I recently embarked on a 10-hour tour of the French Riviera, and it was an incredible experience! Our guide, Stephen, truly made the day unforgettable. His enthusiasm for the region was infectious, and his extensive knowledge about the history and culture enriched every stop we made. We explored iconic spots like Nice, Cannes, and Monaco, while also discovering charming hidden gems that most tourists miss. Stephen was great at ensuring we had ample time at each location, allowing us to soak in the stunning views and capture perfect photos. His attention to detail and ability to adapt the itinerary to our interests made the experience even more enjoyable. Stephen’s friendly demeanor created a warm atmosphere among our group, making us feel like we were exploring with a knowledgeable friend. This tour was the perfect way to experience the beauty of the French Riviera in one day. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure!

Isa was such a great host! she was entertaining and kept us informed of so much history and culture! we had more than adequate time at each stop to explore. it was a really beautiful day! we also felt like we had expert advice for restaurants and what to check out. really glad we chose this tour over some of the others that are available! also, a note to say that whilst it doesn't specifically imply it's a small group it is. there was 7 of us in the morning and by the afternoon just 4 which was perfect! no massive coaches and so we were able to get some really incredible views.

Hello Team Greetings from Germany Today we did Full day French Riveria with Mike / Michael and I truly appreciate his enthusiasm, knowledge, and leadership throughout the tour. Your patience, and ability to keep everything well-organized made the experience smooth and enjoyable for my fmaily. Your storytelling and insights added a special touch, making each destination even more fascinating. Thank you for being approachable and ensuring everyone felt comfortable and engaged. Looking forward to more adventures with you in the future."

The day was great fun. The guide, Stefan, was informative and a lot of fun. There was plenty to see and do. I don't think Antibes was worth visiting, given that we visted two other, more extensive 13th Century villages. The extra time could have been allocated to St Paul de Vence so that we didn't have to rush lunch.

Our tour guide, Andreas, provided us a lot of information. He knows where to have good pictures as well. We very much enjoy the ride and highly recommend the tour to people with less time in Nice or don't know where to go.
