Highlights
- La Croisette - After being picked-up at your hotel by our English-speaking tour guide, you will head towards the motorway (speedway) and shoot off from there to the the scintillating town of Cannes. Explore the city and discover its magnificent palaces along the Croisette boulevard : the Carlton, the Majestic or the Martinez where the stars are staying during the Film Festival. - Palais des Festivals et des Congres of Cannes - Take the opportunity to walk on the famous red carpet covering the world famous steps of the Palais des Festivals - where it all takes place in May - you might feel like walking up ‘the 24 steps of glory’ and perhaps strike your most graceful pose on the red carpet. Do have a look at the local Walk of Fame with its celebrities’ handprints before you go, too. - Antibes - Once the high-end boutiques and splendid hotels of Cannes are left behind, you will take the coastal road to Antibes which traverses the summer resorts of Golfe-Juan and Juan-les-Pins, both steeped in history as well as ongoing events. You’ve now reached Antibes, or Antipolis as the Greeks had first named it. A town which played the role of sentinel for the country during many centuries, hence its ramparts circling the Old Town. There you might consider strolling along those XVth century walls and Grimaldi Castle - nowadays the Picasso museum. Then your guide will drive you out of the Old Town. Once past Antibes’ large marina and its ‘Billionaires’ Quay‘, you will proceed along the coastline until you reach the town of Villeneuve-Loubet with its extraordinary ‘Marina of the Bay of Angels’ from where you will go inland towards your last site visit. - St-Paul-de-Vence - Last but not least, Saint-Paul-de-Vence will enchant you. When walking through the mesmerizing maze of cobbled streets with their numerous listed monuments, it becomes clear how this medieval village appealed to a vast number of artists with the likes of Matisse, Modigliani, Chagall or Picasso instilling a definite artistic touch that one can now ascertain when gazing at the windows of the countless art galleries. Taking you back to another time - notably due to its aura of light at certain hours - it is no wonder why famous actors too have chosen the quaint village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence as their ideal retreat when coming to stay on the Riviera.

Highly recommended!! Very good experience! - Overall, the tour was well-planned and all 3 destinations are beautiful. We had enough time in each location, nothing rush. But I want to give a big thank to our tour guide, Mr.Julian. ( I hope I write his name right). He was the biggest reason that makes the tour incredible. He was very kind, gentle, knowledgeable and took care of us very well. Such a gentleman. He knows a lot about Cannes and celebrities there, which was impressive! He also prepared umbrellas for us. 10/10 for him!

Amazing tour. Highly recommend - Our driver cum guide Melanie is simply amazing ! We enjoyed the tour very much. She’s hardworking to narrate history to us
She is nice and friendly.
The only setback is the time in Cannes is a tad too short which I have feedback to the tour company
Other than that. I highly recommend this tour. ;))

Tour guide made the experience! - Our guide for this tour was Sébastien and he was excellent! He was knowledgeable, accommodating and very friendly; giving us recommendations and tips for our time in the south of France. It was a hot day, but Sébastien always had clear communication and made sure we had somewhere to meet in the shade!
The tour itself was brilliant, giving us a good insight into the places that we visited. I would never have known about St. Paul de Vence and its Middle Ages charm had we not done this tour. We will be making a point to return in the future! It was good to have time to explore on our own as well as having the insight of the guide who obviously knows the area very well.
