The 10 Best Tours in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur

September 1, 2021 Vergie Nakamoto

The deep blue waters of the Cote d’Azur are the dramatic backdrop for elegant Nice. Breathe in the fresh Mediterranean air as you stroll the waterfront promenade, or get an eagle eye of the whole city from atop Castle Hill. The pedestrians-only Place Rossetti is the heart of the city, with a grand fountain, vibrant buildings, and the beautiful Sainte-Réparate cathedral giving it a provincial French feel.

Starting with hotel pickup in Nice, this private 8-hours tour of Provence gives you the chance to discover the hidden treasures and typical delights of this beloved region of France. Visit places such as Mougins perched at 750 feet above sea level and located between Cannes and Grasse. Mougins is known for its Gastronomy festival (the stars of Mougins) and it is now an important tourist centre, having successfully preserved its quiet atmosphere and its particular character. You will visit typical villages as Saint Paul de Vence, Tourettes sur Loup, Gourdon and the perfume city of Grasse. Drive through the Gorges du Loup (Loup Canyon) where the river had carved huge gorges, one of the most beautiful natural curiosities in the Provence region. Feel the charm of former Provence villages and discover their medieval architecture and art in Tourrettes sur Loup or Saint Paul de Vence. Try Lavender or violette ice cream in Gourdon and enjoy the view from about 2000 feet above sea level.

Inclusions: Live commentary on board, Private guide, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Transport by air-conditioned minivan, Free WIFI (on demand)

Exclusions: Food and drinks, unless specified

This review is long overdue. But when a friend asked me what they should do while in France I had to recommend this day trip with Yvonne. Yvonne tailor made our day so that my husband and I were able to see the things most important to us. Her knowledge of the area is truly wonderful. We were able to visit little villages, talk to the shop owners, taste incredible food and see sights we would not have explored on our own. Of course her Mercedes was very clean and comfortable. Yvonne is a warm and friendly host. The day spent with her as our guide was the highlight of our trip to France.

Had a fantastic experience with my man on a one-day tour and hike to Lalumha Falls. The main hike to the falls took about 1.5 hours total, and our guide (Seamus) was great — very positive and energetic. We also did some light hiking by a beach on Oahu, and the main hike to the falls was followed by beach time on Oahu’s north shore. Great day; definitely recommend this experience!

Le Vieux Nice or the Old Nice is the iconic district of the city where the Italian art and architecture, reminiscent of the City’s volatile past, remain still very tangible... In this tour, you’ll discovery the ever-unpredictable history of Nice, a city, by its outer appearance has no or very little equivalent in the rest of France. The narrow streets of the congested Old City center—a legacy from its medieval origins—and its typical architecture with mixed styles from the Middle Age to the late 19th century, shall take you by surprise. Typical provençal markets and historical outlets are there for you to make unforgettable shopping experiences. Along the tour, you will learn a great deal of anecdotes and trivia about local people, products and food.

Inclusions: All Fees and Taxes, Professional guide

First off let’s start with Ivette, our guide. She sealed the five stars with her calm reassurance, attentiveness, and low key management whilst at the same time being a lovely and interesting companion for the day. The organisation is great, from Gustav’s initial communication to his greeting in the shop and even the arrangement with the patisserie around the corner is far from what your initial cynicism suspects (or is that just me?). The cycling there was fairly hard going, even with the power assistance, although the 30+ heat did have a bearing on that. Stating the obvious, coming down is a lot easier.....and exhilarating. The tour around the vineyard is informative and informal and makes you fully appreciate why you pay a premium for a quality wine. That said, the four varieties produced at the winery are reasonably priced and hopefully taste as good back home as they did while eating lunch and fresh figs from the tree (once Ivette showed me where they were). A memorable day that I would thoroughly recommend to anyone capable of riding a bike.

We booked a 3 hour Segway tour around Nice. Gianni was our very cool guide and re-acquainted us with their Segways. Of course the little Segway dance was completed and we showed our age as we are 60+. But a few minutes and Gianni had us good to go. We went from the Promenade all the way around the waterfront to Villefranche sur Mer and back over the hill through the wealthy suburbs and back to base. We took 30+ minutes to explore the tunnels in the fortress walls in Villefranche sur Mer which were amazing dating back over 400 years and then had a relaxing coffee on and the waterfront. The Segways have 2 speeds, in a crowd and on road which Gianni sets depending on location. Plenty of power and very quick on the road. Gianni was an excellent guide and would highly recommend him and his company he guides for.
