What are people saying about Nice

Bryan_B, Jun 2026

Best tour of our trip!

A mix of scenic train & bus rides & walking to ancient villages. Our guide Cyril was awesome. He greeted us with a huge smile & cup of coffee. He always made sure we were ok Not only was he a Tour Guide but he was a very friendly host too. His local knowledge is 2nd to none from his former professional career. I’ll never forget eating a snack that Cyril provided under the apricot tree at the monastery gardens & his telling the story of the 14th century frescoes at Notre Dame des Fontaines. Lunch at La Brigue was the best meal of our trip. A do not miss activity but only if Cyril is your tour guide!

Saint-Paul-de-Vence and Antibes-Wonderful day trip!

Eda was our tour guide and was terrific. She was very flexible and we changed our tour to spend more time in Antibes, as Cannes was not of interest to us. What a great day. We had a bit of extra time and Eda strongly suggested we visit the waterfall in Nice, before going back to the hotel. Great suggestion and Eda was simply a great guide.

Great way to visit a lot of towns surrounding Nice

This was a great way to cover a lot of sites efficiently. We wanted to see a number of towns surrounding Nice, but would have taken a lot of time for us to explore on our own. This tour provided a really great way to visit a number towns in a single day, so we could sample each (and maybe later go back and revisit some of the highlights to spend more time). Daniel (our driver) was very personable and attentive, and shared lots of information throughout the day. We definitely recommend this tour, and would consider future tours.

Fun day!

We had a fantastic day with Thin, our driver & guide. He was very humorous and knowledgeable about Eze, Monaco & Monte Carlo. He gave us great insights on what to see. These locations are lovely! If you want a taste of these areas, definitely sign up for this tour!

Charming and authentic

A beautiful day seeing villages that were a thousand years old. The art, the people, the history was truly a magnificent privilege to be a part of. Our guide Lawrence was absolutely charming. She loves her job and is it shows. She was kind and funny and an absolute joy to be around. This is one tour I highly recommend.

Excellent Tour of Four Beautiful Villages

We loved seeing each of the scenic cities on this tour and hearing the interesting information provided at the Frangonard factory. In each city we were given the opportunity to explore on our own. Personally, I would have liked to have had a guide while we were in the cities to help with navigation and share information as we went along. The stops enroute to the cities provided beautiful photo opportunities. Overall, this was a great tour! Our driver was very nice and careful/not aggressive, which we appreciated.

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!

Adventures in Isle de France

This was a wonderful experience for us! My friend and I (87 and 75 years ild, respectively.) wanted to explore Nice, Eze and Cape Saint Ferrat without too much walking, do driving the little electric Fiats was perfect. Our guide was outstanding and very careful to look after us as we drove among standard sized cars. He was very informative so we learned a great deal about the places we visited. I highly recommend this excursion to travelers of all ages!

Shannon_R, May 2026

A great day trip “taster” in the south of France

We had a wonderful time during this tour! Eric was our driver and he was great. Very kind and accommodating. The hotel pickup and drop off was seamless and very convienent! I would view this tour as a “taster” for these three destinations since you have a limited amount of time - I wish we got more time in Antibes and Saint Paul de Vence. But that is just the nature of seeing so much in a fixed amount of time. I don’t know if we would’ve explored these places without the tour, and now we are already itching to go back!

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!
