gwesq Posted June 2, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Excited that the tour descriptions are now showing and able to reserve. BUT - the Preview of the tours do not necessarily match the description. For example, on this tour, the preview talks of discovering the Picasso Museum and the Cathedral. Sounds like a visit is in order there. Nope. Just a pass by. Not much "discovering" that way. THis is just one example I've noticed so far. Here's what's on the site: Preview: ANTIBES OLD TOWN WALK & ABSINTHE TASTING "Enjoy a walking tour of the charming old town of Antibes. Discover Antibes' 5th century Cathedral, as well as the Picasso Museum, which is housed in the Medieval Castle of Grimaldi. You'll also visit to the Absinthe Museum as well as enjoying a tasting of typical foods such as olives, tapenade and locally produced stuffed bread." But then the description: "Stroll past the Antibes Cathedral, originally built in the 5th century on the site of an old pagan temple. The church you see today mostly dates to the 13th century, with the Italian-style façade dating to the 18th century. Also pass the Picasso Museum, housed within the medieval castle of Grimaldi, so named for the Grimaldis of Monaco, who once owned the stronghold. In 1946, just after World War II, Picasso was invited to use the castle as his workshop. He left behind some of his greatest masterpieces, now on display alongside other artists’ works. Pause to see the museum’s exterior before making your way to the Provencal market a kaleidoscope of foods, herbs, and trinkets. Inhale the delicate fragrance of lavender and the tantalizing aroma of cheese as you wander through this busy marketplace at the top of the town. Enjoy time on your own " And although "Absinthe tasting" is in the title, nothing in the description about Absinthe (I'm a fan of Sazerac's, made with Absinthe).
