If you want to be late (not all the fault of organizer due to Ironman, and you want to be in the back of a minivan with no way to hear the commentary, then be dropped at Antibes for 45 min with no tour guide and just walk around aimlessly, then drive to Cannes for 1/2 hour this trip is for you! Simply not well planned, or choreographed. I’m actually writing this mid tour. That’s my level of satisfaction.

Itinerary
In Cannes, you will have an opportunity to walk down the famous Croisette, the promenade that became the emblem of Cannes. And you will discover the Palace of Festivals with its red carpet, the home of the famous Cannes Film Festival.
Antibes is one of France’s oldest cities which was founded by Greek merchants in the 5th century and where nowadays the genuine Provencal Market goers and the very rich Yacht-owners meet in one single town. It is one of the most attractive and interesting places to visit on this section of the coast, with all the ingredients you could hope for - an attractive seafront area, historic buildings, and an interesting old town with a traditional market.
Finally, you will discover St Paul de Vence that is certainly one of the most beautiful villages in Provence, recognized for its cultural and artistic note. You will notice that art is very present here, through many workshops or galleries. Art galleries will immerse you in the past. St Paul de Vence is the cradle of artists, writers, poets (Prévert, Pagnol) and painters (Chagall, Picasso, Matisse).

I was present at the pickup location (Paul's bakery by the Nice station) an hour before pickup time, to make sure i do not miss it. The time came and nobody showed up carrying signs that said "Happy Riviera Tours" or anything like that. How was I supposed to know who / where exactly I was meeting them for pickup? The message had only said "Paul Bakery" (which is where I was at), but WHERE exactly? All the other tours I have booked during my trip to Europe had their guides hold signs or at least wear a uniform that identified them to their customers &/or mentioned AHEAD OF TIME exactly how to identify and meet them. Not this tour! I kept going around the Paul Bakery looking for someone holding a sign, or a little flag, or wearing a uniform, or holding my name... NOTHING. 5 minutes before they left without me, they email me saying "Black Van License Plate ******". I missed the email.. and missed the tour. And, of course, no refund. What a "Happy" Riviera Tour that was for me.... NOT!
Everything was incredible and entertaining, one of the best tours you can experience. Also the tour guide was so kind to us
Great way to see these beautiful hotspots. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and helpful, so thank you!
We had a lovely experience. Nicole was an amazing guide and driver. Wish we had more time to do more
This was a great way to get a taste of the French Riviera in just half a day. The stops in Cannes, Antibes, and St. Paul de Vence were short, but perfect for getting a feel for each destination and deciding where we'd like to spend more time on a future trip. Hotel pickup was seamless, and our guide, Bruno, was fun, engaging, and shared lots of interesting information throughout the tour. We really enjoyed it!
We enjoyed the tour and the three cities. I would recommend the tour and driver that we had. My only disappointment was that we could not hear him speak or any commentary in the very back wheee we had to sit the entire time.
This half day trip was the perfect amount of guided tour by van, telling us all kinds of background information, and then free time in each town to do whatever we wished, on our own. We really enjoyed it.
I took this tour with my daughter. We were bitterly disappointed. Our driver, Laurent, was grumpy, negative and argumentative. He was totally unsuited to the job of a tour guide. He complained incessantly about how uneducated people were nowadays, how much better the South of France was in the past and how tourism had ruined the area. He kept saying how awful Cannes was, even tho it was part of our itinerary. He made us feel really uncomfortable. The places we went to were great but he spoiled our enjoyment of the experience.
I enjoyed my day with my guide Rapheal. He was kind, informative and made my experience delightful. I saw all the highlights I came to see and more. Raphael also was attentive to my needs getting in out of the van due to my foot brace. Thank you.
Trip was fantastic for a family of 5. We were picked up on the right time directly from our hotel by a very helpful driver come guide Guido. Travel was cozy, not rushed and we stopped in key spots with adequate time.
Driver did not turn up at the appointed time and did not respond to our several calls. No communication with customers in advance even there are unexpected issues. A simple call will help even if driver is late. Totally irresponsible. Very disappointed.
An amazing afternoon! We loved this trip. Cannes, Antibes and Saint Paul de Vence were all beautiful but our tour guide Sam made the day so memorable because he told us so much information and history. Sam was a very friendly guide who made us so welcome and helped make our trip unforgettable. Truly a 5 Star tour guide! Sincere thanks Sam.
Nicole was a wonderful person with the explanation of the places and kept with her timing. She also followed us to take pictures and made us feel comfortable. Thanks Nicole.
Nicole was very professional and kind guide.Injoed all activities at that day.Beside tour she is a very good driver.Thank you very much.
Nicole was great and the tour is fun. Easy half day and not too much walking. Some hills and steps. Good tour Company. Well worth it!
Nice experience. Really enjoyed Antibe and St. Paul. Cannes was a quick stop. Could have skipped it and spent more time in St. Paul. Nicole was lovely.
Nicole did an awesome job as our tour guide. Very informative, gave us lots of time to visit the market and medieval village. Awesome views.
Mimi is fantastic! She's very charming, patient, knowledgeable, and cool! She gave very relatable information about the different points we passed along our trip and about the cities we visited. She gave great advice on how to organize our visits to each town, and she was very prompt when picking us up, too. It was very important to her that we enjoyed our tour and visits to each town. This was a great road trip!
Wonder your. St Paul is beautiful!! You could spend the entire day just wandering the beautiful cobblestone roads with all the shops and restaurants.
Absolutely worth doing this tour. Nicole is a great guide and driver. She gave a lot of additional information about the area and recommendations. Very well organised and informative. I recommend to do this tour.
Mario was a great guide on this tour. We had time in every place to look around. 7 people on this tour and a very good mood. Very nice experience 😊
The driver brought us to each of the 3 cities listed in the tour description. However, he provided very little information to us about the towns ( he was a driver - not a tour guide ) and we had only about 30 minutes to walk around in each stop. I would not recommend this tour.
St-Paul-de-Vence is a magnificent site not to be missed!!! We even preferred it to Cannes. Pure beauty and it would have needed more time.
An amazing experience knowing his story and seeing such beautiful things, Mr. Rafael treated us very well, was very friendly and helpful.
