It was beautiful! One hour of magnificent views and narrator/host had fun facts. The views were breathtaking and time was well spent to see the surroundings area.
Unfortunately due to weather our booked excursion was cancelled but we got a full refund d ti the account same day. Awesome
A beautiful day to be on the water. The boat was nice. Seats comfortable. We just couldn’t hear the person speaking very well so we didn’t know what we were looking at.
This is a fantastic quick Cruise. Alot is packed in. The crew di a great job entertaining and explaining the sights and history along the coast.
We were running late but they were so accommodating. The boat is super clean snd the guy on the mic was amazing.
Very relaxing low commitment sailing cruise from port of Nice to Villefranche sur Mer then back to Nice. Some great narration in English and French. Snack and drinks available for purchase on board. You are docked in the Villefranche sur Mer Bay for a good 20 minutes. It is very picturesque with lots of beautiful homes and shoreline. Always nice to see a coastal city from the water. Also learned a little bit about the area in terms of history and biodiversity. Could have done with not knowing so much about who lived in which home (all celebrities and royalty) but I know some people like that. I liked learning more about the history and biodiversity as well as architecture of the region. However overall very enjoyable and was still able to take a half day trip to another town in the afternoon after my 11am tour.
Amazing trip from start to finish. Would 100% recommend this trip! We sat upstairs on the way there which was lovely as could top up my tan lol. Did feel like a long wile on are way there but deffo worth it! Went swimming at St George’s bay which was sooo beautiful and they gave you enough time to swim! Then of we went to symi. We went for some drinks and food and walked around the markets and then we was ready for departure. They give you more than enough time to explore. Then on way back we sat downstairs with aircon and had a nap. The seats were comfy enough to do so. Overall had an amazing time with my partner! Would definitely recommend . We are super tired now.
Super friendly staff! Everything on time. Smooth sailing & funny & extremely informative tour guide in French and English. Drinks available on board!
This is a brilliant trip and the staff are fantastic. Well worth it to see the coastline. Just beautiful
This tour was a beautiful ride with an informed guide and incredible customer service! Wear a hat because it is incredibly warm especially if you don’t have a covered seat.
The tour was well worth the money. The guides were very professional and their communication was fine. They spoke in both French and English. Getting off the train turn to your right and then make a slight left at the end of the boats and head to exchange your e-ticket for a paper ticket. Okay, back to the tour it lasted 1 hrs and of course the sentiment because you are on a boat we all wish it were longer. We felt that is was still very enjoyable for a last moment tour. I would recommend purchasing this tour. If we return we would go on it again despite the 1hr length.
It was crowded, but if you arrive early enough you can get a good seat. It also felt rushed. The crew were exceptionally friendly!
Nice cruise, easy to retrieve boarding tickets and find the boat. Information provided in English and French. Thank you.
The tour was OK, a bit expensive for what you get. Tour guide and crew were great. Unfortunately no cards accepted for payment of refreshments.
Speedy trip around the shoreline. Captain narrates in French and English. Friendly crew. Tips: collect paper tickets first with your booking and cash-only bar.
The staff was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. The sites were beautiful. It was the perfect tour for those who don’t have a lot of time but want to see Nice and the surrounding area.
Great way to spend an hour out at sea. The commentary was great, some good stories about the area. Really good value for money.
Fabulous way to spend an hour checking out lovely yachts and the coastline .Bring cash for a drink on board .
You get to see some incredible views of the coastline. Really recommend if you are unable to rent your own boat but still want to see the coast of Nice and surrounding areas
A wonderful tour along the Côte d'Azur! Incredible views, a clear sea, and a wonderful atmosphere. Special thanks to the boat crew who made this trip special. Definitely recommend!
Quick whip around the Mediterranean from Nice, with a stop in Ville Sur Mere. The staff were amazing l.
Tour guide is knowledgeable. The nice breeze, picturesque tour should be done by anyone trying to see the riviera from a distance.
It’s a very nice beautiful ride around the coast of nice, some very pretty places. Definitely would recommend this tour, it’s a good deal for the price.
The guide did a great job telling us about what we were seeing! 😊—————————————————————————————————-
I expected to travel further along the coastline and enjoy more sites. What we saw was nice, but limited.
Highly recommend this trip with a presentation of the sights too. Refreshments on board. It was relaxing and good fun!
Lovely views of course,
but also excellent boating
skills from the crew!
Thank you for the experience😁
Very good cruise experience to explore Nice and Villefrance Sur Mer from the Sea. The captain was very good, informative and funny. Stunning views and an absolute must do in Nice.
A lovely chance to escape the heat of the city and see the cote d'azur from a different view point. The boat is very well maintained and has a bar/toilets. The commentary is informative and warm in French/English. Indoor and outdoor seating available on the boat.
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!
