2.
In the charming village of Eze, we will explore the fascinating Fragonard Perfume Factory. An expert guide will lead us on a captivating journey to discover the secrets of scent creation. As we immerse ourselves in this aromatic adventure, we will learn about the unique role of a 'nose' - the term affectionately used for perfume creators. With a collection of fragrances to sample, we will engage in a playful challenge, attempting to match each scent with its corresponding plant or spice. It s a delightful sensory experience, equally educational and entertaining! Unveiling the history behind perfume production in this region adds an extra layer of intrigue to our visit. It's a chance to appreciate Eze not only for its history but also as a cradle of olfactory artistry. This experience is sure to leave a lasting impression, offering a glimpse into the timeless elegance that infuses every bottle.
3. Vieux La Turbie
As we drive through the village of La Turbie, keep your eyes peeled for a glimpse of the ancient world – the majestic statue of Emperor Augustus, also known as the Trophy of the Alps. Erected by the Romans in 6 B.C., this grand monument has stood the test of time, marking the skies from the soaring heights of the Great Corniche. While we won't be stopping here, you will still feel the grandeur and the history it represents as it comes into view. I will share with you the fascinating story behind its creation, unraveling the purpose of this impressive tribute to Imperial Rome. As we continue our journey, the statue serves as a silent guardian of history, watching over the Riviera with a story that echoes through the ages.
4. Palais Princier de Monaco
Gaze upon the Prince's Palace of Monaco, perched on a rock jutting into the sea. This regal home, with its storied past stands as the jewel of the Principality of Monaco. Although we won't be stepping inside its luxurious halls, which are open to visitors from April to October for those who wish to explore its opulent interiors, there's still much to admire from the outside. Every day at 11:55 am, a tradition unfolds before your eyes: the Changing of the Guards. While you absorb the magnificence of the palace and the ceremonial event, I will share tales of its history and the royalty who have called it home. The palace not only encapsulates the essence of Monaco's luxury but also stands as a living piece of history that continues to enchant and captivate those who come to see its wonders.
5. Cathedrale Notre-Dame-Immaculee
This architectural marvel isn't just a feast for the eyes; it holds stories of a timeless romance that captured the world's attention. It is here that the beloved Princess Grace Kelly rests, her final chapter etched in the heart of Monaco. As we approach this sacred site, the air seems to hold a whisper of the past, where a Hollywood star became a princess in a real-life fairy tale. You won't just see the place where she is buried; you will feel the legacy of her grace and the love she inspired that continues to linger over the principality. Standing before the cathedral will give you a moment to reflect on the life of a woman who was an icon of her era, a cherished princess, and to this day, a symbol of timeless elegance.
6. Casino of Monte-Carlo
Imagine cruising along the same streets that transform into the legendary Monaco Grand Prix circuit. We can feel the pulse of excitement that fills the air during the world's most prestigious racing event. We will follow the track at a leisurely pace, passing the iconic start-finish line, gliding through the renowned tunnel, and rounding the famous Fairmont hairpin turn. Afterward, prepare to be dazzled as we enter the opulent heart of Monte Carlo. The grandeur of the Casino Square unveils itself, where the world’s most famous casino, the Casino Monte-Carlo, stands as a monument to elegance and excitement. Luxury boutiques, world-class restaurants, and extravagant hotels. This is where luxury lives, breathes, and plays. Get ready to be swept up in the glamour that makes Monaco a playground for the rich and famous.

My group and I had an outstanding tour with Mago. From start to finish, our day was flawless, and unanimously, it became the highlight of our trip to the south of France. Mago's extensive knowledge of the area, combined with his kindness, humor, and upbeat personality, made the experience truly memorable. Undoubtedly, this is the finest tour I have experienced in Europe, and I eagerly anticipate another tour with Mago in the future!

My daughter and I came to Nice for the weekend. We had the most unbelievable tour with Maga! We fell in love with the French Riviera at the old Towne of Eze. Maga has so much great history knowledge that he shared with us in an amazing and fun way. And we loved Monaco and Monte Carlo as well. Seeing Prince Albert’s palace and learning about the history of the second smallest country in the world was so interesting. We had time for shopping and driving on the Grand Prix actual track was unreal! The perfume factory tour and making our own scent was fabulous as well. Maga is so personable and his van was a great ride. Don’t look at any other tour! You don’t want to miss this! Best part of our trip! Merci Maga!!❤️

Our guide, Mago, met us at the port. He sent a message when he was almost to the port. He was on time and very easy to find. He was a wealth of knowledge. He really personalized our tour and made sure we understood the history and significance of the entire area. The views of the cities were amazing. The Chateau de la Chevre d'or Rue Principale was enjoyable. Monaco was impressive. We highly recommend him. So at 5 stars per person, Mago earns 30 stars.

The sites on the French Riviera are stunningly beautiful and the mix of ancient and modern architecture is simply wonder-FULL! But a knowledgeable guide makes the travel so much more EXTRA! Deeper insights, fun facts, and seriously funny anecdotes made our trip so much more memorable!
And if you're a beginner in the French language, our guide Mago, generously shared great tips to help make sense of the insanely complicated and unattainably beautiful language that is French. Ask for Mago; then tell me if I'm wrong. 😄👍
