This tour was just OK. The driver was an hour late from the original pickup time, which is fine, things happen. But no one messaged or called to let me know that they would be late. I messaged and called the tour group and they just gave me the driver’s number. The driver, Jaqueline, told us some history about Nice and the places we passed while heading to St Tropez, which was nice. There isn’t much to do in St. Tropez, and we had 3 hours there. Everyone on my tour agreed that an hour would have been more than sufficient. We then headed to Port Grimaud, and we all would have liked more time there. There are little electric boats you can rent but with only 45 mins, none of us felt like we had enough time to rent them. Overall, the tour was just OK, and I would recommend changing the timing so more time is spent in Port Grimaud (at least 2 hours).

The boat cruise, Saint Tropez and Port Grimaud was amazing but the van which drove us 3+ hours to Saint Tropez had no AC in the second and third row which made the journey extremely uncomfortable in 30+ degree weather. Highly recommended visiting Saint Tropez

Oh my goodness… I was left speechless after such a wonderful day! Not only was the weather spectacular, but the tour was absolutely amazing! A big thank you to my wonderful Chauffeur Smilie! She was so pleasant, welcoming and helpful! She got us to our destinations safely and showed us the best places (Saint Tropez, Port Grimaud , etc). This excursion was literally the highlight of my trip to the south of France. I will definitely contact Smart tours again because of my great experience with Smilie! Thanks again for everything! See you again soon!

Excellent tour company. Efficient, professional and knowledgeable. Our tour guide FX was the best ever. He was accommodating and we were able to see so much within the time frame. Tours were customized to suit our needs. We started off with 2 tours but we were so impressed that we added another one He recommended the best restaurants ever. You can’t go wrong with Smart tour and FX as your guide. Highly recommended

We met a great group of people traveling to Nice. However, the guide didn’t take very good care of us or the details. We had paid the optional boat ride in Saint Tropez which I highly recommend doing. However, she didn’t communicate with the boat captain that it was payed for & set. She simply gave us a tour brochure & told us to present that. She didn’t make sure dropping us off in Saint Tropez that we knew what to do etc. Then she impolitely stated that we would be left behind if we were 10 minutes late & she was almost 15 minutes late. The back of the van was quite uncomfortable & we had to ride back there both ways. I would recommend taking a boat ride to & from Saint Tropez or just a regular bus. It would have been more comfortable. We could have done without going to Port Grimaud.. just a shopping stop. Because of our bad experience with this, we cancelled our tour of Eze & Monte Carlo & will just go there on our own via train. Trains are more comfortable than these vans.

We paid for a boat trip. That's the main reason we did this trip. If not for that, we would have chosen something else to do with our vacation time. It turns out that Viator allowed us to pay the extra money without knowing (or caring to know) that the boat company the local tour uses WAS CLOSED during our trip. Furthermore, there was NOTHING open when we went - shops and cafes were closed. Port Grimaud, especially, was a ghost town. Our driver even took pictures of the place to share with his manager to prove that nothing was open. This trip was not only expensive... it was a waste of a day. The whole thing felt extremely dishonest. We paid for a service and we paid for a fun day. Why would Viator even offer this tour at this time? And why would they let us pay extra for a boat trip that could not have possibly happened? It makes us question their business ethics. We were offered a 40 dollar discount after lodging a complaint. THAT DOES NOT EVEN COVER THE COST OF THE BOAT TOUR THAT DID NOT HAPPEN. The core price for the boat trip would have been 40 euros (10 euros per person for 4 people), according to Viator. Basic knowledge of exchange rates should indicate that we spent more than 40 dollars for the boat trip. As a travel company, they should know this. Also, according to our notes, we spent significantly more than 10 dollars per person, which probably helped offset overhead costs. Again, we are questioning Viator's basic business ethics (and competence) here. Viator... get it together. Be good to your customers. Because of you we wasted an entire day of our vacation and paid more than 500 dollars to do so. You should be ashamed.
