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.

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.Elizabeth Cunningham

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.

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%!

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.

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.Sandra Wallace

Enjoyed the Rothschild Villa and Gardens, Grasse and Eze. Not Monte Carlo nor Cannes. Nor Nice except old Nice was nice. Most of the food inclusions were good. Not enough local tours guides like with the Italian Riviera one last year. Italian Riviera one on a scale of 1 - 10, an 11 on everything including our tour manager. This trip 1 - 10, a 5 including the tour manager. We only had one local guide who I can't remember the name who walked us through old Nice. She was very good and helpful. I give her a 10. Not so much the tour manager. The bus was excellent as well as the driver. The limousine accommodations were top notch. Had problems with getting replies from Jason Gomes when trying to get information on adding Paris extension. Once I said it was RUDE not to get any replies as we were in anticipation, trying to book a tour of Monet's Home and Garden. We were in danger of this day tour getting fully booked. Then he started replying. Before that, just fell on deaf ears. Jay Fehan in contrast was fantastic, very helpful, professional, quick responses, personable. Love Jay.

Enjoyed the tour however, our experience at the airport in Paris and Nice was not positive. We were dropped off at the wrong terminal. We had more than enough time to make our flight back to LAX but due to the lack of work ethic of the Air France personnel, we just made the flight. In addition to the incompetence of the Air France personnel, we also experienced airport personnel that were very rude and not helpful.

The tour was very good and the tour manager was excellent. The trip to the gardens at the Villa Ephrussi de Rothchild was one of the highlights as well as the visit to the Fragonard Perfumery where we learned how perfume is made. One of the best features of this tour is that a lot of free time to explore was factored into the itinerary. It also was very helpful that on the first full day of the trip we were given transit cards and taken as a group on the tram to be shown how easy it is to use public transportation to get around in Nice. Many members of the group took advantage of the tram and bus to visit sites that were not part of the itinerary. For this reason the location of the hotel was excellent.

Loved the hotel location across from The Promenade and beach. The tasting tour at the beginning was so helpful. We got to use our train cards which came in handy for getting around in free time and the tour of old town was also helpful in navigating the city. All the treats that were provided on the tour were much appreciated too. We really had nothing to complain about . The guide pointed us tin the right direction to catch the bus to the Matisse and Chagall Museums which were wonderful. Because of a very rainy day in Monaco we had a change of plans and opted to visit The Oceanographic Museum. What an amazing experience and we were thinking it would be just like the aquariums at home. It was so much more than that. I think the itinerary should provide a more detailed description . We were very impressed especially with the immersion exhibit and if it hadn’t been for the weather we wouldn’t have known what we missed! Thank you for a memorable trip made even better because it included transportation from The FloGris to and from the airport. Gail was a delight.

This was by far the best tour I’ve experienced! Our tour guide was excellent, and the daily agenda took us to some of the most beautiful places on earth! The exception was Monte Carlo. If you didn’t want to gamble - and virtually no one did, there was no place to go and nothing to do. The only shops were high end, catering to the exceedingly rich. If our hotel had had air conditioning, it would have been perfect. But nights were miserable, even with the fan we got from the hotel and the patio doors cracked open in hopes of a breeze. Otherwise, we were in a perfect location, close to the beach, old town, restaurants, and shops! Depending on the accommodations - AC is a must! - I’d go on this trip a second time in a heart beat!
