    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.

    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%!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
