Tour description

Dear travelers!

If you would like to discover a charming and authentic town, then Villefranche Sur Mer from Nice is a perfect opportunity for you!

We'll meet in the port of Nice (at the top of the stairs of the tram stop "Port Lympia").

We will then take a bus to Villefranche (7 min. from Nice, 1.70 €).

You will be inspired while exploring magic colourful streets of the Medieval-like Old Town, admiring the best panoramic views and having the most romantic lunch (or dinner) with a beautiful sea view after the tour.

We finish the tour in Villefranche Sur Mer (5 minutes from the train station and 9 minutes from the bus stop). You can return to Nice by bus or by train. The last bus leaves Villefranche at 11pm. 

P.S. I will show you all the secret places (loved by locals) and you'll get my personal list of tips and recommendations about all the little towns and villages of the Cote d'Azure.

(There is so much more to see than just Nice and Cannes!)

It was a delight to be shown around beautiful Villefranche by Jenny. She was very knowledgeable about the sights, background information, history and even films shot there and local celebrities living there Nearly every turning of the Old Town is picture perfect. Ditto the coast and beach It makes a great day trip from nearby Nice either via the bus or train. The more spacious and tranquil atmosphere of this small town is a refreshing change from the city I highly recommend and definitely a highlight of my trip Jenny's enthusiasm and love for Villefranche is very evident and I can certainly understand why

Jenny was so lovely and friendly. This tour is something a bit different because it takes you out of Nice to a more peaceful and calm area. The small group size meant you could chat to other travellers. Jenny was so knowledgeable and did a fantastic job and gave great recommendations!

It was our best guruwalk in the South of France. Ville Franche is a must see if you are looking to escape the very touristy areas. Jenny's passion for the region is evident in plenty. We loved her energy, her smile and how lovingly she showed us around. What stands out about Jenny is that she is a lovely person, she cares about her guests and clearly goes above and beyond! We stopped by a beautiful cafe for coffee and cakes, talked and laughed a lot. Jenny also shared a lot of tips with us for other regions in the South of France. What was most beautiful for me was her connection with her lovely grandma Zoya who is 92 and thank you Jenny for making us a part of your life! @Grandma Zoya: Hello from Nepal, I know you wanted to see the Everest, next time I see it, I will say hello for you :) Lots of love and hugs!

Great tour with an even better guide! Not a "classic" sightseeing tour but more a quest for hidden gems!
