Amazing Tour - Alex was a fantastic guide. The drive to the beautiful city of Eze was so picturesque. We had just enough time to explore Eze, which was such a charming place and beautiful views. The perfumery was very educational. However, I think the highlight was Monaco. We took the tour only a few days after the Grand Prix and they were just disassembling everything. Alex gave us so much history of Monaco and Princess Grace. This tour went by so quickly and is a must do. Such a great experience.

One of the best tours! - Sabin was great. Very knowledgeable and has great driving skills! The trip was amazing. We saw all that Monaco has to offer in very short time and that perfumery visit was a big highlight. Overall 10/10. Book this trip!!

Fantastic (half) day trip! - Eze village was our favorite part, but every stop was worthwhile! Personally I could have skipped the perfume tour and spent more time in the towns. Our operator was very friendly and knowledgeable and helpful. The drive itself was gorgeous. Definitely a great way to see everything and spend a day!

Amazing views and and amazing tour guide - The views were the most amazing that we have seen anywhere in the world. Our guide Michael, did a wonderful job of narrating the points of interest and historical aspects of the areas and places. He was the best and most conscientious guide from the many excellent ones that we have had over the years. He puts all of his energy into his work and clearly loves what he does. The small size group allowed for plenty of questions and interaction. Our family thought Michael went beyond our expectations as a guide.

Great trip to Monaco. - The collection was smooth and the guide, Alex was knowledgeable about the area and was amenable to changing the route for the other people on our tour.
The stop at the perfumery was nice and then Monaco and Monte Carlo were amazing. Wish we had longer but we only booked a half day tour.
Absolutely recommend it / great afternoon

Disappointed - Was disappointed since there were many reviews extolling the virtues of this trip. We were picked up 30 minutes after our allotted time. We drive directly to Monaco, although the itinerary reflecting ed than we stop in Eze. As I was sitting in the back of the van, I could not hear anything the guide spoke.
