Don’t hesitate, book now! An amazing experience!
Phillipe is an incredible skipper and host. He made the experience so enjoyable. His passion and knowledge of the region and captivating story-telling makes the time spent on the boat that much better! The boat is well equipped and it was great to be able to use the paddle boards! I would 100% recommend this experience and look forward to doing it again!

Incredible experience
Best thing we did on the whole Riviera. I asked Philippe if we could find a spot to jump off some rocks, and he took us to the perfect one and jumped in with us. Genuinely nice guy, knows the history of the area and told interesting stories all day. Worth booking the full day for an unforgettable experience.

Amazing tour
Phillippe was an AMAZING skipper on this private tour! This was our first activity on our trip around the French Riviera and Phillipe made sure to keep us awake by captivating facts. The views were gorgeous on every stop and my husband and I could not have asked for a better experience. The boat was equipped with paddle boards and snorkel gear that really elevated our swim. If we're ever back, we'd definitely book this experience again to swim around the islands. Phillippe was also a great sport to be around! Thanks, Phillippe!

The Highlight of Our Côte d’Azur Trip
Philippe was an exceptional guide for our morning excursion to the Lérins Islands! He was punctual, highly experienced, and incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating history and fun facts about the area throughout the trip.
He knew exactly where to stop to make the most of our time on the water and made the experience feel effortless. We had both a 7-year-old and an 80-year-old in our group, and Philippe was equally charming, patient, and helpful with both.
I highly recommend Philippe and would happily hire him again if we make it back to France’s beautiful southern coast!

Fantastic experience for our family of 5!
The memorable experience with Philippe was the highlight of our family’s French Riviera vacation last month! He took time and care at the outset to ask our preferences, then designed a highly customized tour that included learning from his deep knowledge of the region’s history and geography, helping our kids practice French, and arranging lunch delivery from the ‘pizza boat’!

Great time on the water!
This was a wonderful way to see the beautiful riviera from the water. Stopping at Larins islands was such a cool perk. Water was incredible as well. Phillipe was an outstanding tour guide; informative, accommodating and professional. Don’t miss this tour!

The best skipper in Cannes!
Sailing with Phillipe was fantastic - he was so knowledgeable about the Cannes and the islands, and is a wonderfully warm host. He made finding him on the morning super easy and was really communicative. We loved the paddle boarding and snorkelling. This was the highlight of our trip!

This was an incredible...
This was an incredible experience! The views throughout the excursion were beautiful with stops all around the area. Philippe is awesome, he’s incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and has a clear passion for history and the area. He even took time to help me practice my not so great French which was really kind of him. I highly reccomend!
