Private Boat Tour Nice, Villefranche, St Jean Cap Ferrat

Kelly_F, Aug 2026

Highlight of trip

We had an incredible day on the water with George! From start to finish, he made our family feel welcome and ensured we had an unforgettable experience. We loved exploring the beautiful local coves, stopping to swim in the crystal-clear water, and taking in the stunning scenery along the coast. The wine and snacks were a wonderful touch, and George’s knowledge of the area made the trip even more enjoyable. He shared fascinating information about the coastline and local history, and we truly enjoyed all of our conversations with him throughout the day. If you’re visiting Nice, this boat tour is an absolute must. It was one of the highlights of our trip, and we couldn’t recommend George more highly. Thank you for such a fantastic day! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great Southern France day trip!

Kate was an amazing tour guide. She navigated our family with two babies through Eze, Monaco, and Monte Carlo.

Would definitely recommend to get around and get the most out of your trip in southern France!

It was a great view of the villages and cliffs. Our guide Nathan was kind, funny and gave us great information. It was the perfect amount of time if you want a few hours on the water. The boat did not “look” how we expected but ended up being very comfortable and smooth (it was a soft sided boat and no shade). Our family had a really great time and would recommend!!

We enjoyed seeing a variety of vineyards in Provence. Each was unique in its own way. Our favorite was a small family owned vineyard where we got to speak with the owner. It’s an enjoyable day meeting new people on your tour, seeing the French countryside and learning more about wine.

Boat trip and snorkeling in Villefranche - sur - Mer

Elizabeth_P, July 2026

Lovely family activity

We had a lovely time on our snorkeling trip with Olivier. He was pleasant and helpful. Our family of 4 (2 kids, 10 and 14) had such a blast swimming and snorkeling in the bay of Villefranche Sur Mer. Olivier took us to a spot with clear water where we were able to see some fish, sea urchins, and a sea star. We took a short cruise around the bay to check out the scenery, too.

Private Luxury Boat Tour on an Exclusive Day-Cruiser Nice/Monaco

Jenny_B, July 2026

Highlight of our trip

Our time on the boat ended up being the highlight of our trip! It was so fun to explore the area from the water; we got so many views of beautiful yachts and villas. Nicola was a wonderful captain and served us a delicious lunch while also telling us about the history of the area. My teenagers had a blast jumping off from the boat and we got to explore a cave and swim in a calm cove. The boat is more spacious in person than the pictures make it look and it is very well maintained. We would highly recommend this tour and wish we had booked the longer tour!

Gold Star Rating for this Culinary Tour

Audrey is a fabulous tour guide. Very knowledgeable and wonderful personality. This is the career for her. The tour provided not only the culinary tastings but also a bit of history, snip-its about the culture and the origins of the restaurants and foods we experienced. This tour is worth every penny spent.

Boat Tour

Don’t forget to go to the little ticket booth to get your physical tickets before getting in line to board the boat! We had already seen much of the area from land and this was a great opportunity to see it from a different viewpoint. A nice 1 hour ride. I tend to get seasick and had no issues whatsoever. All of the narration was in English and French - we had no issues understanding everything. There is a bathroom on board and a full bar, if you would like a cocktail. A nice way to get out of the heat for a little bit!

Private Boat Tour from Nice to Monaco, Cannes, Menton

April_l, June 2026

Definitely book this trip! 10 out of 10!

Constantine was great! He was relaxed, easy going and very knowledgeable about all the homes and boats we passed. After seeing the mega boats in the Monico harbor we had plenty of time left to visit a quiet cove for swimming and exploring a natural cave. My teenagers loved that he let them choose the music. I did the research and this is the nicest private tour that is also affordable offered. Would do the same trip again!

Magnifique Day on the Mediterranean

Michael was a wonderful skipper! He reached out the day before to confirm details, was friendly and personable through the time on the boat and helped make the afternoon ss fun and relaxing as we could have hoped for, I would recommend to anyone. He also had good recommendations for the next leg of our journey into the Alps and introduced us to Monster Munch, our new favorite snack! The paddle board and sea scooter were awesome to have access to and the perfect weather was the cherry on top to a perfect day!
