Walk on the famous Croisette in Cannes

Arrive in Cannes and walk the famous Croisette Boulevard, by the Film Festival Palace, designer shops and smart sandy beaches. Embellished by Palm trees and fine sandy beaches, famous cafés, elegant shops and deluxe hotels have made Cannes one of the most famous cities of the French Riviera. Of course, the film festival is of world reputation so you will have the opportunity to see where it all takes place towards the Conference center. For the most, your time here will be spent discovering the town and enjoying great shopping possibilities.

Then, visit the charming small town of Antibes

Enjoy a drive through the countryside as we move on to visit Antibes, an enjoyable old town of the French Riviera, that houses one of the most famous Picasso collection. The town’s port is located below its fortifications, with luxurious yachts and brightly painted fishing boats. In the 1500s, Antibes’ Fort Carré, which now dominates the port, was the last French stronghold before the Italian border.

Antibes has plenty of little streets to explore and you will certainly marvel as you admire the world’s biggest private yachts in Port Vauban and the largest marina on the French Mediterranean Sea the area being coined Billionaires Quay. Follow your tour guide on a walking tour and enjoy some free time for personal discovery.

Finally, visit Juan Les Pins

Located on the other side of Cap d'Antibes peninsula, this more recently developed resort has been a popular destination since the early 20th century when it hosted such celebrities as Ernest Hemingway, Scott Fitzgerald, Picasso or Charlie Chaplin. The development of the resort was mostly due to Frank-Jay Gould (son of financier Jay Gould) who invested in Hotels (Le Provençal) or Casino (Juan Les Pins).

After the visit, it will be time to return to your Port of Call in Villefranche sur Mer.

We had a very fun day with Matt to Mont Saint-Mitchel. Matt is an excellent tour guide & he cared for his clients very much. He's an on time person. We learned a lot about the history of Saint-Mitchel via Matt. He made sure we have enough time browsing this beautiful UNESCO. We definitely recommend friends & family this tour. Thank you Matt

Pascal was, above all, a smiling whirlwind of energy from the very start — bursting with knowledge, passion, and just the right amount of dramatic flair. He painted the horror of the Omaha Beach invasion so vividly that we could practically hear the chaos, then marched us through the bunkers at Pointe du Hoc like we were on a mission ourselves. And before we even caught our breath, he had already catapulted us back to Bayeux at invasion speed. A legend in tour‑guide form. Thanks from Croatian Team😉

Our Normandy D-Day tour was well worth it and we so enjoyed our tour guide Matt. He made the tour engaging, entertaining and informative. The tour was just the right size and a half day was perfect for us. It would have been much harder to get around to the sites and understand each without the information that Matt was constantly sharing. There was hardly a time that Matt was not telling us what/how/when of what we were looking at. Thanks Matt!
