The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Answered all our questions with knowledgeable information.
This tour was a great way to see several highlights of the French Riviera in a single day. We were able to visit some beautiful and iconic locations, including Èze, Monaco, and Monte Carlo, and the scenery throughout the day was absolutely stunning. Our guide, Billie, was very friendly, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job sharing information about the history, culture, and landmarks we visited. She worked hard to fit everything into what is a very full day of driving, walking, and sightseeing while keeping the tour organized and enjoyable. Prospective travelers should know that this is a busy, fast-paced tour with a lot packed into one day. There is quite a bit of driving and walking involved, but it is well worth it if you want to experience several of the French Riviera's most famous destinations in a short amount of time. Overall, this was a memorable excursion and a great introduction to the French Riviera. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to maximize their time in the area.
Thank you very much for your review. It helps us a lot. Kind regards, Billie

Total luxury vibes! 🏎️💎 Driving from Nice into Monaco and Monte Carlo felt like being in a James Bond movie. Getting to see the casino, the palace, and then stopping at the stunning village of Eze made this the absolute best full-day tour we booked. If you want a taste of the glamorous Riviera life, don't skip this!

Monaco and Monte Carlo are pure luxury—getting to see the casino and the F1 track up close was wild. But honestly, Eze stole the show for me. The views from the top are unmatched. Perfect day out, super smooth, and totally worth the money.
Thank you very much for your review. It helps us a lot. Kind regards, Billie
Billie was an awesome tour guide! She called prior to meeting us at the Nice cruise terminal to let us know her ETA etc. She is a sole proprietor and she has a van that comfortably holds 6-8 people. We had 4 in our family and she had booked 2 others from our cruise. From Nice she drove us to Monaco, Monte Carlo along the Formula 1 Grand Prix which was so cool as they are setting it up for upcoming event. She gave us an ample amount of time to visit the infamous Monte Carlo Casino and surroundings. After that she drove us to the castle of Monaco's Prince & Princess. Guided us through the beautiful gardens that led to the Castle. She got us there in time for the changing of the guard. Which is a part of her tour plans. She then left to give us enough time to tour the area and have lunch on our own. Following, she took us to Eze Village and the perfume factory which was very nice and interesting to see. My family (wife, sister and BIL) had an awesome day and agreed that Billie is the best guide. We would highly recommend this tour when porting in Nice!
