What are people saying about Nice

Sara_Q, Jul 2026

St. Paul, Antibes, Cannes

We had a great time! Everything was customized for more or less time at each of our stops based on our preferences. Elsi was very communicative- he let us know he was running a few minutes late to pick us up at the start of the tour. He was also easy to get in touch with when he dropped us off at different stops. It was a nice easy going afternoon and nice to be driven around!

Train Exp. through the Alps (Royal Baroque Route from Nice)

Jawauna_G, Jun 2026

Above the sea in the Alps! It’s worth the journey.

This was a beautiful day of train travel, historic sights, fun, and laughter. Our guide Cyril was very kind, knowledgeable, and organized. He took excellent care of each guest! We learned, we asked questions and we met visitors from around the world. He took his time and made sure each person felt included. I advise anyone to wear appropriate shoes and ensure that you can physically manage long walk, hills, and a bit of nature! You should be physically fit essentially. The meals were great. The small restaurants and shopkeepers were so gracious. They truly welcomed everyone to explore their communities.

Nabil and Laurence were...

Nabil and Laurence were an excellent team guiding and driving in two separate vans. We could focus on the incredible views and absorb a great deal of history. The hour long stops in each village gave us time to walk around at our own pace. Their lovely personalities combined with good vibes of our group of 20 made for fun and a very pleasant day. Had the van been a bit bigger we would have been less cramped. It was a very hot day- not easy for anyone.

She engaged with every single one of us in a nice and polite way, she shared jokes, gave us some good tips about what to visit , where to go, etc. All in all, we had a brilliant day.

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!

Cannes, Antibes, and St Paul de Vence Full-day from Nice Small-Group Tour

Nilla_I, Jun 2026

Outstanding Day Trip Along the French Riviera!

This was easily one of the highlights of our trip to the South of France. The tour was exceptionally well organized, and the itinerary offered the perfect mix of coastal beauty, history, culture, and free time to explore. Our guide, Milena, was absolutely fantastic. She was knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and passionate about the region. Throughout the day, she shared fascinating stories and local insights that brought each destination to life. Her enthusiasm and attention to detail made the experience even more enjoyable. Cannes was beautiful, with its famous promenade and glamorous atmosphere. Antibes was charming and full of character, with stunning views of the Mediterranean and a lovely old town to wander through. St. Paul de Vence was simply magical, like stepping into a postcard, with its cobblestone streets, art galleries, and breathtaking scenery. The small-group format made the experience feel personal and relaxed, and transportation was comfortable throughout the day. Milena ensured everyone felt welcome and had a great experience from start to finish. If you’re staying in Nice and want to experience some of the most beautiful destinations on the French Riviera in a single day, I highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Milena, for creating such a memorable experience!

Méline is amazing!

We went to three beautiful wineries and were able to test a variety of whites, rosés, and reds. Being from the United States I wasn’t expecting to enjoy the rosés as they are quite sweet there, but the rosés ended up being my favorite as they are known for them in this region. Our guide Méline was absolutely fantastic! She was extremely knowledgable and easy to talk to. We enjoyed learning both about wine and about the French Riviera from her!

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!
