Antibes Absinthe Museum and Walking Tour

  • Antibes Absinthe Museum and Walking Tour
From 115
Try saying “Antibes absinthe” 3x fast after a tour of Antibes and a taste of absinthe.
Nestled between Cannes and Nice, Antibes is a seaside village sprinkled with megayachts and ornate terraces. Pass by the Antibes Cathedral, the Picasso Museum, and the Marché Provençal on a guided walking tour before venturing into the market to browse on your own. Then, head to the Absinthe Museum to learn more about this chartreuse anise-flavored spirit — often referred to as The Green Fairy — and get a taste of the curious libation that some say might give you a brand new set of wings.

Shore Things are fully refundable to the original form of payment. However, please note that Shore Things are only fully refundable if they are canceled within 48 hours prior to the booked Shore Thing taking place, unless stated otherwise in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section. If you fail to either (a) cancel within 48 hours of the booked Shore Thing (or alternative time period as may be stated in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section), or (b) show up for a booked Shore Thing, you will be charged for 100% of the Shore Thing price. 

If you make a cancellation prior to the first day of your voyage and within 48 hours (unless otherwise stated in the tour details) of your Shore Thing, you will be refunded to the original form of payment after midnight Eastern Standard Time (EST) on the day of cancellation.

If you make another purchase prior to midnight EST, after canceling a booking eligible for a refund, the credit from the canceled booking will be applied to your new booking. Therefore, you’ll only be charged for the price difference between the canceled and new experience. If you have remaining temporary credit left on your account after you’ve made another experience purchase, the remaining credit will be refunded to your original form of payment after midnight EST.

If you cancel a Shore Thing during your voyage and are eligible for a refund, a credit will be applied to your folio and not to your original form of payment.


Shore Things departure times and/or meeting locations are subject to change. We will make every effort to notify Sailors in advance via the Sailor App of any tour departure and/or meeting changes.
