Perched Villages & Countryside Tour of Provence

Provence is full of towns worth visiting. Discover the most beautiful towns of the region with this excursion from Nice.

Perched Villages & Countryside Tour

Having picked you up at your hotel in Nice at 8 am, we make our way to Grasse to visit the Fragonard perfume factory, for which the town has been known for nearly 150 years.

Here, we learn about the history of this factory as well as the details of the production process of its iconic fragrances. Next stop? Gourdon, a town 760 metres above sea level that offers breathtaking views of the Côte d'Azur.

During the tour, we also enjoy the fascinating views of the Saut du Loup waterfalls. Then, it's on to Tourrettes-sur-Loup: another town frequented by musicians, painters, and writers in the 1950s. Famed for its fields of violets, this paradise is the ideal place to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city.

Lastly, the tour takes us to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, a town that transports its visitors to the Middle Ages and has, over the years, attracted many artists giving it a distinctive flair.

Finally, at 5 pm we return to your hotel in Nice, concluding the tour.
