What to expect
Expect a mix of leisurely driving and walking through distinct landscapes. Morning hours often cover the Riviera's main towns—beachfronts, upmarket boutiques, Belle Époque architecture—before heading inland toward hillside villages. The perfumery visit involves a guided demonstration; staff explain techniques and ingredients. Afternoons shift to quieter terrain: narrow cobbled streets, village squares, views across vineyards and valleys. Distances are manageable but the day involves several short walks and climbing village staircases. Your guide provides context on local history and the region's artistic heritage.
Good to know
Admission fees to sites are separate. Wear comfortable shoes for uneven village pavements. The tour suits moderate fitness levels; some villages involve uphill walking. Infant car seats available if requested at booking. Bring sun protection and water.
