*Tour: Day tour (0850-1700) of Monaco, Eze, Nice/Saint Paul de Vence village *Guide: Guy Alfonsi (an absolute gem of a person and superior guide) *Background: Family of four adults searching... read more for a day tour experience to see the highlights of the French Riviera in <1 day, no prior connection to this company or really anything in Nice... Found this company and experience through our own google/Trip Advisor searches *Summary: This tour was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Nice, France and was truly an experience of a lifetime. If you are looking for a private, organized day filled with the best sites of the French Riviera (Cote d'Azur) with a reliable and knowledgable tour guide, this is the best decision you could possibly make. In my initial search for a tour of the French Riviera for my family, combing through the different links for various tours was sort of confusing, but then I came across Riviera Together Tours on Trip Advisor and pretty much counted on the reviews below (as well as their well put together website) and went ahead and booked it for the date we wanted. Guy is the owner of this company and responded to me right away to confirm my trip date, and what we wanted to see during our time together. From our email exchanges to his timely arrival on the day of our tour, to the entire tour itself, Guy was professional, easy to work with, friendly and truly just a nice human being you don't mind spending hours with. He also has a couple other tour guides that work with him in this company especially during the busy summer season; it is a small business and not some sort of massive chain tour company with lots of different people, which we loved. The tour itself exceed our expectations in every way imaginable. We covered everything from spectacular views of Nice to Monaco/Monte Carlo, Eze and finished in the village of Saint Paul de Vence. The tour provides the transportation and parking for your party, and there wasn't a dull moment throughout our drive as our attention was taken up by the spectacular views of the coast and the right amount of conversation with Guy. One of the ways Guy made our experience so special was by sharing his expansive knowledge of southern France with us through his telling of stories, history and fun facts. When we got to some of the bigger locations, Guy would lead us initially, orienting us to the place like a real in person tour guide (showing us things, pointing things out etc), but then he would also allow us the pleasure of having some free time to the explore the location on our own afterwards, which we really appreciated. Throughout the day it was the perfect balance of the organized tour vibe and free exploring vibe. Within the first 20 minutes of our tour, at our first photo stop overlooking Nice, I knew we had made a good decision. Each stop and hour of the tour after that continued to prove over and over again that this was a decision and investment worth making and really gave us what we were hoping to accomplish in our trip to Nice. I could not recommend Riviera Together Tours more, and if we are back to Nice in the future, we will contact them again and see some off the beaten path sites.

  My family would highly recommend Guy and Riviera Together Tours. We had a wonderful tour of 3 villages near Nice from our cruise ship docked in Villefranche. Guy was great... read more with my kids (10 and 17) as well as the adults on our tour... he...More
