Philippe our driver was very pleasant and an excellent driver. Our group’s favourite was visiting the Medieval towns. Never could have imagined how beautiful they would be!

This was quite a lovely addition to our honeymoon trip to France. Philippe was punctual, accommodating and very helpful all throughout the tour. He took us to places we would have otherwise missed, and recommended places to eat or try. I found we spent enough time at each location, and were dropped off close enough or right next to main attractions to make our stay easier. The highlight of the tour for me was the visit to the perfume factory, and later the three little medieval villages. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone who would like to visit and understand a bit more the region in just one day. It was honestly wonderful!

This is NOT a guided tour. This is a $1500 taxi service. Our driver dropped us off at St Paul at 9 am although ALL the stores were closed at that time and told us "go through the tunnel and follow your heart" and come back in 30 minutes. This was the same at Antibes, Cannes. ZERO recommendations on where to go and what should be seen, ZERO recommendation on restaurants. Literally dropped us in the middle of town and told us to come back at a certain time. Ironically, guidance was to be provided at the Fragrance factory where you would be shown how the perfume was made after which you could purchase perfumes; we refused this tour.
This was a great disappointment and a waste of money. We are requesting a refund.

We had a wonderful time in this tour. Philippe, our tour guide, was punctual, very organized and knowledgeable as well as attentive, courteous and respectful. The places we visited were amazing, including Antibes, Gourdon, Tourrettes and St Paul de Vence. Philippe suggested an auberge for lunch in Gourdon which turned out to be a great choice. The gazpacho and the Niçoise salad I had were superb. The owner, the waiter and the chef were hospitable and cordial.

Just came back from Nice, and I'm compelled to write a review for Philippe. First - punctuality, he picked us up on time. Also, cleanliness - the car was spotless and fresh! Second - Philippe gave us the history of every location we visited, that way when we arrived we knew what we were going to see. We had ample time in each place, and at every location we went, the group may have been late by 10 minutes, but he never rushed, complained, or cut time out of other locations.
Philippe is incredibly friendly and funny! We were a group of global strangers when we started, but we became friends by the end of the day in big part because Philippe made everyone feel at ease.
Philippe provided us recommendations of what to see at each location, including where to eat. Philippe's food recommendations were excellent, good quality, inexpensive, and scenic.
All in all - it was a fantastic day, we saw the entire medival countryside in a day and we learned a lot. I'd say if you want a good day, don't hesitate, Philippe is accommodating and does a great job.

Philippe the guide came to pick us up at the hotel at the scheduled time. Off we went with a nice air conditioned car to our destinations, the next more beautiful than the last. Philippe gave us tips as to what to do or see, and gave us time from 30 to 60 mins to wander around at each town. The views were magnificent and some of the places were definitely ones that we wouldn't have seen or visited on our own. We stopped at a restaurant to have lunch and it was one of the best meals of our holidays. Definitely recommend this excursion to anyone who wants to experience multiple gorgeous towns in a day with a great fun guide!
