Overview

Our transportation is designed exclusively for cruise passengers. We track your ship’s schedule in real time and fully adapt the tour to ensure you’re back at the port well before departure — no delays, no stress, no missed ships.

You’ll ride in a premium van, which comfortably seats up to 8 passengers. The vehicle offers exceptional comfort, panoramic windows, leather seating, and air conditioning — a true VIP experience on wheels.

I deliver an optimum level of service from start to finish, combining professionalism, punctuality, and flexibility. Whether it’s a shared tour or a private one, every detail is tailored to your needs.

As the Top 1 rated guides on the French Riviera, I go beyond simple transportation — I offer an immersive, authentic, and first-class experience that turns your short time ashore into a truly memorable journey.

What To Expect

Departure: Villefranche Cruise Port

Your adventure begins as you’re welcomed at the port of Villefranche-sur-Mer in a luxury Mercedes vehicle. Sit back, relax, and enjoy panoramic views as we begin along the Lower Corniche.

⸻

Stop 1: Scenic Photo Stop on the Moyenne Corniche

As we ascend to the Moyenne Corniche, we’ll pause for a 15-minute photo stop. From here, admire one of the most iconic views on the French Riviera — the Bay of Villefranche and the lush peninsula of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, also known as the “Peninsula of Billionaires.” A perfect place to snap unforgettable shots.

⸻

Stop 2: Medieval Village of Eze (~45 min to 1h30)

Next, we visit the breathtaking hilltop village of Eze, perched high above the sea. Wander through its cobblestone streets, art galleries, and boutiques as your guide walks you through its rich history and medieval charm. The views are simply spectacular.

⸻

Stop 3: Fragonard Perfume Factory (~30 min)

While in Eze, enjoy a guided tour of the Fragonard Perfume Factory, where you’ll discover the secrets of French perfume-making — an art deeply rooted in this region. A delightful olfactory experience!

⸻

Scenic Drive: Grande Corniche to Monaco

Leaving Eze, we climb to the majestic Grande Corniche, offering sweeping views across the Riviera and into the Alps. This historic route is one of the highest coastal roads in Europe — and cinematic in every sense.

⸻

Stop 4: The Rock of Monaco (Monaco Old Town) (~45 min to 1h)

Our first stop in the Principality is Le Rocher — Monaco’s old town. Visit the Prince’s Palace, St. Nicholas Cathedral, and the charming old streets. From here, enjoy a striking view over the Port of Monaco.

⸻

Scenic Drive: F1 Grand Prix Circuit

Then, buckle up for a drive along the legendary Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit, where champions race through tight city corners and tunnels — a thrill for motorsport fans.

⸻

Stop 5: Monte Carlo & Casino Square (~30 min)

We conclude our Monaco experience at Monte Carlo’s glamorous Casino Square. Stroll past luxury boutiques, see the iconic Casino de Monte-Carlo, and enjoy the buzzing atmosphere of the Riviera’s most prestigious neighborhood.

⸻

Return via the Lower Corniche

Your tour ends with a relaxing drive along the Basse Corniche, hugging the coastline back to Villefranche. One last opportunity to soak in the Mediterranean beauty before your return.

⸻
