Saint Tropez,

Depart the pier with your local escort for the scenic, approximately 1 hour and 45-minute drive to Saint Tropez, one of the best-known towns on the French Riviera. St. Tropez became internationally-renowned during the 1950s as the setting for such films as And God Created Woman, which starred French actress Brigitte Bardot and forever changed this once-sleepy fishing village into a legendary seaside resort. Today, Saint Tropez is a favourite summer destination for international jet-setters and luminaries. En route, learn about the different things to do and see during your free time in Saint Tropez. Upon arrival at the drop-off point, begin your guided tour of this wonderful little fishing port or begin the time at your leisure. 3 to 4 hours free time will be given.
