We had a fabulous tour of Nice, Eze, Monaco and Monte Carlo with Sebastian. We were a group of seven and fit very comfortably into his Mercedes Van. Seven people often want different things, but Sebastian was very quick to understand our desires for the tour. He was extremely knowledgeable and had a very fun approach to his explantations. We realized pretty quickly that a half day tour was going to be too short and Sebastian was able to call his manager and convert it to a full day tour very easily. After the tour, we invited him to sit with us at our hotel for a few minutes. We were discussing our plans for the next day and without a moments hesitation, he offered to show us how to get tickets to the tram and even stayed with us until he was sure we understood exactly what to do. That is going way above and beyond our expectations and was so very appreciated! . We highly recommend this tour and Sebastian.
Bonjour Joan, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! we're absolutely thrilled to hear that our guide Sebastian made a such fantastic impression on you.

Great Tour with an Excellent Guide! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful morning exploring Èze, Monaco. The tour was well-organized. Our guide, Fred, was fantastic, friendly, informative! Highly recommend this experience for anyone staying in Nice!

Unique experience. Exceptional guide with exhaustive explanation. Congratulations to Valentine, impeccable driving.
We were looking for a 1/2 day tour of Eze and Monaco and Valentine certainly delivered. His main concern was making sure we were happy and being taken care of. We saw all the sites and more and he was a very good and safe driver. Great job Valentine.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that Valentine ensured you had a great half-day tour of Eze and Monaco, and that you felt well cared for throughout. It’s great to know you enjoyed the sights and appreciated his safe driving. We’ll be sure to pass on your compliments to Valentine! Best regards, A LA FRANCAISE!
This was a five hour trip along the coastline up to Eze, Monaco and the Monti Carlo. There were eight guests crammed into a van, all middle aged adults, and one was expected to sit in the middle front with no leg room at all. Guests were generous to play musical chairs for the comfort of others but it was less than ideal and a hot day. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, and she explained a lot about the history along the way, which was great! But, she moved with the speed of a rabbit and not the speed of the group. The time spent at the perfumery was interesting but more of a sales pitch, as there was no production to see on a Saturday. I would have much preferred to skip this and have had more time to see Monaco and sites there. The free time at each stop was very rushed and unrealistic and then back into a cramped van that had heated up. It was uncomfortable and tiring overall.
Dear Susan, Thank you for sharing your experience. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed our guide’s friendliness and the historical insights during this small group tour. Your satisfaction is very important to us, and we value all feedback as it helps us to offer the best possible experiences. For a more extended journey, we also offer a 6-hours afternoon tour to Monaco, Monte Carlo, and Eze. Additionally, we offer private tours with a dedicated vehicle, providing a fully tailor-made experience. Warm regards, A la Française Team

It means a lot to us to receive such high praise. Thank you again for the strong recommendation! Best regards, A LA FRANCAISE!
Valentin was a wonderful tour guide. He navigated the road to Monte Carlo safely and was a wealth of knowledge along the way. We had a great time at Fragonard learning about perfuming. Then on to Monaco! It was a beautiful trip and we learned so much. Highly recommend!
