Lovely Sunset
Had a great evening with Nathan. Very friendly and personable with good wine and focaccia. Told us some highlights about the area and enjoyed the sunset in a beautiful location. Please look at photos of the boat before booking tour- it is a small boat with straddle type seats, not a luxury boat and no bathroom. I knew this ahead of time but seemed like those on our tour were confused so just know what you’re signing up for to avoid confusion. We had fun!

Excellent! One of the highlights to our cruise. Guide was good, took us to several scenic and historic spots.
Word of advice - do NOT plan on walking. While the distance isn't overly far, there were easily over 1,000 steps up and down as you are basically going over the middle of the island.

A must for your first time in Côte d’Azur!
Pickup in Nice all-boat tour. Plenty of time for swimming off the boat (our location was next to the caves in Cap D’Ail, they also have floaties for less experienced), followed by the tour along the coast with great commentary. They drop you off at a charming village for a self guided exploration before returning to Nice by boat - we chose to stay in the area and visit the nearby towns for the remainder of the day. Antonio was great! Highly recommended experience!

Highly recommend this tour, particularly if you have limited days to explore the French Riviera, or don’t want to worry about the details of travelling from one town to the next! As others have said, a lot of ground is covered in one day, so there is only limited time to explore in each location, but it was enough to see the highlights. I really appreciated the independent time to explore each site on your own. Nora was an excellent driver and gave us enough of an introduction to each stop prior to dropping us off for exploration.
Definitely a highlight of our vacation! We enjoyed this tour very much.

Do not skip!
This was a last minute addition to my few days in Nice and I am so glad I was able to book it. The staff were fantastic and the process was enjoyable and very interesting. Nothing like leaving France with your own custom fragrance! I was out numbered 2-1 by men, so this is not a gender specific experience! I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Cannes, Antibes & St. Paul de Vence are beautiful, historic & memorable destinations!
Our destinations on this tour were absolutely beautiful & interesting! The ability to visit the 3 sites that were all unique, exceeded our expectations! The additional time that we received from our tour guide as a result of the traffic in Cannes, due to the yacht show, was greatly appreciated!

Beautiful Boat Trip along the Coast
We absolutely loved our boat trip around Nice. It was such a lovely experience and a wonderful way to see the beautiful coastline from the water. The views were stunning, and being out on the Mediterranean made it feel really special. Everything was well organised, and the trip was both relaxing and enjoyable. It was definitely one of the highlights of our stay in Nice and something we would highly recommend. We really enjoyed every minute and would definitely do it again. A beautiful experience and a lovely memory from our trip to Nice.

We spent such an incredible morning with Antoine cruising around the coast from Nice to Eze. The music was fun, and Antoine brought great vibes and humor as he shared facts along the way. The swim + snorkel to the Mala Caves was PERFECT! Definitely recommend doing it in the morning bc the heat can be intense at peak hours. No better way to spend our morning!

Great way to visit Monaco in a day
This is a great way to visit Monaco in a day. Ferry is operated by the same crew and boat for the Mediterranean sight seeing tour. The crew is courteous with top notch service and makes the trip fun, providing sight seeing commentary on the cruise to Monaco and back.
I'd do this as a day trip only. Once in Monaco, you are self-guided, with about 6 1/2 hours (1015-1645) to visit Monaco.
The return trip departs a little after the table games open up at Monte Carlo. Best to take the train or stay in Monaco if you're looking to gamble a longer time.
Otherwise outstanding for seeing the sights.

Amazing experience
We had never snorkelled before, and I am not the sportiest person, so I was a little nervous. However, the staff gave a proper briefing in several languages. The equipment was in good condition. Everything went swimmingly! The boat ride was about 20 minutes each way, with over an hour in the water. It was incredible! The colour and warmth of the water; beautiful, plentiful and colourful fishes! A very beautiful setting in Villefranche’s bay. Just absolute wow! It left us wanting to go snorkelling again for sure!

Amazing!!
This was a fantastic tour that began with a Segway how to lesson and moved on to a very fun and thorough tour of the promenade des Anglais and the old town and Statue of the Sun/Place Massena back to the starting point just off of the beach. We learned some history and fun facts, had so much fun riding the segways around and about and got very comfortable on them about midway through which really enabled us to get so much done. Nicolas was an amazing teacher and guide and we had a fabulous time. HIGHLY recommend!!

Taste of Nice Tour
Our tour guide Allie was not only knowledgeable about the local cuisine and the cuisine’s history she was also friendly to us and the merchants we visited or traveled past. We truly enjoyed meeting the other people on this tour. We started the tour as strangers and left as friends.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Nice is the perfect home base for exploring the glamorous Côte d'Azur. But you don’t need to own a million-dollar yacht to enjoy this world-famous stretch of the Mediterranean. Cruises from Nice cover the entire French Riviera stretching from Saint Tropez to Menton. Whether you charter your boat—captain included—or board a ferry, you’ll stop at scenic ports such as Villefranche-sur-Mer, Cannes, and Monte Carlo. Don’t forget your swimsuit if you plan on snorkeling and your camera if you opt for a sunset sailing. Most Nice cruises range from 2–8 hours.
