Awesome, highly recommended.

Awesome, highly recommended. Our guide Cyril left a deep impression on me and I will always remember him. He is enthusiastic, meticulous, and responsible, always paying attention to our needs, and treats people sincerely in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. He even prepared homemade onion tart for us, which was delicious. He was attentive to every detail all day. The itinerary was perfect, allowing me to relax and fully enjoy the trip. Although the plan was meticulous, everything felt relaxed and full of human touch. Thank you very much, Cyril, for making this such a wonderful day! Strongly recommend this trip.

Perfect start to your vacation in Nice!

Soni was a very knowledgeable guide. Her family has lived in Gamla stan for generations and she could therefore tell both what it is like to live in Nice now and what it was like before. She took us through Gamla stan, up the hill (and got us in the lift even though we were actually a little late!), and showed us the best viewpoints from up there. She also shared her favorite places to eat, which was very appreciated! I can highly recommend taking a guided tour with Soni if you want to get a good first overview and feel for Nice!

Fun day trip - Cannes, Antibes, St. Paul de Vence

First, our guide, Victor, was a good driver. Along the way he presented a lot of interesting information and history about the areas we traveled through and the sites we visited. He is fun and has a good sense of humor. He recommended a great place for lunch. Our whole group ate there and we were all very satisfied. I would definitely recommend this trip. The hotel pickup was right on time. The van was very nice, clean and comfortable.

Best tour by far

This was the best tour I took in my 12 days of travel in France. Nabril was the best tour guide I have ever had on any tour I have ever taken. He had a passion for the history and explained things in a way that could be understood and kept us interested the whole trip. He was amazingly thorough in explaining in each village how to get around the town to best experience the history. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to visited the medieval villages around Nice.

A must for quick stop Cote D’Azure sightseeing!

Excellent day out and snapshot of Eze, Monaco including Monte Carlo, Antibes, Cannes and St Paul De Vence. Gio was very knowledgable, super friendly and extremely organised. We had a full day out including a guidedtour of the parfumerie at Eze, lunch at Antibes, and a walk around Monte Carlo Casino. If you’re a newbie to the Cote D’Azure, I would highly recommend this tour.

Pleasant sea trip

Nice sea trip, with information, friendly staff. The boat is clean and air-conditioned for those who stay inside. But very pleasant on the back exterior to take beautiful photos, (no need to rush to the front 😉😉) and not too many people, plenty of room without any issues.
