Awesome tour from Mr. Julian from Nice to Monaco.

Marion R, Dec 2024

We had a lovely time on the 7 hour tour which Mr. Julian picked us up at our hotel. The air conditioning in the van was nice since the weather was 87 degrees f / 30 degrees c. We enjoyed Eze Village and learned a lot at the perfume factory. Surprisingly the perfume did not cause any allergies for me. Most likely it was due to better ingredients than we have in the US. Mr. Julian gave us a great tour from Nice to Monte Carlo and stopped along the way to very interesting sites. My husband, son and I had a wonderful time learning about the historical sites and the French culture. Definitely recommend this tour to my friends and family!

A great relaxing day trip

The driver was knowledgeable and helpful.

Nice to go on a small group and not be rushed. There ample time to explore by ourselves

Really lovely tour!

Laura_B, Dec 2024

Our tour guide, Irene, was the best! Great driver, too. She provided lots of history and insight into Nice and Monaco. We had plenty of time to explore each location on our own. Monaco was so interesting. Just remember to bring your passport if you want to enter the casino's playing area.

Not as expected at all.

shweta96, Dec 2024

We booked a trip in advance looking at the reviews. It was bad decision. Our guide/driver was sweet lady but because they added another big family of 6 with us and picked us up 30 minutes late , we were thrown in the back seats for entire trip. We were not able to hear anything and did not had any view for entire trip.

It is small van. Not professional at all. Absolutely waste of time and money.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

We were surprised to read it. The guide has a microphone in the minivan, so you should be able to hear her clearly. Please note that you booked a small, shared group tour, which means there are other people with you. If you wanted a private experience, a private tour would have been the better option.

We will take your feedback into consideration to improve our services.

We wish you all the best!

Amazing experience. The...
