Description:

The idyllic countryside beyond the glitzy coastal stretch of the French Riviera is just as charming as the seaside. Embark on a full-day tour to visit vibrant Cannes, delightful Saint Paul de Vence, and the enchanting medieval village of Gourdon, perched near the picturesque Gorges du Loup.

Start your day in Cannes, exploring one of the most famous promenades in the world—La Croisette. For 1.8 miles (3 km), follow the curve of the bay as you stroll beside flowering gardens, palm trees and umbrella pines, and sublime sand beaches. Find the Palais des Festivals, where the famous Cannes International Film Festival takes place every year. A-listers and celebrities from around the globe gather here each year, and thousands of films are screened. Don’t forget to see the handprints of your favorite stars in front of and around the building.

Leave the sparkling luxury of the coast and drive through the Provençal landscape to the elegant city of Grasse, world capital of the perfume industry. You can choose to visit a perfumery with the guide or explore the old town at your leisure. Continue to the hilltop village of Gourdon, a harmonious ensemble of white-stone homes clustered around a feudal castle that offers panoramic views over the coast.

End your day at the magnificent Gorges du Loup, a canyon dotted with waterfalls that plummet to an emerald river below. Here you can marvel at the French Riviera’s real treasure—its spectacular natural beauty.
