Tout guide was very knowledgeable about the areas we visited . .

Would neever use Collette again. My wife asked for an aisle seat because she's handicapped and walks with cane. I said I would pay extra for aisle seat for her. They assigned her to a middle seat on one side of plsne. I was piut across the plane in a window seat a couple rows up from me. At least 3 couples on our trip were assigned an aisle seat without asking. My wife called Air France and paid $488 for an aisle seat on the 4 flights. She said she was vegetarian but airline was never notified. Obviously., Collette doesn't want handicapped to travel with them. Airline said no one asked for aisle seat for her.

Enjoyed Cannes and Ephrussi De Rothschild and the trip to St Paul de Vence. French Riviera is amazingly peaceful and beautiful. Walking in the evening when the sun was setting may become my favorite memories.

Perfect vacation, well planned, saw all the sites, great tour guide!

Great trip. Good pace to actitivies and our guide Petra just made the. trip very fun. Very knowledgeable

Had the best time! Couldn't believe all the things we saw and the foods we ate! Loved it!

The hotel was lovely and in a great location. The Tour Guide, Petra, was fabulous! She was well informed, organized and engaging. All planned activities were fun and there was just enough time on our own. The food, of course, was excellent.

Our tour manager was fantastic, sites and places visited were amazing, right amount of time at each stop on tour.

Room for improvement especially wrt hotel

Our tour guide, Fernando, was excellent. I enjoyed the combination of a structured activity and free time in Nice.

I liked nice france not i.pressed with Monaco or Cannes but ok for a day trip

Accommodations could have been better. No restaurant/lounge, no ice machines, tv in room worked on an occasional night (staff couldn’t figure it out). Most of the tours were pretty good. Our tour director, Val, was fabulous, fun and knowledgeable.

Beautiful trip and all ran smoothly. Tour director was fabulous.

After a rough start due to Delta, Petra made the trip exceptional

Tour Manager was not as skillful as we've experienced on other tourts.

The extension flight from Nice to Paris was a huge problem. The airport did finally fix the problem but it was extremely stressful. The airport said our flight was not even listed. They had to find a flight for 6 of us. The other 2 came into Paris so much later and one of those people did not have his bag until the 2nd dsy in Paris. What a nightmare!

Would prefer direct flights even if costs more. I am 68 yes old and the fatigue caused by not direct flights, is too much. Really turned me off. Also our flight for excursion to Paris was not booked!!! We were all separated and had to book our own flights.. Very poor on your part.

There was very little Stravinsky tour on the "tour". Not a bit of history, economics, culture or even restaurant recommendations. We were taken to places and told where and when to meet back and told to go ,"discover"on our own. We've been to 45 countries mostly with Grand Circle and we know it's supposed to be a lot more guided. Go my yourself and save the money if you want to look it up yourself online.

There were a few scheduling glitches with the transfer from Nice to Paris. Would have liked tour guides / manager to use the whisper device more often.

Absolutely everything went smoothly, even the weather cooperated.

What a wonder ful experience!!

Amazing tour guide (BenVale). Beautiful hotel with great central location, 5 star food - all around trip of a lifetime. Loved all the locations we visited, Caanes, Monte Carlo, Rotheshield mansion and gardens, and mu husbands favorite St Paul de Vence.

I loved staying in one place all week and doing day trips to interesting venues.

The first week in Nice, France on the Riviera was wonderful. Then went on the extension to Paris with 8 others from our group. The first day in Paris Myself and another man were robbed in the Metro leaving us with no cash. The rest of the time we used the Hop-On Hop Off bus to tour Paris which was much safer. Collette should not take elderly people on the "Metro" which is a haven for thieves. Metro is a dangerous means of transportation in Paris. Googled it and crime on Metro us up 200%!

Great job tour manager was very knowledgeable

Christian is the reason the tour was so enjoyable. His attention to requests and needs for help were second to none...... he's a great tour guide!!!! Vincenzo (bus driver) did an excellent job; don't know how he was able to navigate those tight streets but he did a great job.

Everything was well planned out. Tour guide and bus driver were excellent.

Had great time. Nice pace great place to see

Tour manager was exceptional. Right amount of travel by bus and walking. Enjoyed the hotel. Great experience for my first trip to Europe.

Beautiful trip! Everything was perfect! I enjoyed all of trip.. Our tour guide Stephanie was excellent. She shared lots of information, was charming and funny too! Can’t think of any area to improve.

Incredible Tour. Great people. Great Value. Everything was organized and fun. The tour guide went above and beyond to make sure that everyone was comfortable and enjoying the trip to the fullest!

The tour leader was excellent with a wide knowledge of the area and showed us places not even on the itinerary. Food and tours outstanding and we could walk to the Sea.

I don’t give 5wish we had time to shop in the towns we visited

Overall, the trip was very good. The hotel was was very nice, comfortable and clean and a good location. I wish there had been more included meals for two reasons....1. it allows people to get to know each other faster and 2. it makes the dining experience much more authentic. It was very disappointing that the Carnival was cancelled, but I know that is not Collette's fault. Some of the markets we went to were really very junky and it would have been nice to have had our boat ride in a much nicer boat. Although we visited a lot of places I felt like a lot of our free time was left wandering and shopping and although I love to shop I would have liked to have known more things we could have seen. For example, one place we stopped had a free Santon museum and also the Fragonand sp?? museum, we did walk through them but that was just because we stumbled upon them. Our guide was wonderful, the bus trips were wonderful, there were just some days that I wish the content had been more of an cultural experience.

We had plenty of free time, in addition to escorted tours with both US and local guides

My favorite experience was making perfume at the Froganard factory. All the day trips were fun.

We foung the tours rough and not for Senior Citzens. The two tours we were on the alloted free time could have been shorter, Although we some what enjoyed Monaco. and why the Casino was part of the tour was not enjoyable for us.

Fragonard perfumerie was my highlight.

All cities were great

Monte Carlo and Changing of the Guard at Monaco

The scenery was beautiful I loved the open air markets in each city-St, Tropez being my least favorite I did not go the Cannes as Petra though the trip would be too strenuous for me. But I enjoyed the extra day in Nice, taking a spa day at the Spa Splendid.

Rothschild estate; beautiful home, but I appreciated the gardens more! Luncheon was excellent. Also Cezanne's workshop

The sights were amazing and the group I was with was a lot of fun.

enjoyed

All attractions that we got to see were incredible.

The tour was exactly as explained in the write-up, all expectations were met, had a very nice trip from start to finish.

Good tour. Good service. All very good

The overall tour was excellent as it hit all of the major towns that we were interested in. Hard to say a favorite as they were all amazing but probably our day in Cannes and Antibes as well as the tour of the Rothschild estate was our favorite.

Free time at Nice Flower Market. Day in Monaco and Monte Carlo

Had my 88-year old mother and I had any idea about how active and demanding this trip was --- we would never have signed up. It was much too physically demanding for her, and she struggled to keep up. I, myself, had no problem with the activity level, and would have thoroughly enjoyed the trip, had I not been worried about my mother. I would definitely travel again with Collette --- but, urge you to ensure that the trip fitness requirements are made very clear from the beginning.

The final lunch in a French Villa was fabulous!

Monte Carlo and walking along the race course for the Grand Prix.

Coach travels to the several villages was a big plus..
