Highlights
-
Cannes - drive from there to the the scintillating town of Cannes, cradle of today’s number one Film Festival in the world. Facing the Palace of Festivals and Congresses, you might feel like walking up
‘the 24 steps of glory’ and perhaps strike your most graceful pose on the red carpet. - Antibes - You will then take the coastal road to Antibes, a town which played the role of sentinel for the country during many centuries, hence its ramparts circling the Old Town
- St-Paul-de-Vence - Saint-Paul-de-Vence will enchant you. When walking through the mesmerizing maze of cobbled streets with their numerous listed monuments it becomes clear how this medieval village appealed to a vast number of artists with the likes of Matisse, Modigliani, Chagall or Picasso instilling a definite artistic touch that one can now ascertain when gazing at the windows of the countless art galleries. The quaint village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence as their ideal retreat when coming to stay on the Riviera.
- Eze - You will then take a halt to venture into one of France’s prettiest villages: Eze, filled with history and offering a stunning location over 400 meters right above sea, a truly unique place on earth. Meet up again with your driver and, just around the corner, seize the chance to visit the renowned Fragonard Perfume Factory and discover the secrets of this realm of fragrances.
- La Turbie - on the road again you will proceed up the coast and reach the Grande Corniche, the highest road from where you can catch sight of the most ancient Roman vestige on the French Riviera: the ‘Trophy of the Alps’ in the village of La Turbie.
-
Monaco - descent towards the state-city of Monaco and its Palace on the ‘Rock’. You will be given some free time to wander around the old town, admire the view from St. Martin Gardens and visit Monaco’s Cathedral. Then, you will be literally back on track with your guide as he will drive you from start to finish on the street circuit of the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix! Make a stop at Monte-Carlo’s Casino and its display of luxury cars and get the chance to gamble few coins inside this magnificent building (entrance costs

Couples trip to nice - Amazing day and an amazing guide Ben arrived in time in an immaculate van and tailored our trip to what we wanted. He was attentive and asked us what we wanted to see and even came up with some hidden gems. We didn't know anything about from start to finish. It was wonderful.

A must for 1st timers! - This tour was well worth every dollar (imo) because we get a taste of the French Riviera in one day. We hit all the popular places without even having to figure out our itinerary. Trinh, our private guide, showed up before our scheduled time and waited for us. He asked what we wanted to see and showed us those areas (Cannes and Monaco) plus more (Eze village, etc.). He took us to every photo opt places so we can take home our memories. What’s great about all this is how we can conveniently leave our stuff in his minivan without any issues. Trinh spent a lot of time explaining the histories of each city/village that we went to. Spent a good 2 hours in Monaco and had lunch there. Great option for anyone traveling with a little one and/or older parents. Thanks, Trinh!

A GREAT tour to learn about the region of Nice, Cannes and Monaco! - This tour was AMAZING!! Belo, our tour guide was a joy to be with. He picked us up at a meeting hotel showing up early, charismatic and warm, we felt almost immediately we were off to a great day! His van was very clean and accommodated all 6 of us very comfortably. Belo was very professional, polite and knew the history of the Nice, Cannes, Antibes, St Paul de Vence and Monaco like the back of his hand! With a wealth of knowledge, it made our whole experience very interesting and informative. We didn’t feel rushed and he communicated great. We knew how much time we had at each location and meeting points to ensure a smooth trip. As someone that does a LOT of research before booking a service, we felt Belo went out of his way to provide us with the experience of a lifetime. He made a point to stop to admire the best views and photo opportunities. I would recommend this to anyone looking to get to know the area of Nice, Cannes and Monaco in depth.
Needless to say we will book tours with him again on our next trip!!

French Riviera and Monaco Small Group Tour - Excellent full day tour with Sabine. She was our driver and tour guide. Sabine explained the history of the region and of each town and she also gave us flexibility as to how long we wanted to tour in each town. She was extremely kind and considerate to all 4 passengers. Her driving skills were excellent. We would had never seen all the town's we did in one day if we just had caught the bus and went on our own. My husband and I highly recommend this tour and sincerely thank Sabine.

A day with Xavier - We did a full day French Riviera tour with Xavier. He was superb as a guide and helped us plan the day so that we could best manage the time, see places, yet get to spend time at each destination.
Antibes, St Paul, Monaco, Fragonard factory. Remembering it all again today is like a dream. Conversation with Xavier was excellent and at each place we would get some new titbit of information. One that jumps to mind is he pointed out the Chateau whose coat Coco Chanel chose as her symbol.
Difficult to recount all that we experienced. But in short a highly recommended tour option.

Amazing experience - Very interesting it was. Full day tour from Port Grimaud / had to pay extra for door to door option/ .
We were pleased with the driver/host . Manage to see a lot for 8 hours when you think that half of the time we were traveling. We had morning coffee in Nice, lunch in Saint Paul de Vence and brief walk along Le Croisette in Cannes .
If there was an option not to pay extra for picking up, and drop off we would book at least one more day , because we wanted to go a bit further and see a bit more places, and time was not enough. But over all we had a great time. Would recommend it highly for all that stay local to the agency so they can enjoy more sight seeings without extra pay and have less travel time..
