Grasse
Driving to our first experience: Grace Village. Start your tour by visiting Grasse, listed in November 2018 on the list of "Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity" adopted by "UNESCO", for its know-how linked to the perfume industry. Stroll through the old streets of Grasse known for the workshops of the tannery industry in the Middle Ages. Then treat yourself to a visit to the historic "FRAGONARD" factory, one of the 60 companies that manufacture fragrances and essences, to understand the process of changing flowers into perfume. The rare flowers of the Pays de Grasse (lavender, myrtle, jasmine, rose, wild orange blossom, mimosa) make Grasse the world capital of perfume.
Gourdon
After this fragrant break, head for this small village "GOURDON" perched at 758 meters, between the Alps and the Mediterranean Sea, discover this medieval fortress and its beautiful castle built in the 8th century by the SARAZINS. Discern the strategic advantages, (the control of all "the valley of the wolf", the Mediterranean coast and the access to the Alps), to understand the fight for the control of this fortress, between the medieval powers until the German armies during the World War II.

5.00Nabil is a wonderful tour guide who brings the medieval villages around Nice to life with warmth, humor, and deep local knowledge. His tours through gems like Saint-Paul-de-Vence, and Tourrettes-sur-Loup reveal not just the beauty of their stone streets and panoramic views but also their stories, traditions, and artisanal treasures. With Nabil’s engaging storytelling and easygoing pace, visitors enjoy an authentic glimpse into Provence’s charm — from mountain-top vistas to hidden craft shops — making the journey both relaxing and unforgettable.
Greate tour ! A must do!

5.00The trip was a perfect escape into medieval scenery for the day. With our guide Nabil, the day became not only interesting but also enriching. Surrounded by beautiful landscapes, our group learned so much from Nabil—not only about the area, but also about the region's history, perfume traditions, the Alps' nature, and general French customs. His informative yet humorous style made the experience all the more enjoyable. These villages truly capture the beautiful essence of French history, and they're definitely something you don’t want to miss. A perfect day overall!

5.00Excellent tour. Our guide gave excellent background information about each village as well as the best path to take in each and where to find the things of interest. You had time for shopping and/or eating a snack in most of the villages. We made several photo stops along the way to take pictures of the upcoming village. Great way to spend the day!
Highly Recommended

5.00We spend two weeks touring France, and the Medieval Villages Tour was the highlight of our experience. Our guide Nadil was excellent, as was the rich history of the villages we visited. They were beautiful, intriguing, and entertaining. I own a tour company in Colorado guiding tours through Rocky Mountain National Park. I know what guests want to experience. This tour provided exactly what we had hoped for, and Nadil was personable, knowledgeable, and entertaining. I highly recommend this tour.
