About this tour

A seven-hour coastal loop from Cannes exploring three distinctive Riviera destinations. Start in Grasse, the world's perfume hub, with a guided tour through the Fragonard factory to see how scents are crafted. Next, wander Antibes' medieval ramparts and harbour-side streets lined with galleries and cafés. Finish in the hilltop village of St Paul de Vence, where narrow lanes wind past contemporary art spaces and panoramic views. Your driver handles transport between each stop.

Highlights

  • Behind-the-scenes look at Fragonard's perfume-making process
  • Medieval walls and working harbour of Antibes
  • St Paul de Vence's art galleries and village alleyways
  • Private air-conditioned transport with knowledgeable driver
  • Port pickup and drop-off included

What to expect

Expect a relaxed pace with time to explore each location at your own rhythm between guided segments. Grasse's perfume factory visit runs about 90 minutes with commentary on distillation and blending techniques. Antibes gives you roughly two hours to browse the old town, rampart views, and harborfront. St Paul de Vence, perched on a hilltop, involves some uphill walking through tight medieval streets; allow two hours here. Travel time between sites totals around 90 minutes. Your guide provides historical context and can recommend stops, but you're free to veer off the main route.

Good to know

Wear comfortable walking shoes for uneven cobblestones. Bring water and sun protection. Food and drinks aren't included, though each village has cafés and restaurants. Infant seats available—request during booking. Moderate fitness needed for St Paul de Vence's inclines.
