My friends and I had an incredible experience with Nicola! Everything was perfect including the local information about surrounding villas, swimming opportunities (with towels and floats provided), cold drinks and the wonderful spread he prepared for lunch. Could not recommend this experience enough!

Nice to Mala Caves and Villefranche Boat Ride and Swimming
Excellent fast rib boat ride which mixes exhilarating fun of high-speed with slower sections to take in the sights. Nathan is a great personality, gives lots of facts around the various sights and answers questions. He speaks good English for english/American visitors too.
Beautiful trip to Mala caves and then eventually on to Villefranche Bay for swimming/ snorkeling.
This was 2nd time we've done this trip in 3 years. It's that good in terms of pricing, how well organised it is and just enjoyment factor.
Top marks, again.

Highly recommend this...
Highly recommend this boat excursion! First stop was snorkeling by the Mala caves. The water was so clear and beautiful! We were able to snorkel inside the cave and near all the rocks. Next stop was Villefranche sur mer. We had 40 minutes to explore this stunning village. Loved the fast boat!

Driver unites strangers on a Riveria Tour
This was a long 10 hour trip, fortunately we knew this so were prepared for it. The driver, Francis was a good guide and made our day very enjoyable. There was so much to see and do and he managed to keep us on time. The other passengers on the tour from all round were soon friends due to Francis and his ability to involve us all. He used our names like he had known us forever.

Sunset cruise and dip in the Mediterranean - Bring your Suit!!!
This was a lovely sunset cruise. We were on a small cruiser that had seating for 14 or 16. I believe there were 12 of us on our boat. Our tour guide was very informative and shared stories and information about each of the sites we were passing. I didn't care for some of the music played (I believe it was linked to the areas where we were) but one of the songs was a rap song with foul language and in my opinion did not add anything positive to the experience. Was much happier when the song was over!!! Little difficult to understand our tour guides accent but he was speaking English and his English is 100% better than my French. There is a stop for about 45 minutes when you can take a dip in the Mediterranean. Somehow I missed that in the description. No problem, I didn't miss out, I got in the water in my dress! There is snorkel gear and noodles provided if interested. Focaccia Bread, Rose wine, and Water provided at the swimming stop. We stopped at 2 different sunset views and both were beautiful. Had a few speed bursts as well on the way back which everyone seemed to enjoy. We had a great group of people on this tour which added to the fun. It was wonderful to see the coastline of Nice from the water!

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!!

Amazing
What a great tour to see the sites around Nice. The super fun little cars make driving on the French Riviera even better. Julie our guide was outstanding. She was knowledgeable, patient and concerned with the safety of all the travellers. The 4 hour tour took us to places we would not have seen on our own, and showed us places we wanted to return to. The tour is well paced with short drives, time to take pictures and explore the spots. It was a beautiful and fun adventure. I highly recommend it.

the workshop was very easy to follow. mostly independent in picking your own scents but the employees were fantastic at helping pair the perfect scent combinations. They tell you exactly how much of each to place in it when you're putting together your final scent. I love how you're able to create something that's appeals to your individual, and seeing it all come together is very unique. I am very happy with the experience.

A city escape
A lovely chance to escape the heat of the city and see the cote d'azur from a different view point. The boat is very well maintained and has a bar/toilets. The commentary is informative and warm in French/English. Indoor and outdoor seating available on the boat.

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.

From the Outer Banks to Villefranche
We had a great time snorkeling with this tour. The owner was kind enough to wait for us as we were 10 minutes late from our cruise ship. Sophia the intern was precious 💕 She was very interested in meeting the guests and learning where everyone was from.

Fantastic Ferry from Nice to Monaco
Fun trip on the water between Nice and Monaco (45min to Monaco, 60min return). The Charlotte was a very nice ship. Crew were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The return trip included a closer ride along the coast with lots of interesting commentary of the area. Note: Ferry docks at Port de Fontvieille (not Port Hercule). Bus stop at Fontvieille can quickly take you anywhere in Monaco. Recommend the Ship & Castle English pub at the end of the day. You can enjoy a beverage near the water and will see the Charlotte return to port.
