5.00A long day but worth it to see the gorge from Belvedere de la Carelle. We had plenty of time to visit Castellane and Moustiers-Sainte-Marie and also an hour at the beautiful blue lake. It would have been nice to have stopped at more of the viewpoints along the canyon. I was sitting by the window on the left side of the vehicle and had great views but it wasn’t so good for those on the other side. Mike was our guide and he did an excellent job

5.00This was a great tour. The scenery was breathtaking and our guide managed to stop in a lot of places so we could get photos. He knew all the good spots and kept us up to date with information about the area. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get out of Nice for the day. Lots of great places to grab a coffee or lunch. The weather was stunning, not a cloud in the sky which made for a very enjoyable day.
Great tour

3.00Excursion The Vernon Gorge Lately we have experienced an unacceptable situation. Indeed we had booked an excursion in French with your agency. When the minibus arrived, we found that we would be 4 Anglophones, 4 Francophones. What a surprise! The coach informs us that he will do simultaneous translation. Unfortunately, it is in English that the comments begin to change to French. Repeatedly, comments were requested to be in French first, without success. The guide was informed that we had booked a tour in French. Mario, the accompanist, did not appreciate our request at all. He stopped the vehicle and threatened to take us down by the side of the road if we did not stop demanding that the comments be in French first. This is no way to treat customers. Our day trip was ruined with an attendant like him.
