Walk Alongside the Rich and Famous in Glamorous Cannes
In the morning depart for world famous town of Grasse, coined the capital of Perfumes. Situated on a slope in a natural amphitheater in the lower Alps, Grasse is a world leader in the production of natural fragrances for the perfume industry and of flavourings for food manufacturers. The perfume industry, although largely controlled by multinational groups, dominates the local economy.
Roses, jasmine, and other flowers, as well as bitter orange blossom, from which the perfumes are distilled, are cultivated in the close vicinity of the town. Here, participate in a guided visit of the Fragonard perfume factory to discover all the secrets behind perfume making.
Visit the Village of Gourdon
Then reach the village of Gourdon that sits on the edge of a Rocky Spur above the River Loup. The village is dotted with tiny shops but is also home to one of the most famous Candy making Factory named Florian. After some time in the village, we will drive along the Loup River through the countryside to discover some places that are a heaven of quietness.
Visit Saint Paul de Vence
In the afternoon, stop in medieval Saint Paul de Vence, sheltered behind its ramparts and filled with art galleries, boutiques and sidewalk cafes. The village of St-Paul dates back to the 11th century and traces of its history still remain much to the delight of its visitors. It is a village well known for its artistic heritage, the beautiful landscapes surrounding St-Paul having inspired many artists and an enclave of art galleries and museums can be found around the quaint cobbled streets.
After your visit, return to Nice.

Had an amazing experience visiting Cannes and the hinterland from Nice. Our driver and guide was amazing and knowledgeable. Going just after Covid meant lesser crowds. We could not have completed all the places we visited within a day without this assistance. I could enjoy the hills because I was not driving. I highly recommend this tour if you are in the Nice area. Amazing small picturesque villages along the route like Grasse the parfum capital, St Paul de Vence etc.
