Just a wonderful way to see so much of the French Riviera and Monaco, and to do it from Cannes. Especially liked the visit to Saint-Paul-de-Vence and the opportunity to stroll through the village and peek into the many fine art shops. Our tour guide was amazing too. Thanks!

This was the best excursion of our cruise! Our guide, Thin, was amazing. We ended up being the only tour participants and he really tailored the experience to us. Would highly recommend this tour as it provided a wonderful look at the Cote d’Azure. Thank you Thin!

The tour was great to see the sights, yet for the per price rate I definitely anticipated a guided tour at each stop. I’m also accustomed to the tour guide pricing water for the group, which also was not provided. We unfortunately got lost at two of the sites and missed quite a bit since we were on our own and concerned about not getting back to a meeting point timely. All in all, not worth the $450 I spent for my family.

Fantastic full day tour. It turned out we were the only 2 for part of the day, as the others in our group were booked on a half day tour for the afternoon. No worries, as our guide Ben gave us a little more freedom in the morning and we had some more time in Nice, where we ended up having a very nice lunch. This is more of a guided taxi with drop offs and personal time to explore, than a full guided tour. That worked great for us. Trying to do that on our own for a full day would have been stressful. Our guide navigated the traffic and winding roads with ease.
