Very fun and scenic way to see the city! Our tour guide was very friendly and even came back to get us when we arrived late due to our Uber. We enjoyed touring the city, the scenic stops as well as the friendly service! Worth the price!

Amazing experience! I am so happy we decided to do the panoramic tour. We toured Nice, VilleFranche-Sur-Mer, Fort du Mont Alban. Amazing tour guide, extremely friendly and knowledgeable of the surrounding area. If you are in the area this is a must do!

Heather_C, Jul 2026
This was fun. Beautiful sites and the guide was friendly. It would have been great if we stopped at the more tourist areas outside of old town.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Our itinerary is designed to combine some of the French Riviera’s most scenic viewpoints with a relaxed drive, while avoiding the busiest tourist areas whenever possible.

Jaime_D, Jul 2026
This was our favorite excursion of our entire trip to the South of France! Driving the open-top electric car was such a unique and fun way to see Nice, with incredible views and plenty of photo opportunities along the way. Our guide was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. He even played great music that made the drive even more memorable. We had an amazing day and would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the French Riviera. A definite highlight of our vacation!

Great views. But physically painful

Wendi_P, Jul 2026
The locations are beautiful. Guide was nice.. Biggest issue is the cars. No padding and super bumpy. Pay more and get a better car is our recommendation.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for your feedback and for your kind words about our guide and the beautiful scenery. We’re sorry to hear that you found the ride uncomfortable. Our small electric vehicles are intentionally lightweight and open-air to provide a unique and fun driving experience rather than the comfort of a traditional car. While most guests enjoy this go-kart-like feeling, we understand that it may not suit everyone’s expectations. We appreciate your comments and are glad you still enjoyed the tour and the stunning views of the French Riviera. We wish you safe and happy travels!

Fun way to your!!!

Kristy_G, Jul 2026
This tour was more of an intimate way to see the city. We were able to go and see places that large tour buses could not do. Our guide gave us history on the stops. Overall, this was fun!!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must-Do in Nice!

Michael_G, Jul 2026
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must-Do in Nice! Traveling with my husband, another couple, and a friend, we all agreed this was one of the highlights of our trip! The electric cars were easy and fun to drive, and our guide was friendly, informative, and made everyone feel comfortable. The route took us through Nice and to spectacular overlooks with breathtaking views of Villefranche-sur-Mer and the Mediterranean, with plenty of stops for photos. It was the perfect mix of sightseeing, adventure, and laughter. If you’re visiting Nice, don’t miss this experience. It’s a unique and unforgettable way to see the French Riviera, and we’d all highly recommend it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Beautiful trip through Nice

The experience was our most favorite of the whole trip. We saw so many beautiful parts of the French Riviera that we would like to revisit. Zakaria was our tour guide and he checked in on us and gave us helpful suggestions. We would recommend this trip to anyone we know! Thank you :)

Electric Car Tour

Sara_Q, Jul 2026
We had so much fun! The carts are easy to drive - there is no gas pedal, driving is more like a motorcycle. We went to places we had not been before and it was so nice to cruise along in an open top car. Highly recommend. There is no bathroom where the tour starts!!

Definitely recommend

Louise_B, Jun 2026
Easy to drive and provided a welcome breeze in hot weather. Antonio was very friendly and took us to a few places outside Nice.

Soooo Fun !!!

Belinda_A, Jun 2026
This was such a fun way to see the city!!!!!!!!! Our tour guide was great. This is a wonderful and interactive way to have fun and see the city. Fun for adults and kids.

Nice Drive thru Nice!

Caryn_M, Jun 2026
This was so much fun!!! We truly enjoyed our evening in Nice with this self driving tour!! We did ours in the evening and it was perfect weather!! Many stops along the way to hear the history of Nice and fun facts, too! We would do this tour again!!!

Wonderful driving experience around Nice with the best views!

Yeyi_H, Jun 2026
This experience was amazing!!!!! Julia was our tour guide. She was so much fun, always looking behind her to ensure she wouldn't leave us behind. We drove in the little convertible cars all over Nice. They were like Go karts with plenty of leg room. I didnt have any cash left that day and I was late for dinner after the excursion so I couldn't give her a tip though she well deserved it. She spoke perfect English and she allowed us to roam freely, and took us through really cool serpentine roads that allowed us to floor the gas pedal. I would totally do this. Teens and kids 8 and over should be fine, the carts have seat belts, as long as they follow instructions.

Great experience with...

Do it yourself

Surbhi_A, Jun 2026
It was nice if you want to enjoy the cool breeze and riding in a mini car but other than that not much

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your review. To provide some context for future readers: your reservation was made for 2 people, but you arrived with 3, including a child. Unfortunately, French law does not allow a child to sit on an adult’s lap in our vehicles, which are strictly limited to two seats. As a result, an additional seat had to be purchased. We then did our best to help and, thanks to the kindness of another customer, your child was able to join the tour in a separate vehicle. We’re sorry that you did not fully enjoy the experience, especially since the other participants on the same tour left 5-star reviews and had a wonderful time. We feel that your disappointment may be related more to the application of safety regulations than to the tour itself. Safety rules apply equally to all guests, and we cannot make exceptions, even when it may be inconvenient. We wish you all the best and thank you for visiting the French Riviera with us.

Super Fun

Emile was fantastic! We had a lovely drive with scenic stops. Our guide, Emile, was knowledgeable and even took some pictures for us! A fantastic way to see some beautiful views!

Great way for tour

Glenn_S, Jun 2026
Had a great time. Very good way to get to the good views. Our guide went out of his way to get us to the right bus stop after the activity

Highly recommend, great for a family of 4 with 2 teenagers!

Carrington_A, Jun 2026
We did 12 tours over our two weeks in Europe and this was our favorite. We have a 14 year old son and a 16 year old daughter and they both loved this! The vehicles are easy to use and even though it was a HOT day, having an open air vehicle provided a much needed breeze so the weather never felt as bad when we were moving. The views were exceptional (side note, the night before we had done a small boat tour to see some of the same areas. The two tours complimented each other because it was great to see so many beautiful areas from separate angles, but if you do that I would recommend doing the boat first then these cars - you appreciate what you are seeing when you are in the cars and the views can't be beat). As we went through the towns people all waived and some took pictures but it was more engaging than making us feel silly. At one point a driver behind us honked and I was worried we may have been going too slow, but he smiled and gave us the thumbs up and waived before he turned another way. At one point our two vehicles didn't make the light with the other two cars and the leader but the leader was great about pulling off so we could catch up. Great time and highly recommend!
