    Exceptional tour and guide. A must do.

    Donald_L, Oct 2025
    We were blessed with a half day tour with Mago. The destinations exceeded already high expectations and Mago’s deep insights and sense of humour elevated the experience to a bucket list level. Mago’s English was perfect. We quite enjoyed the French language lessons he weaved into our day. Mago took special care to cater to our interests including refreshing drinks in a most scenic location in Eze and specialty shops throughout the tour. His depth of knowledge of history, art, architecture and local history was first rate. He shared all generously. It was beautiful, relaxing and most of all fun and informative. I wished our day did not end. Highly recommended!

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Thank you so much for this amazing review! I truly appreciate your kind words. It was such a pleasure spending the day with you and sharing a bit of the French Riviera’s history (and a few French words too!). I am really glad you enjoyed the visit, the stops in Èze, and the little local discoveries along the way. Hearing that the tour felt both fun and meaningful means a lot to me. Merci again for choosing to tour with me — I hope our paths cross again someday! — Mago

    Such a knowledgeable and friendly guide around the Cote D’Azur. Knew the places, people and locations to make it a very unique afternoon.

    Response from Host, Aug 2025

    Thank you so much for your review! We are so happy that Mago made your afternoon special — he truly enjoys sharing the stories of the French Riviera. We look forward to welcoming you back soon to discover even more that this magical destination has to offer!

    When in Nice France, use Unique Tours Riviera!!!

    Jeffrey_D, May 2025
    Unique Tours Riviera puts on an incredible tour. Mago, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about every place that we visited. This was a 5 hour tour of 3 or 4 places. Eze and Saint Paul de Vance were the highlights for us, but every stop had its own special beauty! Not only was Mago knowledgeable, he really made the experience very personal. Very professional in every way! He also went out of his way to help me with an issue I had in obtaining our key to the apartment we rented while in Nice. We ended up having to load our luggage into his vehicle for the tour, then at the end of the tour he took us to go pick up the key then back to our apartment where he stayed until he was sure we were able to get in. He was a lifesaver for us. Thanks for a really wonderful day and all your help! I would highly recommend this tour, or one of many he has to offer!

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Bonjour Jeffrey, Thank you so much for this incredible review. Mago genuinely loves what he does, and it clearly reflects in the way he treats people — with care, kindness, and dedication. We are so happy he was able to help make your day not only enjoyable but also less stressful with your apartment situation. Thank you again for choosing us and for recommending our tours! Warmest regards, Melanie & the UniqueTours Riviera team

    Had a great time with my family

Every location we visited was absolutely incredible. This tour was a highlight of our trip and made it an unforgettable experience!" Thank You! Renae

    Response from Host, May 2025

It was a real pleasure guiding you and bringing the history of the places we visited to life. I am very glad to know the tour became such a memorable part of your trip. All the best, Mago

    Fabulous tour that changes your perspective

    Toni_A, Apr 2025
    We had an absolutely fantastic private half-day tour of Eze and Saint-Paul de Vence with Mago as our guide. Mago was incredibly engaging, bringing history to life with his great humor and extensive knowledge. He was accommodating with both pickup and drop-off, ensuring our experience was seamless from start to finish. His passion for history and art made the tour truly memorable, and his ability to tailor the experience to our interests was impressive. Despite a rainy day, Mago's energy and enthusiasm made the nearly seven hours fly by, leaving us with unforgettable memories of these stunning locations. Highly recommended!

    Response from Host, Apr 2025

    Dear Toni, it was such a great pleasure meeting with you and helping you to discover the beautiful French Riviera. I hope to see you all again very soon :-) best, Mago

    Ginger_M, Oct 2024
    Eze and Saint-Paul de Vence are beautiful examples of medieval towns on the French Riviera. The settings and the vistas were breathtaking. Our guide, Mago, was outstanding. He was engaging and very knowledgeable. His passion for this area was infectious. He made the experience special.

    Bonjour, Thank you for your kind words! We are so happy you enjoyed your tour of Eze and Saint-Paul de Vence with Mago. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you again to explore more of the French Riviera! Best regards, Melanie

    Best tour experience in France

    Qianqian_C, Oct 2024
    First of all, I would like to thank Mago for providing us with the best tour experience during our trip to France. We had a wonderful time in Eze and Saint-Paul de Vence. When we first met Mago, I thought they had sent us an American or Canadian as our tour guide because his English was that good. Mago brought an iPad with him to show us the history of France and all the background information about the tour. We learned a lot and highly recommend booking this trip, as it will truly enhance your experience in France.

    Response from Host, Oct 2024

    Bonjour, Thank you so much for your kind words! Mago takes great pride in making history come alive for our guests, and we are glad his efforts and detailed presentations added so much to your visit. We appreciate your recommendation and are so happy to have been a part of your trip to France. Looking forward to welcoming you on another tour soon! Best regards, The Unique Tours Riviera Team

    Extraordinarily Spectacular

    Ladd_S, Oct 2024
    I had the pleasure of experiencing an unforgettable tour with Mago Voraev, the owner of UniqueTours Riveria in Cannes. From the moment we set foot on the tour, Mago impressed us with his wealth of knowledge, engaging storytelling, and attention to every detail. He led us on a journey through history and fun facts that left us in awe and fascination. One of the many things that stood out about Mago was his genuine care for our group's well-being. Not only did he provide us with a comprehensive and thorough tour, but he made sure that we were comfortable, entertained, and fully immersed in the experience. By the end of the tour, he had us back to the Scarlet Lady right on time, ensuring that our day was perfectly rounded off.

    Response from Host, Oct 2024

    Bonjour Ladd, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for sharing these amazing pictures! We are incredibly proud to hear that you enjoyed your tour and felt comfortable throughout the journey. Your kind words reaffirm our dedication to providing unforgettable experiences and exceptional customer service. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit, hopefully very soon! Warm regards, Mago and the UniqueTours Riviera Team

    Historical lesson in midlevel culture

    Stanley_W, Jun 2024
    Magi was an amazing and very knowledgeable Guide. He was very engaging and ensured us a very memorable tour. As we encountered every point of interest during our tour, Mago took the time to give not only key points relating to the areas, he also provided an enrichment of history to help us better understand how things happened to get to where we are today. Simply amazing tour which I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a historical lesson in cultures and regions.

    Response from Host, Jun 2024

    Bonjour Stanley, Thank you so much for your kind words and for recommending our tour! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour with Mago and found it both interesting and memorable.

    Eze & Saint-Paul de Vence

    Carel_S, Jun 2024
    I had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Eze & Saint-Paul de Vence Private Half-Day Tour. Our guide, Mago, was exceptional—knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive to every detail. Mago's insights and stories brought the history and beauty of these stunning locations to life. The tour was well-organized and perfectly timed, allowing us to fully enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. I highly recommend this tour and Mago as your guide for an unforgettable adventure!

    Response from Host, Jun 2024

    Must Do

    Jeanine_S, Feb 2024
    This day trip to Eze and Saint Paul de Vence is wonderful. The guide Mago made the experience special. He is so kind, respectful and knowledgeable. We learned a lot on this excursion and he goes at your own pace. The villages are so charming and I highly recommend going here if you are in the French Riviera region. Mago does other trips in the area via Unique Tours and I regret not doing those with him. The extra TLC you get is the difference between a blah tour verses a spectacular one.

    Response from Host, Mar 2024

    Dear Jeanine, Thank you for such a wonderful review! We're so happy to hear that you loved your day trip with Mago. It means a lot to us that you'd recommend our tours in the French Riviera. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you on another tour with Mago in the future. Warm regards, Melanie

    Amazing Tour and Tour Guide of Eze and Saint-Paul

    russellb2, Jan 2024
    This tour was one of the best we have ever been on! Our guide, Mago, was amazing. He not only has an incredible background in art history, but also has extensive hospitality and guide degrees. He showed us all of the things you would expect on a tour, but more importantly he knew about the secret places and stories that most tourists never see or hear about. He tailors the trip to your interests and will dive deeper into whatever interests you and move on from things you don't. Mago will also take you to the best Gelato place and best art galleries! If you want to see Eze and Saint-Paul this is your tour, period!

    Response from Host, Feb 2024

    Dear Russell, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're so happy to know that your tour with Mago surpassed your expectations. It's wonderful to hear how he introduced you to both the iconic sights and the hidden treasures of Eze and Saint-Paul. We're glad that Mago's passion allowed you to explore your interests more deeply and enjoy the best local gelato and art galleries. Your kind words affirm our commitment to providing unique and memorable tours tailored to our guests' preferences. Mago and the rest of our team look forward to welcoming you back for more unforgettable experiences. Warmest regards, Melanie

    A must tour !!!

    Jennifer_R, Jul 2022
    Mago was an excellent tour guide grew up in Nice so knows a lot of history about it a lot of cool places to go and eat. Comfortable minivan with Air conditioning. He had a plan for the tour but let us Adjust it according to our needs. Thanks Mago.

    Response from Host, Mar 2023

    Dear Jennifer, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your tour experience with me. I am thrilled to hear that you found me to be an excellent tour guide. I am glad to hear that you found my minivan comfortable and the air conditioning to be refreshing during your tour. It was my pleasure to provide a plan for the tour that could be adjusted to meet your needs and preferences. Thank you again for choosing UniqueTours Riviera and for sharing your experience with others. I hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for another adventure in the beautiful region of Nice and Monaco. Best regards, Mago.

    Fabulous tour, highly recommended.

    Martin_T, May 2022
    We booked this tour whilst staying in Nice and because it misses out Monaco, which we have been to several times previously. Mago is a wonderful guide, very well spoken, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He will tailor the tour to your needs and even though we got stuck in traffic due to an accident, he added extra time to make up what we lost. A notable point is that Mago likes to accompany and guide his guests walking around Eze and St Paul de Vence whereas many guides just give you "free time".

    Response from Host, Jun 2022

    Hi Martin, We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the excursion with us. Thank you for taking time out of your day to leave us this super kind review. From all of us at UniqueTours Riviera family, we look forward to seeing you again soon! Antoine

    Fantastic tour

    Mary_L, May 2022
    Mago picked us up promptly at our hotel. He tailored the tour for our needs and offered valuable information at both locations. We loved Eze, but we’re surprised how much more we liked Saint-Paul de Vence. I will recommend Mago to my friend traveling to Nice this summer.

    Response from Host, May 2022

    Dear Mary, it was an absolute pleasure having you! Hope to see you again. Thank you for taking your time to share your feedback. Mago
