Discover the best of Provence, from lavender fields and vineyards to charming medieval towns, on a day trip from Nice. Visit Antibes, Grasse, Gordon, Saint Paul de Vence, and Tourrettes-sur-Loup.
After a hotel pickup from Nice, begin your tour in Antibes where you'll discover the old town and market square. Stroll along Billionaire's Pier and admire the luxury yachts. Then, switch gears and shop colorful wares at a traditional Provencal market.
Next, travel to the old town of Grasse on the French Riviera, the historical center of French perfumery since the end of the 18th century. Visit Fragonard Perfumery while you’re exploring the world's capital of perfume.
Continue to Saint Paul De Vence and walk in the footsteps of famous artists like Matisse, Picasso, and Chagall. Stop for lunch and then make your way to Gourdon, an ancient town with a fortified gate, narrow streets, and half-timbered houses, perched on a rocky outcrop.
End your tour in the medieval village of Tourrettes-sur-Loup, a charming medieval village perched on a narrow spur of land extending from very rocky hills. Also known as Cite des Violettes, this village became a meeting point for artists in the 1920s and remains an artistic haven on the Riviera.
