After tendering ashore, depart the pier for the brief drive via coach to Port Grimaud.

Port Grimaud

Port Grimaud was created in the 1960s as a private lagoon pleasure city with waterways for roads and yachts parked at the end of every garden. This extraordinary architectural experiment was the idea of François Spoerry who envisioned a town built in the manner of Venice with channels of water and traditional French fisherman's houses, each with a personal boat mooring space at the end of the garden. The houses are built in the tasteful old Provençal style. Upon arrival, take a pleasant guided stroll through this unique enclave, followed by a 15-20 minute motorboat cruise past exquisite homes, lovely gardens, tiny squares and bridges spanning the manmade canals.

Grimaud Village

Next, re-board your coach and proceed for a countryside drive to the village of Grimaud, and a look at the quieter side of life in the South of France.

Your reward is a serene, rustic village with warm, ochre-coloured houses grouped around an 11th-century church. Until the end of the 19th century, the Castle of Grimaud was the command post overlooking the Gulf of Grimaud. The remains of a medieval castle are an added attraction, as are the stunning views from its hilltop location.

Medieval streets lined with walled gardens, little squares set with dripping fountains and picturesque houses all await your exploration.

St. Tropez

Although St. Tropez is world-renowned as an ultra-chic haunt of the rich and famous, this charming seaside resort is also a genuine Provençal village with a rich cultural heritage.

After tendering ashore, meet your guide at the pier station, then take a guided walking tour to discover the architectural and traditional beauty of St. Tropez. As you proceed along the old harbour, often painted by famous artists, see an 1866 statue of Bailli de Suffren, seaside houses with vaulted basements that used to be boat garages on quai Jean-Jaurès, and the famous Sénéquier Teahouse.

Next, your walking tour continues on to the Town Hall Square for a look back at a time when St. Tropez was an independent republic so rigorously well-defended by its inhabitants that it was never conquered.

Wine Tasting

Your tour concludes at an intimate village terrace, where an expert oenologist greets your arrival and introduces you to the world of wine and winemaking on the St. Tropez Peninsula. Learn the three techniques, sight, smell and taste, as well as the art of using the right words to describe these sensations. The expert then puts your senses to the test in an interactive game of flavour-detection. Learn how to discern different types of wine, and match food with the correct wine.

Following this unique experience, you may return directly to the pier or spend the afternoon in town at your leisure.

Experience Gassin and Ramatuelle in the Var region in the south of France, both beautiful hilltop villages set high above the Mediterranean Sea and the peninsula of Saint Tropez. The villages were originally created to escape the pirates who terrorized the local Mediterranean waters. Gassin is believed to be one of the oldest villages in the south of France with first written evidence dating back to 1234. Ramatuelle is located above the famous Pampelonne beach, famous for its role in the Allied landing and also renowned as one of the main beaches of Saint Tropez.

After tendering ashore, depart via coach for a scenic drive through the heart of the St. Tropez Peninsula.

Gassin

Your first stop is at the picturesque village of Gassin. Its shape and size is reminiscent of a small ship perched on a summit. The original name of Garcin dates back to earlier times to the 10th century. The Knights Templar is thought to have built the castle on the rock and you can see traces of the Templiers on the ancient walls in some of the streets and doors. Once a Moorish stronghold, today Gassin is a chic and popular tourist destination. It is known as 'the most beautiful village of France' and has an unrivalled panoramic view of the Golfe de St. Tropez, the Iles d'Or and the surrounding hills.

During your visit, walk the maze of alleyways, sometimes linked by stairs, and take in the cosy atmosphere of the village. Leaving Gassin's hilltop location, proceed to its lower-lying neighbour of Ramatuelle.

Ramatuelle

Larger than Gassin but just as old, Ramatuelle is surrounded by some of the best Côte de Provence vineyards. Upon arrival, commence your guided walking tour. The guide points out the area's most interesting sites and the main highlights of the area as you proceed through the twisting arcade of streets abounding with arts and crafts shops. Old houses, recently restored, huddle against the ancient town wall. Ocher facades and pastel shutters are decorated with jasmine, honeysuckle and bougainvillea, a feast for the senses.

Of special interest is a monument to the members of the Special Services who died in World War II, and the ivy-covered tomb of French actor Gerard Philippe, who died in 1959 and is buried in Ramatuelle's cemetery.

Following your visit, re-board the coach for the drive back to St. Tropez Harbour.

All this in the hands of more than 50 operators that you can see working live, as this is the only factory of Mallorca pearls that can still be visited on the island. The history of the Mallorca pearls, dates back to the early twentieth century, when Japan interrupts its production of cultured pearls because of WW1. In order to meet the international demand, the Pearl production is introduced in Mallorca, in small workshops where the natural process of the oyster is artisanal produced. The store exhibition, with more than 2.500 sqm is considered the largest exhibition of pearls in the country.

Azienda Agrituristica Leda' d'Ittiri

The estate is located just a short distance away from the frenetic town of Alghero and from wonderful white-sand beaches, at the feet of Monte Doglia, a mountain from whose peak it is possible to admire the bay of Porto Conte and the promontory of Capo Caccia. The estate consists of 18 hectares (44.5 acres) of olive orchards and vineyards that are carefully cultivated by the owners as if they were the garden of their farmhouse.

Antonella and Annamaria are two ladies with an ambitious business project. Together as mother and daughter, they belong to an ancient Sardinian noble household, the only heraldic coat of arms within the Sardinian wine sector. They have become passionate, expert entrepreneurs who are able not only to look after each detail of their business, but also to personally keep up with the issues of the cultivation. The result has come up to their expectations.

Given the favorable location of the estate, the owners have integrated the agricultural activities with a tourist/cultural project, aimed at promoting the area and its products. The business philosophy consists in producing small quantities in favor of a higher quality and in offering a high-level hospitality to those visitors who appreciate the tranquility and the fragrance of the countryside.

Following your wine tasting, re-board the coach for the return drive to the pier in Alghero. En route, pass by the entrance to the Nuraghe Palmavera and learn some interesting facts about the archaeological site from your guide.

This fortified town, founded in the 12th century by the Marine Republic of Genoa, is situated on a promontory overlooking vast panoramas of the Gulf of Asinara to the west and views of the Gallura peaks to the east. The historical centre of this village is built on a tall crag that slopes into the sea, is shaped like an upside-down cone and offers wonderful panoramic views.

The village was founded by the Doria family in the 12th century, and was originally called Castelgenovese. When the Spanish arrived in 1448, it became known as Castel Aragonese.

Experience the exquisite beauty of the French Riviera during this picturesque sightseeing drive through the Grande, Middle, and Lower Corniches. Between Nice and Menton the pine-forested Alpes drop precipitously to the sea, creating one of the most dramatic and inspiring views in Europe. Carved into the mountainside are three roads known as the Corniches.
