Great views, horrible driver
Barbara_W
, Jun 2022
The trip is amazing. The sites are phenomenal. Our driver was literally insane. He drove too fast, erratically and the entire van of people kept asking him to slow down. The area was windy, high up and had few guardrails. We all thought we were going to crash and tumble into the deep ravine. Another driver would have made the trip spectacular. Our driver almost hit another car. Made it incredibly stressful.

Worthy experience

This was a really nice trip. The views were amazing as was also the scenic drive to the canyon. We stop multiple times along the way and got to explore 2 different towns. We also stop in the lavander fields but since the season has not started yet we were not able to enjoy the field. As an advice if the lavander fields is a must for you make sure is the right season. Otherwise you won’t get to see them. Overall it was a nice experience to explore and see another part of France. I also have to say our guide Francois was very nice and welcoming.

Anna was very informative and interesting and she was a good driver. We saw the Pont du Gard and Les Baux. I thought we’d also have time in San Remy but we only stopped on the outskirts.

The tour guide was great. Knowledgeable, considerate and accommodating. Visited two alpine villages, lake and Gorge. Wish We could have seen the lavender fields, but these were out of season. Overall a great time.

Beauty of Alps

It is one of the best experiences of my life. The places are picturesque and memorable. Moustiers Sainte Marie is the most beautiful village of France and worth spending whole day there. I would like to visit it again next year.

We loved visiting the mountains! Our guide (Placido) was knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed the tour with 3 other people that were fun to chat with. He took us on long but scenic drives that I would never want to do myself. Well worth the money! Thank you!

Must-do day trip
Debjani D
, Sep 2019
This full-day trip was amazing and an absolute must if you're in Nice or surrounding areas. Our tour guide, Parfait, was the perfect guide. He was knowledgeable, accommodating, timely, helpful, efficient, and well-planned. It was a long day, but you barely noticed because there was so much to see and do - natural beauty, history, delicious food options, gorgeous French country-side, etc. One of my favorite days of my trip. Totally worth every penny.

Une très bonne journée !
Marion

Nathan était un guide incroyable: toujours souriant et très attentif. Nous avons passé une très belle journée et nous le referions sans hésiter ! Le seul petit bémol est que nous n’avons pas eu la chance de visiter les champs de lavandes car ils avaient tous déjà été labourés. Nous avons appris le matin-même de notre excursion que cette activité n’était pratiquée qu’au mois de juillet. Il serait peut-être bon de le préciser sur le site internet pour éviter les mauvaises surprises.

Wir haben spontan gebucht, am Vorabend und wurden dann pünktlich um 8:30 direkt an der Rezeption unseres Hotels abgeholt... wir dachten wir wären in einer Reisegruppe, waren dann aber nur zu zweit... wir freuten uns das der Trip trotzdem stattfand... unsere Tour Guide(in) war großartig!!! Sie erzählte viel, ging auf alle Fragen und Bedürfnisse ein, war zuvorkommend und total cool! Wir würden jederzeit wieder mit ihr eine Tour machen! Am Ende des Tages machten wir sogar noch einen kurzen Abstecher zu einem Chateau, der war zwar nicht geplant, aber lag noch im Zeitrahmen... für uns war dies einer der tollsten Tage an der Côte d‘zure!
