What to expect
Expect a day built around walking through villages and pausing at viewpoints rather than museum visits. Your guide will point out architectural details, explain how communities evolved, and share stories about local life—past and present. You'll move between settlements by comfortable air-conditioned transport, so you're not hiking all day, but each village stop involves moderate walking on uneven terrain and slopes. The pace is leisurely enough for conversation but steady; this isn't a relaxed stroll.
Good to know
Bring comfortable walking shoes and sun protection. The tour involves regular climbing and descending, so moderate fitness is essential. Lunch isn't provided—eat before or plan to grab something in one of the villages. Summer heat can be intense along the Côte d'Azur.
