“I recently took the “French Riviera in One Day” tour, and it ended up being one of the absolute highlights of my time in the region. What made it truly exceptional was our guide, Samantha. From the moment the tour began, Samantha set the tone with her friendly energy, clear communication, and genuine passion for the Riviera. She struck that perfect balance between being incredibly knowledgeable and keeping everything light, engaging, and fun. Every stop—whether it was the sweeping views over Èze, the elegance of Monaco, or the colourful charm of Antibes—came alive through the stories and insights she shared. The itinerary itself was fantastic, but Samantha elevated it into…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 155 reviews · 8 hours · from $132

Provence countryside day trip from Nice with Cannes, Grasse perfume, Gourdon views, Loup Gorges, and Saint-Paul de Vence, guided in a small group.

“Thoroughly enjoyed it; although, I would have liked more time in Cannes. We really only had about 35 minutes there - not enough to time to venture off from our drop off point, directly in front of the theatre. Plus, it was early and nothing was open. The stop at the perfume factory was nice for me, but my husband was not in to it. There wasn’t anything worth buying (in my opinion) - I found the scents too strong and nauseating. But, I now know how “they” make their perfumes, colognes, etc. The rest of the tour was amazing and certainly makes up for the first part of the…”

10.Eze, Monaco, and Monte Carlo Half-Day Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 124 reviews · 5 hours · from $153

Half-day Riviera trip from Nice to Eze, Monaco and Monte Carlo. Walk medieval alleys, tour Old Town, see F1 track sights.

“I was happy to see a few locations that would have been a bit difficult to get to without a car. The transportation was a Mercedes van which was nice and there were only 4 of us on the tour so we had space. It was air conditioned which was a necessity in the summer heat. We did the Fragonard tour in Eze which is nice if you haven’t done it yet (we did it in Grasse so it was a repeat for us). You get less than an hour in each location and we only had 20 minutes in Monte Carlo. I think there are longer tours if you…”

12.Cannes, Grasse, Gourdon, & Saint-Paul-de-Vence /Day Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 68 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $156

Small-group Riviera day trip from Nice to Cannes, Grasse Fragonard, Gourdon views, and Saint-Paul-de-Vence, with hotel pickup.

“The views from every place we visited were breathtaking. I only wish we had more time at each town, it felt a little rushed to me. Going to 4 towns in 1 day is a lot, which did not allow for enough time to enjoy each location. Grasse is one of the stops, which included the tour at Fragonard and it was fun. I would have preferred if our driver/guide Eric asked us if we wanted to have lunch in Grasse or Gourdon. We spent a lot of time in Grasse for the tour, so that resulted in only 30 minutes at Cannes and Gourdon and 45 minutes at Saint-Paul-de-Vence.…”

Frank was always on time, and we never had to wait for him. His car was spotless and very comfortable, which made the day even more enjoyable. Frank’s knowledge of the region was outstanding.
