This was an excellent experience. We got to tour places you wouldn’t normally go. Martin was the owner/guide and he provided great insight into the places we went to. Highly recommend this. Great two hour journey. And well worth the fee.

This is a must do tour. On a beautiful day, Our guide was very friendly, he led us with his motorbike which made it easy to follow while driving the fun car. He was very informative and knowledgeable of every place we visited. I didn’t feel rushed ( like some tours are). My daughter and I had a blast, I can now say I have driven the streets of Nice. I highly recommend this tour. Fun,fun,fun. It’s a must.

The Ultimate French Riviera Road Trip!

Julien_M, Nov 2025

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our road trip along the French Riviera was absolutely unforgettable! The views were breathtaking, from the winding coastal roads to the turquoise sea, every turn felt like a postcard. The car was super comfortable and perfect for the ride, but what really made the experience special was our guide, Zakaria. He was friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable about every spot we visited, from hidden gems to the best photo stops. Honestly, he made the trip ten times better! Give this man a raise, he deserves it! 🚗🌴🇫🇷✨

Neh_W, Oct 2025

What a fun experience. We ended up being the only ones on the tour but that didn’t diminish the fun. We made 3 stops along the way and got to take amazing pictures at different viewpoints. If you like driving then you should definitely do this when you come to Nice. Our guide was lovely and made sure we were safe and having a good time. We would do it again!

Worth the money

Khotam_I, Oct 2025

We did the French Riviera Cities & Sightseeing Scoot Coupe Tour from Nice, and it was such a fun experience! Our guide, Emile, was very knowledgeable and made the tour even more enjoyable. We signed up for a group tour but it ended up being just us, which made it feel private and special. The ride itself was so much fun — it’s like driving a little motorcycle, and the Scoot Coupe doesn’t have pedals. We visited multiple beautiful places, and the views were absolutely amazing. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for something unique and exciting in Nice!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

10/10 Must do Experience!

Katy_V, Oct 2025

This was such a fun experience! You get to see so much more than you would just walking or using public transport! Hidden gems, scenic routes, and all the best spots. The host, Zack, was friendly, genuine, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the whole experience even more enjoyable with his great energy and local insights. The buggy itself was super fun to drive, easy to handle and perfect for exploring the area in a unique way. It felt safe, well-organised, and full of good vibes from start to finish. Would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a mix of adventure, sightseeing, and local culture. 10/10 all the way!

Discover the east side of Nice and its areas.

Nancy_C, Sep 2025

You will really enjoy it. You see more than you think and they look after you while you’re driving around. You have time for a coffee or an ice cream. See Nice from up high.
