Our tour guide arrived on time with a lovely friendly greeting. He explained exactly what we were going to do and assisted with putting us in a lovely air conned mini van. We then made our was to Antibes. On the way our tour guide gave us details on what we would experience in each area and other facts about the surrounding areas. As we approached Antibes he showed us all the best bits and where the toilets were. We then had an hour and a half at Antibes experiencing the markets, the views and shops. We then left and made our way to St Paul de Vence. B E A U T I F U L spot, best part of my day. We were then given two hours in SPDV to admire the scenery, shops and the qaint details. Gorgeous place. You stop over lunch here and lots of restaurants to eat at or if you like something smaller a nice cafe to grab a bagette at. Plenty of shade here on a hot day. After we left St Pauls we made our way to the Vine yard. Were here for an hour and a half and got a tour of the vine yard followed by wine tasting. On our way back we made a stop at a beautifil waterfall then got dropped back off to our hotel. 10/10 experience for us, family of four two adults & 2 children. I had both my children with me aged 9&6 and they enjoyed every element of this tour.
We were picked up at 8:20 am at our hotel. We had to travel 1.5 hours to pick up another 3 people. We were to have a 9 hour tour but had 7. We were supposed to have 3 hours at Marche Provencal; we had 1. We were to have 2.5 hours in Saint-Paul-de-Vence and had 1 hour 20 minutes. The winery we had 1 hour instead of 3 with 3 wine tastings (was told 6). We had no waterfalls visit at all! Our driver said the traffic was too bad! I called Happy Riviera Tours when I got to the room and told them we were not happy. We did not get what we paid for/ what was advertised. She said she needed to talk to the driver and she'd call back. I'm still waiting. I've tried numerous times to call, texted with both phone and WhatsApp and no response. Now calls will not go through. We spent 3.5 hours in the van and 3.5 hours on tour. I do not recommend this tour! I have screen shots of all my calls, texts and the description on Viator.
The trip was amazing! Our guide, Mario, was outstanding, delivering an extraordinary experience. The trip would not have been the same without him! The places we visited were terrific! One slight suggestion would be to lengthen the stay at each stop, as there were too much to explore.
