Good Value Short Trip
It was a fun short trip that took us to Villefranche-sur-Mer and along the Nice coast. The boat captain and crew were excellent.

Gorgeous Mediterranean Cruise
Great experience! We thoroughly enjoyed this Mediterranean cruise. An hour was just long enough to enjoy being out, but not have to revolve our day around the cruise. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and funny! Can be very busy, so try to get there early for a good seat. The cruise provided impeccable views!

Sad that an otherwise pleasant trip on a very nice boat was ruined by an incredibly loud and distorted comentary by someone who clearly didn't know how to use a microphone. Also, I wouldn't describe just going around the corner into Villefranche was a 'coastal cruise'.

Cancelled with no notification by supplier or Viator
Our cruise was cancelled upon arriving to check in. No pre communication from supplier or Viator, wasted 30Euro on an uber to join the activity. Cancellation was due to a port strike that day. Still waiting for formal cancellation information and a full refund.

The tour was fun. Had a little time trying to find the place. I called to get the exact location and the lady who answered the phone was rude to me. I called twice to get help and she said "you have already called and I already told you...." I was just trying to find the place as that was my first in France. However, The tour guides were polite and funny. Overall good tour.

Great boat trip with pleasant service
A very nice boat trip with skilled, friendly, and fun guides/staff on board. Fun to see Nice and Villa Franche Sur Mer from the sea.

Good Times Cruising the Mediterranean Sea
Pleasant sightseeing cruise. Short and enjoyable, it suited us well. We easily found outside seats. The only minor downside was that some people around us stayed standing and blocked the view for most of the cruise, though this didn't involve the staff. Overall, everyone was friendly and welcoming. This was our second time on this cruise (the ship seems slightly newer), and we'd happily do it again.

Boat cruise Nice, France
Got to boat ticket office and informed tour was canceled due a harbor struck, harbor was closed. Not really tour operators fault but they should have called me so I wouldn’t have had to pay a round trip Uber cost from the hotel - $50 euros.
