Tour Details

After meeting your professional guide on the pier in Cannes, travel to the Medieval village of Saint Paul de Vence, which was founded in the 10th Century A.D. Fortified in 1537 by the military engineer François de Meudon de St Remy, the walls were enlarged under Louis XIV. Since the 1920s, Saint Paul has become a haven for actors, writers and painters including Marc Chagall. Upon arrival, free time will be made available to take photos and explore the village, which is filled with numerous art galleries, boutiques, and cafes where you can have a drink on your own and watch the world go by. Lunch is on own.

After lunch, drive to Grasse whose fame reaches back to the 16th century when it began producing perfumed leather gloves and aromatic plants. Today it has become the world center of perfume manufacturing. Whilst in Grasse guests will visit a factory to discover how perfume and essences are manufactured. After the tour you will drive back to Cannes.
