The tour guide Parfait picked us from our hotel. He was very friendly. He stopped at some cool view points and even helped with taking photos. He also shared his knowledge with us about the history behind the places we visited including Chanel. We were on time for the change of guards at palais princier which was very nice. I would have liked some point in Eze to visit the garden. Also it was a shame that the F1 circuit was only opened to bicycles, therefore missed out on this. Overall I would highly recommend this tour.

Yonne arrived on time with a name sign to pick me up at the cruise terminal. She was driving a new luxury Mercedes van and she is a very good driver which is a real performance when you know how it is difficult to drive in France where nobody respects basic driving rules !! so I feel safe the whole tour with Yvonne I was definitalely in very good hands. The day spent too quickly indeed this private tour was so informative and interesting thanks to my nice local guide. Don´t hesitate to book her if you want to spend an unforgetable day and come back safe...

Ben’s customer’s service is outstanding! He speaks fluent English. We went to a lot of “must see” places and he brought us to the wonderful panoramic views of the city. He was also very accommodating to take our photos as requested. He gave us all cold and thirst quenching water which was a life-saver on this hot summer day. He gave us ample time to tour around, although the time in Monaco was a bit too tight since we had our lunch there & 1 hour is not enough for everything, oh well, the restaurant took a long time to prepare my food & so I ran out of time to buy souvenirs. Lesson of the story is — just order a quick & simple food on the menu. Otherwise, everything went smoothly, the whole group was actually in sync with each other although we all just met, we even had a singing time while traveling, yes, we all got along so well!!! Ben, was singing at some point, too— we all had a good laugh— no boring moments & it made the day more fun, enjoyable & memorable.

we visited only one Rass winery, and in the review it was announced that we would visit 3 wineries. I do not like this. It made a bad impression on me that when we arrived at the Rass winery we were greeted with the finding that they had already closed for tourists today, but as a compromise they would take the trouble to open for us. The winery was not typical of Provence. There are also better wineries in the area, I expected more ...

My husband and I were visiting Nice prior to embarking on Emerald Waterways River Cruise of Lyon and Provence. After being disappointed with our walking and motor coach tour in Nice, we decided to book this tour recommended by our concierge at Splendid Hotel. They were fully booked for the full day tour so we opted to take the half-day tour of St. Paul, Antibes & Cannes 65 e per person. WHAT A BARGAIN! Antonio picked us up at the hotel. As he drove, he provided us with a commentary of the landmarks and famous sites along the way. He was an extremely careful driver and very knowledgeable of the French Riviera. According to available literature, "St. Paul de Vence is a medieval village, sheltered behind its ramparts is for sure one of the most beautiful places in the world. Discovered by famous painters, St. Paul is fascinating not only for its charm but also for its great cultural and artistic influences. "The natural beauty of Antibes remains in the old town with the ramparts along the sea and the arched wall along the marina. There are plenty of little streets to explore. Marvel at the world's largest yachts in the Port Vauban and the largest marina in the French Mediterranean. "So many things to see in Cannes! Embellished by palm trees and fine sandy beaches. Famous cafe-terraces, elegant shops and deluxe hotels have made it famous around the world. Discover the film festival and conference center. Free time to stroll and shop as well." Departure at 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. Cash only! The only negative of the tour since most seniors do not carry a lot of cash for obvious reasons. If we can afford a $15,000 river cruise, I think we are good for over 100 e (per couple) on our credit card. PLEASE CHANGE THAT RULE! As I stated to the booking agent, you don't need a credit machine to take credit. USE THE CREDIT FORM! Unbelievably fantastic photographs. DO NOT MISS THIS TOUR!
