Ashley_H, Jul 2026

Great train experience.

This trip includes train, bus and walking. We did about 5 miles overall of walking. Cyril was our guide and he was excellent. He was funny and kept all of us entertained. We were a small group of 8 so we were able to move quickly. We stopped by many beautiful cathedrals and Cyril gave us history on each. The views were breathtaking.

Above and Beyond!

Laurence is a fantastic tour guide. She’s so thoughtful, knowledgeable, friendly, energetic and put everyone at ease. The next time I visit the region, I will definitely book another tour with her. She also sent us a bunch of super helpful tips after the tour, so she really goes above and beyond. It was delightful to visit all the different medieval villages and learn about their history. Overall this was a highlight of my trip to Côte d’Azur!

It was a pleasant trip....

It was a pleasant trip. Thanks to Sabine. The tour covers several locations and involves traveling through areas with heavy traffic, so you spend most of the time driving. You need to move quickly at the stops to make the most of the time and the location.

Excellent Tour – Worth Every Minute!

We had a fantastic day on this tour! Everything was well organised, and our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. Cannes, Antibes, and Saint-Paul de Vence were all beautiful, each with its own unique charm. We had enough time to explore, take photos, and soak up the atmosphere without feeling rushed. The small-group setting made the experience even better. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Nice!

Fabulous experience - a total winner!

Our driver, and I apologize that I can’t recall her name at the moment, was fantastic. First- a great driver navigating outrageous traffic on the day after the Formula 1 race. She was extremely kind and accommodating, helpful and absolutely committed to providing an outstanding experience. She was extremely knowledgeable about the history and sites. She gave excellent instructions and recommendations. She was one of the best tour providers ever. I am hearing impaired and consequently had a bit of a struggle understanding what she was saying as she drove but when we were standing and I could see her face, I had little trouble. I’m sure if I had asked to sit up front she would have been agreeable. (I didn’t ask because sonrine dkse was sitting there). My husband and grandson went into the casino at Monte Carlo and even came out winners - first time! I highly recommend this particular guide and tour.

Great Tour to Explore So Much!

Parfait brought us on a very robust tour along the French Riviera. I really appreciated the early morning pickup in an air conditioned van, with good tips in each village/town we stopped in and great photo ops places. Would highly recommend taking this the first day you’re here to get a good layout of the land. Merci Beaucoup!

Full day Guided Tour: Monaco-Monte Carlo-Èze from Nice or Cannes

Douglas_M, May 2026

The BEST tour guide in Nice/Monaco/Eze.

Billie was an awesome tour guide! She called prior to meeting us at the Nice cruise terminal to let us know her ETA etc. She is a sole proprietor and she has a van that comfortably holds 6-8 people. We had 4 in our family and she had booked 2 others from our cruise. From Nice she drove us to Monaco, Monte Carlo along the Formula 1 Grand Prix which was so cool as they are setting it up for upcoming event. She gave us an ample amount of time to visit the infamous Monte Carlo Casino and surroundings. After that she drove us to the castle of Monaco's Prince & Princess. Guided us through the beautiful gardens that led to the Castle. She got us there in time for the changing of the guard. Which is a part of her tour plans. She then left to give us enough time to tour the area and have lunch on our own. Following, she took us to Eze Village and the perfume factory which was very nice and interesting to see. My family (wife, sister and BIL) had an awesome day and agreed that Billie is the best guide. We would highly recommend this tour when porting in Nice!
