Great experience on tour but uncomfortable ride
Tara_J, Dec 2024
Alexis was a good guide. Took us everywhere. Only problem he was too fast to and from the gorges. So my kids felt like vomiting at the way the big vehicle was swaying from side to side. So if you have motion sickness he is not the driver. But for this he was really good!

Thank you Tara
Yes It’s mountains roads, you was feel I drive fast but I drive at the speed limit , when you are motion sickness the seats at the back is not for them because is they swaying a lot much more than the front 😉 but next time I show you the place in my region with the roads more comfortable
Many good things for you and your family

Gorgeous, Gorge

A wonderful private tour with the next level guide Alex, who was very friendly, informative and a fun to talk to. Visited numerous other places besides gorge itself. Make sure that if you want to see lavender fields it’s before July 20, after that it’s all cut. The trip is slightly physically demanding but we were able to catch a little nap on the way back. worth every penny.

Enjoyable tour!

Ben was a fantastic tour guide. He took the time to understand how much time we wanted to spend at each stop, he did little things like getting us coffee and refilling water bottles and having little snack treats that went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and enjoyed our tour. We highly recommend!
Great tour

We had a GREAT experience with Alex as our tour guide! He had soo much information on each of the stops that we went to and was really excited to share with us his favorites. He gave us more than enough time to explore each spot, and was always on time to pick up! Would definitely recommend to anyone who’s coming to Nice!!!!
