Nice and South of France tour

Hoping there are no tours in Nice right now. The Fall South of France tours end in Nice on Thursdays and Fridays

Our My Way France tour ended just this past Sunday, and there aren't any others starting until September, I think. I believe all our tour members were leaving to come back home within a couple days of the tour ending, or they were heading to other destinations outside France.

Yes, thank you, Celeste. I admit that one of the first things I thought of when we got the news (belatedly; our power was out much of yesterday because of major storms) was concern for our RS friends. What terrible terrible news.

Hi everyone,

Thank you all for your concern about our travelers. We do not currently have any tours in Nice at this time. And, as far as we know, there have been no reports of any of our tour members being in Nice when this tragedy occurred. The next tour that arrives in Nice will not be there until next Wednesday ~ a South France Tour, and then another tour, a France MyWay, arrives there next Friday. After that we have no tours going there until September. We are in contact with both those tours and are doing anything we can to assist the tour members, address their concerns and help the Guide in anyway possible. We have informed all our guides that if they need any assistance with their tours we will be there to help them. This is a very tragic situation that again has happened in France. Our thoughts and prayers now are with all the victims, their families and the people of France. Rick has offered some of his own personal and reflective insight about this event in a video posted on his blog.
