Stunning views, villages straight out of a fairytale - Philippe did a great job. He was prompt, informative, funny, and a smooth driver on the mountain roads. The views were stunning and the villages like something out of a story book. Highly recommend this tour!

A Great Experience in the French Countryside - This tour was great. Philippe was amazing and very accommodating. His knowledge of the area was great, and we loved being only 2 of 4 guests. The perfumery tour was very interesting, and the towns visited so full of history. And thanks to his schedule, we had no problem getting back to our cruise ship in Villafranche on time. Thanks for a great day! We highly recommend this tour when in Nice.

Best of the Best Tour Guides in Nice, France - We had the pleasure of visiting the three medieval villages with our wonderful, fun and knowledgeable tour guide/driver Phillipe. I highly recommend booking him in advance as he is in high demand. Phillipe picked my wife and another couple on time and gave a spectacular background on the three villages. The drive along the way was pleasant and he always kept us smiling and laughing with great anecdotes, There was always enough time to tour the areas without feeling rushed. He also provides suggestions for lunch and a quick coffee break. I Our private tour for four was also reasonably priced and his vehicle/was spotless, Again, try to get his services in advance.

Pleasant experience and beautiful villages - Pleasant guide, lovely conversation, introduced to each part of the trip and always kept us informed. The medieval villages are beautiful, we had enough time to walk around and check out local art galleries and souvenir shops. We felt very at ease during the trip, the pace was great, saw and learnt new things. Loved visiting Fragonard factory.

Lovely morning tour - Philippe was a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. We had an enjoyable visit at the Fragonard factory in Grasse. The 3 villages we got to see subsequently were gorgeous. Gourdon was probably my favourite. I highly recommend this tour.

Sold me a Dud - I went there to get an aftershave for my husband and the lady sold me a bottle of ladies perfume. My husband didn’t like it and looked it up to find it was a ‘ classic ladies perfume’. Thanks for nothing Fragonard and caveat emptor to the buyers out there
