About this activity

Escape the Côte d'Azur for a full-day immersion into Provence's hilltop villages and artisan heritage, departing directly from your Nice hotel. This small-group tour combines medieval architecture, local craftsmanship, and countryside landscapes in a single 9-hour experience.

This tour offers you the opportunity to discover the authenticity and charm of the picturesque medieval villages of Provence.
This seamless, multi-part tour will whisk you away to the region’s top destinations, all in one day. Meet your guide at your hotel in Nice, hop aboard your air-conditioned vehicle, and set off with just a small group for company. You’ll visit the Parfumerie Fragonard in Grasse, will explore Gourdon, Tourrettes-sur-Loup, will ascend to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, and more…

Highlights

  • ✓Fragrance creation at Parfumerie Fragonard in Grasse, the world's perfume capital

Insider tips

  • ★Visit Parfumerie Fragonard early in the tour when energy is highest; the perfume-blending demonstrations are interactive and best appreciated fresh
  • ★Wear comfortable walking shoes—medieval villages involve steep cobbled streets and significant elevation changes between stops
  • ★Ask your guide for restaurant recommendations in the villages; lunch is typically on your own, but local spots away from main squares offer better value and authenticity

Good to know

  • •Air-conditioned vehicle provided; bring sunscreen and a hat for village exploration
  • •Meals and drinks not included; budget for lunch and café stops in the villages
