Saint-Tropez & Port Grimaud Tour, from Cannes
7hr & 8hr driver guided tours of Saint-Tropez and the surrounding area
Follow the red rocks of the Massif de l'Esterel to beautiful Saint-Tropez. Well known to celebrities and billionaires, over the years this small fishing village has become a veritable playground of the rich and famous.
Saint-Tropez has had a turbulent history: from a 15th century military stronghold, to a quiet fishing village in the early twentieth century, Saint-Tropez was also the first city on the coast to be liberated during World War II as part of Operation Dragoon.
After the war, it became a resort of international renown. Saint-Tropez was first a holiday destination for artists of French cinema, but soon became a favourite of the world's elite and 'jet set' of the 1950's.
