Ingrid is full of historic, trivia, & tidbit facts/information about the entire French Riviera. We hired her for 2 days and she never disappointed us. Learned much about Nice, coastline, Eze, Monaco, Monte Carlo. 3 countries in ONE hour - she made it happened! France, Italy & Monaco. She told us it was the "perfect" time of the year to visit - few tourists & reduced prices, including hotel & shops. 2nd day was spent in Antibes (where Picasso lived 5 months/1946), small family run winery, St. Paul de Vence & more. Picnics both days - breathtaking views of countryside. She brought cloth tablecloths/wine glasses - niceities to add to experience!.Our trip seems surreal now, but we have boundless treasured memories thanks to Ingrid!

What if I told you that there is a hidden gem in the North, a place that few people regard, totally off the beaten path yet only 2 hours away from Milan… what if I told you that this place, nevertheless, once used to be the dominating force in the Mediterranean? What if I told you Christopher Columbus and Marco Polo… what if I told you Italy’s main harbour, where almost all emigrants left from towards the United States of America, and so maybe even your own Italian ancestors? A city you have never seen before as such, great in its medieval glory, devotional to the sea yet embraced by tall mountains, the most densely built medieval city centre of Europe, buildings as old as 900 years yet still normally inhabited - daily life and hidden activities? Oh you would only dream to visit such a town, if only you knew it existed. This I heard so often before: If only I knew … Well, now you know. Don’t miss Genoa. I will take you there.

Inclusions: Private transportation

Exclusions: No food and beverages included.

I walked straight from plane to exit - but driver didnt wait for me. I was not late! They were unable to offer a later shuttle. Told to get a cab.. disgusting service. Have not offered a refund and after no response from Expedia. I am now trying to dispute this via my credit card company.

We had the best day with our driver Daniel for the "Chianti Best" tour. I would recommend this to everybody. Our driver was super knowledgable and friendly and made seeing all these beautiful places so convenient and fun with so much great background information. I would book the "I Just Drive" service for any tour. Financially you get so much for your money - Highly, highly advise.
