Tour of my Dreams

What a wonderful experience with the best tour guide! She took us to three different cities and was very knowledgeable. Aside from her intelligence, she was so pleasant to be around and had wonderful energy throughout the entirety of our journey. She made us so comfortable and gave us wonderful recommendations! Because of her personality, I felt like I was on a trip with a friend. Can’t recommend this experience enough!

Best way to explore Cannes

If you’re visiting Cannes, don’t miss this walking tour! Our guide Sarit, a talented screenwriter, brought the city to life with fascinating stories, cinematic insights, and local history that you simply won’t find in a guidebook. She was the perfect combination of professional, creative, and genuinely passionate about Cannes and the film industry. The storytelling kept everyone engaged from start to finish, and she happily answered questions while tailoring the tour to our group’s interests. Despite the scorching July heat, she remained upbeat, flexible, and accommodating, making adjustments to keep everyone as comfortable as possible. Her enthusiasm never faded, and it was clear he truly loves what she does. This was one of the highlights of our visit to the French Riviera. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an entertaining, informative, and memorable experience in Cannes. Five stars!

A lovely trip around Cannes in a fabulous red Ferrari

We had a lovely ride around Cannes with a great driver Franke who was a very friendly and informative driver. He took photographs so that we could remember our great experience. We had no problem finding the pick up point and Franke was there waiting at the specified time. Would definitely recommend it if you call at Cannes like we did on a cruise.

Excellent tour of the French Riviera with an exceptional guide

Our experience with Alain was excellent! He picked us up right outside our AirB&B in a beautiful sprinter van with very cold air conditioning. We saw a number of beautiful coastal cities, medieval towns, with Alain explaining everything about the history and answering all our questions along the way. It was exciting to learn so much from a local who has been giving tours for 29 years - you can tell how much he loves Nice and the surrounding areas and how much he loves sharing his passion with others. He never rushed us and added some fun side quests he thought we would like :)

Great day!!!!!

We had the most wonderful day touring with Mago. He knew so much about the history of the area and had access to some of the most exclusive places. Words can’t describe how much we enjoyed our day. We saw more and learned more than I ever expected. I would definitely book other trips with Mago and recommend you do so as well.

Perfect family tour of Eze & Monaco

We had a fantastic tour of Eze and Monaco with Mago. He catered the entire experience to our family of four and did an amazing job engaging our kids. They learned so much, and he has a wonderful way of bringing history to life in a fun and interactive way. Mago paced the tour perfectly, kept the kids involved, and shared great stories that made the stops in Eze and Monaco memorable for both adults and children. Our kids were genuinely interested the whole time, which is not easy to do. Highly recommend, especially for families.

Great tour!!

Ingrid was great! She met us as soon as we got off our tender and walked us to her van. She had a comfortable all front-facing seat van for the 6 of us. First stop was the venue of the famous Cannes Film Festival where we got to take photos on the red carpet! Then we were off to Monaco, where Ingrid shared stories of the are and the life of the famous Grace Kelly. We strolled past Princess Caroline's beautiful residence and then she got us to Prince Albert of Monaco's palace just in time for us to see the changing of the guards. We strolled through local shops on cobblestone streets and grabbed a quick lunch in the town. Ingrid expertly drove us through the narrow opulent streets of Monte Carlo, stopping to let us awe at the numerous massive luxury yachts. We made our way back to the famous Casino Monte Carlo for a visit inside to see the glittering gold fixtures and take our photos. Our final stop was to the Fragonard Grasse Paris perfumery where we toured the factory as they were hand pressing and packing soaps. Ingrid was an energetic host, eager to share her knowledge and show us as much of the area as time would allow which made for a fulfilling day! I would highly recommend her tour!

Excellent Guide and Comfortable Small-Group Tour

We had a wonderful experience with Lucie, our guide. The small group aspect was great and allowed us to travel comfortably in a van while Lucie went over interesting points along the way. She was a great guide, very well spoken and able to answer any question, no matter how obscure. She did a great job of explaining each stop and giving us ample time to explore on our own. My group included 2 young children and two older adults and the pace was perfect for everyone. We kept on schedule and arrived back at the ship with ample time.

Editha_M, Oct 2025

Best of my Cannes travel.

I booked 3 bookings (6 adults each bookings) On my group and another group had so much fun. But the the 3rd group was super upset about their Driver Mach. They said he wasn't pleasant to talk to. They begged him to have 20 minutes in Monte Carlo since they drove by there but he told them. The people on his group didn't get to go out and take pictures in the beautiful Monte Carlo. Instead, he threaten them that they will miss the ship. They had some time to take a quick 10 mins picture if he listened to his travelers. They are rating him 2⭐️ On the other hand, we had Jouet, another younger men in my group. They are fantastic! I will rate them 5✨⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Elsi Cela was a terrific...

Elsi Cela was a terrific guide. Very knowledgeable and fun. He took us to some amazing places. He knew all the shortcuts and got us to the top of the lines. He was patient- offered to take lots of pics, he provided bottled water, and even gave me 2 euros for the WC. We could never have covered so much ground so fast with a large tour group. Two thumbs up for Elsi

Adrian was excellent tour guide and she went out of her way to make the e trip exciting and special.

Fragonard’s, Eze and Monte Carlo is a must to see with a tour guide. It’s best as traffic and specific knowledge is needed prior to having the perfect trip. Adrian was a pro driver and knew how to navigate the roads, parking and dropping us off right in Front of Monte Carlo to see the casino and to gamble.
