Saint-Tropez and Port Grimaud Small Group Full-Day Tour from Nice
Vineyards, coastal villages, and the glamour of the Riviera in a single unforgettable day.
This Saint-Tropez full-day tour from Nice takes you through some of the most celebrated scenery on the French Riviera, visiting the legendary town of Saint-Tropez, the picturesque waterways of Port Grimaud, and the rolling vineyards of the Var region. A professional local guide leads the journey aboard a comfortable, modern vehicle, keeping group numbers intentionally small for a more personal experience.
Saint-Tropez has long attracted artists, sailors, and travelers drawn to its old-town charm, its bustling market square, and its celebrated harbor. Beyond the postcards and the celebrity associations, it remains a working Provencal town with a distinct personality that rewards those who take the time to explore on foot.
Port Grimaud offers a striking contrast: a purpose-built village of canals and pastel facades, often called the Venice of Provence. Strolling its pedestrian bridges and waterfront lanes gives a real sense of how architecture can harmonize with the natural landscape of the southern coast.
The drive through the vineyards of the Var adds yet another layer to the day. This wine-producing corridor sits between the maritime Alps and the Mediterranean, producing some of the world's most respected rose wines, and passing through it by road is a quietly beautiful experience in itself.

Itinerary
The tour begins in Nice, where you board a comfortable small-group vehicle with your local guide. The route heads southwest along the coast and then inland toward the Var region.
The journey passes through rolling vineyard countryside between the coast and the pre-Alpine hills. Your guide introduces the wine traditions and landscape features of this productive agricultural zone.
Arrive in Port Grimaud, a planned waterfront village built in the 1960s on the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Explore its canals, pedestrian bridges, and colorful facades on a guided walk.
The main stop of the day brings you into the heart of Saint-Tropez. Visit the old port, the citadel quarter, and the Place des Lices, with time to walk independently and absorb the atmosphere of this iconic Provencal town.
After a full day on the western Riviera, the group boards the vehicle for the return journey to Nice, arriving after approximately 10 hours from departure.
