had enough time in every place. We left in time at 9:00 and returned shortly before 14:30. Philippe provided enough information about tour and each place. But be aware that you are on your own in each town. We knew it and prepared ourselves but based on reviews some people expected guided walk in each town.

Great Day w. Phillippe - Phillippe, our guide and driver, gave us a great day. Not only did he arrive a few minutes early, but we had a very confortable van to drive the hills in. Not too large for the windy roads but big enough to be comfortable. He was very informative about the midevil cities we visited and always got us dropped off conveniently close so we did not have to walk long distances from parking lots to the city centers. Can thank him enough for providing this different perspective of the area compared to the coast.

Great tour from Nice! - Wonderful experience seeing several beautiful historic villages in the hills of the Cote d’Azur, as well as the Fragonard perfume factory. Our guide, Philippe, was very knowledgeable and kept the day very organized, allowing us to see all that we could. I’m very happy that I got to see these places, and that the tour was so convenient.

Fantastique! - This is a brilliant tour! Philippe was funny and charming, with so much knowledge of the history and culture of the local area. He’s also a good and safe driver. We enjoyed our Fragonard factory tour the most, but each of the little villages also had plenty to see and do. A great day out for this Irish family!

Lovely villages - We had a great day. Philippe our guide was very knowledgeable. While there was only a short stay in each location there was enough time to get a good overview. We enjoyed the tour.

Fascinating perfumery and lovely villages - The perfumery was fascinating and the villages were beautiful but our visits were too short and we felt rushed. This would be better as a full day tour.

Too expensive - Very nice store but too expensive. Located just at the entrance of St Paul de vence which is a very beautiful city. To visit in the morning before 10:30 in high season
