Product Info

Discover the beauty of the French Alps and explore villages dating back to Roman times on a guided tour from Nice or Cannes. Enjoy a tranquil day in the mountains, and learn about the local customs and traditions from your guide.

Start your tour from Nice or Cannes and visit Gourdon, one of the most beautiful medieval villages in France with its Roman ruins. Its dramatic perched vantage point earned it the name "the Eagle's nest".

Next, head to Gréolières, overlooking the Loup valley at an altitude of 800 meters. The village is dominated by the remains of the medieval village "Hautes Gréolières" where you can admire St Etienne's Chapel. The residents used to take refuge in the heights to escape invasions or epidemics.

Continue to Coursegoules, perched at 1000 meters and more than 3,000 years old. As you stroll through the village, discover its architectural delights including buildings dating back to the 13th century. From the remains of the ramparts, enjoy a glorious view over the whole valley.

Stop for tea in a boutique run by local artisans, selling hand-made crafts and baked goods. Finally, return to Nice or Cannes via the magical Col de Vence pass, which offers spectacular views of the French Riviera.
