“Laurent (like Yves Saint Laurent, without the Yves Saint) was our guide, and he was passionate, time conscious and an excellent guide throughout. He was clear about keeping to the schedule, which I highly appreciated. He collected us from our accommodation in Nice and took us to all the towns included in the tour. My personal favourite stops were St Paul de Vence and Eze, and I recommend hiking up to the Eze botanical garden for stunning views. Monaco old town comes in a close third. I highly recommend this tour.”

He took the time to get to know each participant, then pointed out topics or areas of interest accordingly. I have been to Antibbes and Cannes and others before, and yet? I finally feel like I understand the differences between each. The pace was fantastic, too: Enough time in each location without feeling rushed. The only thing I would have preferred is longer in Monacco to see the Oceanagrophique. But! This allowed me to see it and now I can come back, spend the days and time within the…”

An unforgettable experience which we’d recommend to anyone visiting magical Monaco!!! An adrenaline fuelled walk with top class guides…”
