Our tour guide managed our time very well. She was very knowledgeable of the history and culture. Through out our tour we got insight of everyday living and history of Antibes, Cannes, Monaco, Eze, and Parfumerie Fragonard-L'usine. We had sufficient time to explore and enjoy on our own.

Tour guide's command of English was impeccable. She was on her game and we loved the stops she made to show us the small town of Eze and the best overlooks for vistas!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Our guide Adrienne was outstanding.
Review by: dereknottingham, April 2018
I loved that this tour was able to get us to a lot of the surrounding areas of Nice Cannes, Antibes, St. Paul, Eze, and Monaco all in a day. Of course, we would have loved to spend more time in each place, and the tour is jammed pack full and does feel rushed, but we knew that when we booked it. I am certainly glad to have been able to get to these places during our holiday. This was a great way to do it. The only thing I would change is to eliminate the perfume factory tour. It was more of a sales pitch than a tour, and it did take away a chunk of the limited time we had for the tour as a whole. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, although a bit hard to communicate/understand from time to time.

Excellent trip, the landscape was just spectacular and our guide Adrian was just awesome. She was very informative and knowledgeable about the region. She provided excellent commentary through out the trip. One of the best day trip we had taken.

Excellent tour, the small group makes it easy to navigate and meet up on time. The trip is well planned and though there isnt a large ampunt of time at each stop ...it is enough to get a flavor of the area. We started our trip with this tour so we could decide where we wanted to spend the rest of our stay.
Review by: Kim K, March 2018
THE tour was amazing but our driver was not. As he almost hit two young women in crowded Nice, he stopped the van, got out, door open, traffic behind and screamed at them for a full minute. Then got back in the car, turned around and blamed My daughters and i for being late ( he was late too!)
Review by: Gary J, February 2018
Our host Caroline was excellent. Really friendly, helpful and informative. The day is quite long and with hindsight I would probably have chosen a trip that excluded Cannes and possibly Antibes and concentrated more on Monaco but that is my fault not Viator's! I would also ditch the perfume factory tour. If you want to see as many places as possible in one day then it is a good trip but if you want fewer places at a more relaxed pace then look elsewhere.

This tour was amazing!

Amazing tour, loved the guide!
Review by: Faridah Bakar Ali, December 2017
super trip but wasted a lot of time in the needless perfume factory and therefore had less time in the other places.
Review by: Carol D, November 2017
Our tour guide was lovely and very informative, I thing the perfume factory is a waste of time, they just try to sell you perfume._br/_ I think more time should be given for lunch or warned to bring packed lunch. otherwise a great glimpse of locations which we chose to go back to and spent the day.

Review by: achen, October 2017
This trip was pretty amazing actually. My girlfriend and I enjoyed the different cities along the French Riviera. Sylvia, our guide and driver was very knowledgeable and also a delight on the journey. She catered to our every need and was very generous with the amount of time at each location so that we had enough time to truly explore the surroundings. This is easily one of the best tours to see many cities all at once and to sample which ones you may like to come back and visit in the future.
Review by: Drew K, October 2017
Great trip. Only negatives really were our tour guide/driver spent too much time complaining about world events and overall the day was rushed but it's very difficult to go to all of these places in one day. Eze was amazing, it's definitely worth the 6 Euro to go to the top of the hill.
Review by: Lori B, October 2017
tour was amazing, guide was very knowledgeable, would highly recommend it. only thing missing was a tour of Nice
Review by: Ruben P, October 2017
Wonderful tour! Tour guide was super informative and accommodating.
Review by: Chrissie W, September 2017
Great tour! A bit rushed as there was so much to see but a perfect and knowledgeable host and a GREAT driver - definitely recommend if you have limited time and want to see as much as possible.
Review by: Paula B, September 2017
The tour was great! It's a long day though :)
Review by: Catherine J, September 2017
Saw a lot of fantastic things. Great to have the guided tour. One drawback- my husband and I were sharing the front passenger seat. It was cramped. Also, I had to ask a couple times for air conditioning on our 100-degree day. Not sure- was the driver trying to conserve? Had a fantastic time and it's a great way to see so many places. Our guide was terrific. We could never have seen so many places on our own. I wish I ran into the Picasso museum while there!
Review by: Jeffrey S, August 2017
The tour was wonderful the Driver and guide Rolf was informative and helpful made you feel it was a private tour. Best way to see cote d Azur.
Review by: Mimi J, August 2017
This tour is great, our guide Pier gave inside info so we know interesting facts about the area, quite compact activities, highly recommend!
Review by: Karen F, August 2017
We really enjoyed this trip. Loved to little town of Eze. This was one of my favourite trips during our 5 week European holiday.
Review by: LoulouLemon, August 2017
Our guide Evia was a superstar! Professional, considerate of each person's needs but fair. Great day spent doing as described in promo. Good amounts of time in each area of interest. Non - stop commentary of history. We would never habe seen as much info our own with little time. Highly recommend!
Review by: Suzanne L, August 2017
My daughter and I had a wonderful day and will always remember it fondly. Our tour guide Aviajah hope I spelled her name correctly was so informative, cheerful, fun and full of energy. She made the day a success for all of us. We started off in Antibes which was lovely - spent and hour walking around and enjoying the picturesque sights and the harbour. Cannes was our next stop and even though the actual town was nothing to write home about, it was still a must see. Then on to Monaco which was breathtaking - the views were unbelievable. Monte Carlo was next and wonderful also. Lastly Eze with its views - gorgeous. Everywhere we went we were allowed to get out and venture off on our own for an hour which was a great opportunity to grab a bite to eat or a gelato and venture in an out of the local shops. A nine hour tour went by way too quickly and I would not hesitate to do it again in the future. Truly one of my best vacation memories ever.
Review by: Kenneth E B, August 2017
This was a wonderful day trip in a comfortable van with just 7 people including our amazing guide. Amazing sights of Nice, Monaco, Cannes. We drove on the Monte Carlo raceway and finished off the day in Antibes. Nice shopping opportunities, galleries and beaches.
Review by: tbfish47, August 2017
The beauty and culture of the area was a pleasure to experience. Our guide was very pleasant and knowledgable. We recommend this trip highly.

This tour was amazing!
Review by: Beverley H, July 2017
Very good, interesting tour. Our guide, Rolf, was friendly, patient and knowledgeable.
Review by: mer0406, June 2017
I guess its not the fault of Viator, but I didn't quite understand that this was a drop off tour. We were picked up promptly at 9:00 and our guide, Caroline was nice. She seemed to be in a hurry and was on a tight schedule. I was used to our guides getting off the van and taking us places, explaining the area and going with us on the tour. She basically dropped us off at the corner and said I'll be back in an hour. Its a great, but quick tour of the cities listed. We got to spend 15 minutes at the Casino in Monte CArlo. Couldn't go in. We didn't have time to tour the palace in Monaco. There was not time to eat either, so bring a lunch or some snacks. You either had time to tour the city and see the sights or sit in a restaurant for an hour. I guess I need to do better research on the tours. If you are looking for something to just do a drive-by then this tour's for you. I don't feel like this was Caroline fault. She did exactly what the tour said, we saw all the towns listed,no matter how quickly. And I just thought it was a private tour with our friends, not 2 other couples.
Review by: Robert L M, June 2017
Our guide Rolf was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. He had amazing information and was able to keep us engrossed for the whole day. The van was very comfortable and Rolf is a very good and steady driver. None of us ever felt in the least worried even though the drive was through narrow and winding roads. _br/_ Rolf'so stories about Monaco and the royal family were engrossing. He obviously has a soft spot for Grace Kelly!_br/_ The time alloted for stops was generally good but the four of us would probably have traded some time in Cannes for a longer stay in Eze._br/_ We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone staying in Nice for more than a few days.
Review by: Rachel T, June 2017
We had the BEST time on our tour, Evia was a true gem! Highly knowledgeable, friendly, and had great tips. It's a lot to see in 1 day but a great way to see highlights of the Riviera when you don't have much time. Thanks again!
Review by: Riad, June 2017
a nice overview of the Riviera. gives you a compact idea on the area.
Review by: Kristin D, May 2017
Fun day! Our tour guide, Claudia. was very friendly and knowledgeable. We were able to see cities and areas we would never have known about on our own. There were 8 ppl in our group (which was the max) and it was a good amnt. The 9 hr day went quickly and was very enjoyable!
Review by: Margaret Sylvia, May 2017
We spent over one hour searching for other travellers booked on this 8 person tour. Very frustrating. Tour was not worth the money.

Review by: Rebecca P, November 2016
The tour was phenomenal and got great insight into the French Riveria. Tour guide was very informative
Review by: Teresa H, November 2016
Fabulous tour. Well worth doing.
Review by: Lori M, November 2016
This small group tour was the perfect way to see the highlights of the Southern Coast of France - our tour guide was friendly and highly knowledgeable. We even took her recommendation for dinner one night - and can vouch that it was a wonderful choice. We would have been happy to skip the perfume tour, however there were those in the group who loved it. All personal taste!
Review by: Danya H, October 2016
Amazing! My tour driver was fantastic and very knowledgeable. Wish we had more time in each of the towns but it is an amazing tour to do alot in a limited time!
Review by: Rajashree M, October 2016
We had a great day out in the French Riviera visiting several places. Our guide Joe was brilliant, passionate, very knowledgeable, and had many stories to tell. He made sure we were comfortable and enjoying. Its a fantastic and value for money tour I would highly recommend.
Review by: Con N, October 2016
The tour was so enjoyable for my family of 4. We would highly recommend this if you want to see all of the highlights of the French Riveria in a day. Rolf our tour guide was a big part of making the day special with his vast knowledge of the area, warm personality and useful tips.
Review by: bkyowell1, October 2016
We did not go to see Cannes............I would have liked that!
Review by: Sarahjane377, October 2016
great tour!! our guide Matilda was amazing, Very informative and we did so much in one day. Probably wouldn't recommend doing this tour in the weekend as a lot of shops were closed so when there was free time there wasn't a lot to do.
Review by: Laura, October 2016
What a wonderful way to spend the day and see other areas close to Nice. Antibe and Eze were our favorites. Amazing history and beautiful scenery. The tour was well-paced and Evia was a delightful leader. She had tremendous knowledge of not only the region but the history as well. A great one day sampler of the area.
