St-Tropez Day Tour from Cannes Small-Group and Shore Excursion
Description
En route to Saint-Tropez, drive to St Maxime and take a 20-minute boat trip (9€) to explore the town on your own (available from May to mid-September). During your free time, discover the famous harbor, beautiful beaches, and the lively Place des Lys, where artists, celebrities, and journalists meet. Stroll through the picturesque streets and enjoy the many local restaurants. Saint-Tropez has a fascinating history, evolving from a 15th-century military stronghold to a quiet fishing village in the early 20th century, before becoming a hotspot for the jet set. On the way back, stop at Port Grimaud, the “Little Venice” of the Riviera, with its canals, tiny bridges, and charming squares. For cruisers: A 50% refund will be granted upon request in case of last-minute port call cancellation.

Stop at the postcard-pretty town of Port Grimaud. Dubbed ‘Little Venice’, this charming place is famous for its quaint canals, little bridges and attractive houses.
Continue to the glamorous port city of St-Tropez, where you'll watch the million-dollar yachts gliding in and out of port and stroll along the lovely beachfront past stylish terrace cafés and trendy boutiques.

It's a little bit boring since we went during the low season in December. There was a lot of driving around but not a lot of things to see.
The vehicle was comfortable and driver/ guide was friendly and informative and was very willing to assist. He spoke good English and had an interesting background. He was a good driver and timely.
These tours should be explained as transportation only. You are picked up, dropped at a village, site or destination for a few hours and then picked up and driven back. No historical information or specific site information provided. The drivers are lovely and chat along the way, but that is what you are paying for. Much better to pay for a private guided tour-money well spent, unless you have no interest in history, etc.
There wasn't much to see in Saint Tropez, unfortunately, as we were stuck in a lot of traffic getting there. However, there were many beautiful yachts and plenty of nice restaurants to choose from. The shopping was not great, as evidenced by the lack of women carrying shopping bags. We could have skipped this tour, as we enjoyed Monaco much more.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback! I'm sorry to hear that your experience in Saint Tropez wasn't as enjoyable as expected due to traffic. It's great to know that you appreciated the beautiful yachts and the variety of restaurants available. Your comments about the shopping experience and comparison to Monaco are helpful, and we'll take them into account as we look for ways to improve our tours. We hope to have the opportunity to make your next experience with us even better.
Beautiful places. Grimaud is amazing and St. Tropez is a dream. Tarte Tropezienne is delicious!! Driver was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable
Bonjour, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience on TripAdvisor. We are glad to to see you enjoyed your tour with your guide. See you next time ! Kind regards,
Saint Tropez is a beautiful place. But no fault of our driver/guide, our experience was uncomfortable. We had a husband, wife and 9 year old in the van with us. For the entire 2 hour each way drive they spent the whole drive simultaneously conducting endless phone call conversations on their speaker phones. We couldn't hear most of the the local information our guide was trying to pass on to us. I wish I would hade taken the fairy. But there should be a policy where the driver should announce to the guest before the trip starts about being considerate to the other guests on board.

We enjoyed this tour alot! Micah the guide, was very informative! Very pleasant experience! We were able to see alot in one day. He was clear about picking us up. I would recommend this tour to anyone!
We are a group of 8 New Zealanders staying in Antibes. Xavier collected us from our AirBNB and drove us to St.Tropez.We visited local vineyards and sampled wine at Minuty Vineyard. Xavier was an excellent driver, very informative, great commentary on local history. We would highly recommend a tour with Xavier. The girls enjoyed him so much, we wanted to take him home !
Absolutely spectacular tour and guide - We were captivated by Yann’s genuine passion and love for all things history and culture of his native home, France. We booked our first tour for the Monte Carlo, Monaco & Eze and Yann was such a great host that we booked him for a day trip to St Tropez. He genuinely made our trip incredible and that much more memorable in so many ways! Highly recommend Yann as a guide if you want history, humour, and someone who really cares about your experience. Highly highly recommend him and will refer everyone we know travelling from Canada to beautiful Nice to book and request Yann! Group of 3 ( mother, father and daughter)
Not a good value for the money. The driver was not informative. He just drove and dropped us off and then picked us up.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback which helps us to improve. We'll see why you didn't get enough information and make sure this doesn't happen. I hope to see you again on one of our tours.
