Great way to visit St. Tropez while seeing a bit of the Riviera coastline
We were staying in Nice for a few days and wanted to visit St. Tropez. The land route required a bus connection that would have been, to us, a bit complicated. The boat trip was a relaxing way to do the trip while at the same time seeing beautiful views of the coast.

We were disappointed that...
We were disappointed that there was no guide even though the preview said it was guided. That definitely needs to be clarified. We could have bought our own ticket for the ferry at a cheaper price.

Ferry Cancelled due to local workers on strike
No fault of the tour provider, but the ferry was cancelled due to a strike. My understanding is that strikes happen fairly regularly here. Leaving this review in case someone has a critical need to be in Saint Tropez - you might want to have a back up means of transportation.

Beautiful coastal views
The boat itself is excellent, staff were very nice and accomodating, shop was reasonable. Queuing in Nice harbour was very orderly and effective, but on the return meeting point in St tropez it wasnt very orderly and created some tension with passengers, at the location on the pier the crowd was bottlenecked at the gate instead of in a line which did not help. Otherwise the journey was calm and beautiful with lots to see, some added commentary on some important landmarks, but as it was a public ferry it was not much but absolutely fine.

Disappointed
The description of the excursion was a little deceptive as far as using “luxury”. It was not luxury by any way. You are to arrive 30 mins early, but there is no restroom. Once you board there is a restroom, but you cannot use it until the ferry leaves the dock. There were a few of us NEEDING to go. It was very crowded and hot. There was no guide as we sailed the ocean. It would have been nice to know what we were passing. Upon return there was no organization for boarding the ferry. Just everyone ruching past each other to get on and get a seat in the non air conditioned ferry. I’d choose a different way… this costs too much money for a school bus version of a ferry.

Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nice.
How much does Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $121 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nice is not rushed.
Is Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 345 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer?
+
Around 121 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nice and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Nice - St Tropez: round trip ferry boat transfer start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nice?
+
On Outty we rank every Nice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include ★ Walking Tour of Old Nice and Castle Hill, NO DIET CLUB - Unique Local Food in Nice !, Nice City Segway Sightseeing Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
