“Matt was fantastic! We learned a lot about the area and he safely got us from place to place and was very clear about when/where to return (5 stars to the fellow passengers for all being on time for all the different spots). The best part about all of it was not having to worry about parking and any logistics. We were free to explore and Matt took care of the rest. Lovely!!!”

Even though we were all from different countries, communication felt easy and natural from the very beginning. The guide showed us the most beautiful and memorable places and even recommended a local bakery where we stopped to eat — the food was absolutely delicious. Everything around us was stunning, and the atmosphere of the day was truly special. This experience left us with amazing memories, and it’s a day we will definitely remember for a long time.”

“The trip is listed as hotel pick up at 2pm but got a text to say to meet at the train station. Time was moved forward a few minutes before we were due to meet and this was how the whole trip went. Constantly felt like we were being rushed- said a time and then make it earlier. We were meant to go to Eze then Monaco, but trip was done in reverse order by the time we got to Eze the Japanese Gardens were closed.”

“We really enjoyed this tour with our guide Cyril! Not only were all the sites we visited stunning Cyril was very knowledgeable about the history and culture that he made the trip very much enjoyable. The start of the trip in Annot was paced nicely (slower) and we had a very delicious lunch with so much food! We were provided a variety of selections to meet any palate. The second half of the tour in Entrevaux was just as beautiful as I thoroughly enjoyed the hike up to the citadel. You do in fact need a decent level of mobility and fitness to make the trip up, but this part…”
