Visitor comments
- "Very friendly and warm tour around this beautiful place. Very interesting regarding nature, culture and then of course olives :)" - Trip Advisor
- "A small detour from the center of Grasse was totally worth the trip. We had absolutely no idea of the process of olive oils and the guided tour was fun, enchanting and educational. The olive oils are superb and we can't wait to use them for dishes and deserts." - Trip Advisor
- "A little difficult to reach without a car, but it is worth the time ... very different from the noisy Cannes (where we were stationed) or the "capital of perfumes" (Grasse), which is nearby. strongly recommended to people who want to see (and hear) something that you don't meet every day" - Trip Advisor
