Fantastic day tour! - Ibrahim was a wonderful driver and guide, warm and welcoming and shared many details about the history and culture of the area. The ride was comfortable and we visited the villages of Grasse, Gourdon, Tourettes-sur-Loup, and St Paul de Vence. The drives were stunning and scenic with views of over the entire Nice area, small winding roads and waterfalls. Each stop was beautiful and fascinating. Ibrahim gave us some information and history, and then left plenty of time to explore on our own. It was an amazing day and my daughter said it was her favorite day of our entire trip. Highly recommend!

Excellent day trip you don’t want to miss - Abraham is a warm and welcoming guide, explained much about the history of all the villages we visited, making this trip truly memorable. This won't be our last visit to Nice; we'll definitely join Abraham as our guide again next time.

Amazing village Tour - The tour was truly 5-star plus from start to finish. Our driver, Abraham, was an exceptionally kind and courteous man, as well as highly knowledgeable. His insight into Nice and the surrounding villages really enhanced the experience, and nothing was ever too much trouble for him. We were fortunate to be the only couple on the tour, which made it feel like a private experience. The minivan accommodates up to 8 people, which would still make for a comfortable and friendly group if full. The day began with a visit to a perfume factory in Grasse, followed by a stop in the beautiful village. We then explored Gourdon, Tourrettes-sur-Loup, and Saint-Paul-de-Vence — all stunning French villages with plenty to see, along with lovely unique shops and amazing restaurants. The views are spectacular from each village, Abraham will stop along the journey for some spectacular photo opportunities. There was sufficient time in each location, and we especially enjoyed a longer stop in Tourrettes-sur-Loup, where we had lunch in the town square, sitting in the sunshine. Abraham also surprised us with an extra stop at a beautiful waterfall along the way, which was a lovely added touch. This was a full-day trip to four incredible villages, led by a genuinely warm and thoughtful guide. Abraham, thank you for such a wonderful day , we enjoyed every minute. We would highly recommend this tour. Yvonne & Tony from England

Stunning hill towns near Nice - Bryan picked us up at our hotel! Our trip was well paced and our guide did an excellent job of giving us an historical overwiew of the region. The stops were well placed, the towns were stunning, each one better than the first. The Fragonard tour was delightful

Amazing Medieval Villages with a Very Gracious Tout Guide - Our tour guide, Ibrahim was very accommodating. We had to be back at port by 530p, a half hour earlier than when the tour was slated to end. He offered to pick us up 30 minutes earlier and adjust his schedule to accommodate our needs. The van was very comfortable and Ibrahim was the perfect gentleman and host. He took us to a beautiful waterfall, which was a bonus location that was not in the itinerary. He paid the entrance fee and treated us to coffee afterwards, an example of his graciousness and flexibility. If you are looking for a courteous guide and a private tour experience, this is a great option. If I had one area of opportunity to offer Ibrahim it would be to give more historical information for each site. He provided some as an introduction at the beginning of our tour and a little as we arrived at each location but we found ourselves asking him questions which he could answer 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time his answers were high level and he encouraged us to read more on our own about the historical figure or location. We weren’t expecting him to give us a complete anthology of any one person but a nice overview that ties in the significance of what we’re seeing would have been good. Again, it was not to the extent that I would not take this tour if I had to do it again. I just noticed another tour guide who was near us at several sites who gave much more info to his group wh I found interesting and went out of my way to eavesdrop to fill in the few blanks that Ibrahim omitted. If you are considering this tour, DO IT! You won’t be disappointed. THANK YOU, IBRAHIM FOR A SPECTACULAR JOURNEY TO THE MOST AMAZING MEDIIEVIL VILLAGES.
