A great tour - Found the Casino very disappointing, paid to go in but this only let us into a very little area that contained mainly slot machines. Few tables were open, Blackjack was full. Texas poker had no one playing so sat down. I had never played this game before but did so want to play something 100 Euros and about 3 hands later I left. Very very disappointing as I really wanted to have a flutter you know, win a little loose a little and have an entertaining evening. But tour itself very good. Good watching people come and go. Don't let me put you of the tour - just don't bother going into the Cassino.

Unless you are interested in just spending your time in the casino, this tour was definitely not worth the money. It was extremely overpriced. The food was not great and we were seated at the back of the outdoor eating area - no view, no atmosphere. For two hours we then had to spend time wondering around the outside of the casino. We had not realised that the town was closed to tourists in the evenings and as we had been inside the casino on a previous trip, we were not interested in going in again. Information on this tour should indicate that unless you plan on going into the casino, there is very little to do once you have finished your disappointing meal. We had been looking forward to roaming the beautiful old town in the evening. They should also note that, as far as we could see, there was no where else to eat other than this overpriced restaurant beside the casino.

Excellent evening. Our driver, was punctual, knowledgeable, and funny. The trip did not disappoint, especially the lap of the grand prix circuit. Highly recommended.

An absolute brilliant evening,we were picked up dead on time at our hotel by Pierre our driver and guide for the evening his contribution to our excursion could only be described as outstanding.The meal in the cafe de paris was everything we had anticipated first rate service and delicious food and after the meal we managed to visit the casino for a cocktail.Not a cheap night but worth every penny.

As we were the only people on this trip, it was very personal. Had a lovely meal complete with wine then spent some time in the Casino which was well worth the 10 entrance fee for the lavish surroundings alone. Had a cocktail and people watched. Had a walk around the gardens, in which air freshener is pumped periodically which smells like really expensive aftershave. Slightly expensive, but as a one off, a real treat. Would highly recommend.

The trip started well. The evening meal was atrocious, so much so that the steward apologised profusely and offered to replace the meal. The meal was a curry, tasteless and the meat was so tough that we could not eat it. I am over 80 years old and this was the worst meal I have ever been served and that is not one bit of imagination. The chef should have been sacked. I was so cross and disappointed that I said no to the offer of another meal. Without asking, the steward brought me a very up market dessert, but as I had already had a dessert I gave it to a lady sitting on the next table. To make matters worse the driver of the minivan stopped at the local port to look at a ship which meant we got back to our hotel well after midnight. He also came back by another route through Eze which was not on his itinerary. Our tour next day was through Eze, so why make the first one so long?

Very nice
Review by: Melissa J, October 2016
Our host was amazing and very knowledgeable however I don't think the food at the restaurant was very good quality and the sites were extremely limited. I think for the money paid the day tours would've been much better. We would not recommend this tour.

Great evening out

It was great seeing the coast and Monaco at night. Driving along the Grand Prix when they were setting up the race was fantastic and our dining experience was great. Visiting the old Casino was interesting
