This lovely private day tour of St. Paul de Vence, Gourdon, Grasse and Cannes starts with a drive through the French Riviera. Your first stop on this guided tour will be the village of St. Paul de Vence, just a few miles from Nice, where you will enjoy exploring its ancient cobblestone lanes, fortified walls and art galleries. The picture-perfect views and plays on light here make it clear why so many impressionist painters came here for inspiration. You will make a photo stop at Tourrettes-sur-Loup, a medieval village known for its violet production, before winding up the charming Loup Gorges. You’ll round out your visit to Tourrettes-sur-Loup by tasting the Riviera’s special fruit and flower sweets at the Florian confectionary.

Next you will be treated to a fantastic view of the Alps, valleys and spectacular coastline from the medieval hilltop village of Gourdon. You will have time for lunch on your own, before taking a guided tour of a perfumery in Grasse, world capital of the perfume industry. If you prefer, you can have free time to visit the old town.

Your private tour of the French Riviera ends in Cannes, where you can walk along famous Croisette Boulevard, by the Film Festival Palace, designer shops and sandy beaches.
