Overview
Discover the highlights of the French Riviera on a shared small-group tour departing from Villefranche cruise port.
The tour will begin with a scenic drive to Grasse, the world’s perfume capital, where you’ll explore the charming old town on a guided walk. Learn about the city’s rich fragrance heritage with a visit to the historic Fragonard Perfume Factory, discovering traditional perfume-making techniques and regional craftsmanship.
Continue to the hilltop village of Gourdon, one of the most beautiful villages in the area. Perched high above the coast, Gourdon offers breathtaking panoramic views over the entire Côte d’Azur. Enjoy free time to wander the village streets, browse local artisan shops, and visit the family-run glass factory.
The experience concludes with a wine tasting at a typical local wine estate, where you will have the opportunity to sample wines from the Bellet hills, a unique and lesser-known wine region of Provence.
Throughout the day, your knowledgeable driver-guide will share insights while allowing a balance of guided commentary and free time, making this tour both informative and relaxing.
