Full-Day Private Cannes Shore Excursion: Eze & Monaco

Posted By : alyson_h
Our tour with Pierre was the highlight of our vacation so far. He was in contact with us the day before, waiting for us right off the tender, and had water ready for us in the new and well equipped van. He gave us several options on how to proceed with the tour and entertained us all the way to Monaco from Cannes with history, highlights and just good humor. He was engaging, enthusiastic, and professional. He made sure we saw all the sights, found an amazing Venezuelan restaurant tucked away and accommodated everyone’s requests throughout the day. We all (party of 6) felt as though he was a friend before the day was over and were sad to see it end. If you are lucky enough to tour with Pierre, you will have an amazing excursion!

Pierre was a fabulous guide. He was knowledgeable, funny and entertaining showing us the highlights of Monaco and Nice. (We didn’t make it to Cannes as it seems you have to arrive in Cannes and our ship arrived at a different port.)

I highly recommend Pierre and this excursion.

Laura did a wonderful job showing us Monte Carlo, Monaco, Nice and Cannes. Seeing the Formula 1 race track was a highlight as well as the casino in Monte Carlo. She was flexible and worked with us to make sure we made it back to our ship on time.

Franck was great. Showed us so many places that you would not be to get by bus. He loves what he does and and is very passionate about his culture and the places he bring you to visit. He is very patient and allows the time for you to experience the beauty of cannes. Thx Franck for a memory that will last a life time for my family.

Our tour guide, Franck, was excellent. He was able to show us so much of the area, and we truly appreciate it, i.e. Monte Carlo, Canne, Eze, and Mougins. What a beautiful memory for all of us.

Katherine met us at the ship and started our exploration of the Cannes port in a very comfortable van. She knew so much of the history and added her own experiences throughout the tour. She was very patient with my father, who is 84, and struggled a bit with the heat we experienced. Her knowledge and experience of how to get around all the crowds was awesome - we loved our time with her and recommend her highly! Thank you Katherine for a wonderful time in your city!

Guy was the best tour guide ever! I highly recommend him and this tour. Admittedly, I was VERY nervous prior to the tour. I had tried for another tour guide from another tour company that had literally thousands of 5 star reviews, and yet he booked up before I could shore up my plans. This tour company didn't have many reviews yet, so I was nervous what I was getting myself into. But now I'm thrilled that the other tour company was booked because we found Guy! He's so friendly, a great conversationalist, full of unlimited interesting facts and history about the area, a safe driver, and quite thoughtful (water available for us in the car, recommendations on various shops and food, and even surprising us with a little pastry treat between stops). He maximized our time wisely given the traffic, enabling us to get a good sense of Cannes, Nice (including the flower market), Eze, Monaco and Monte Carlo in the 8 hours that the cruise ship gave us. I unqualifiedly recommend Guy.

Our first port excursion was in Cannes. our cruise company's excursions were sold out, and we chose to hire a private tour. Catherine made an excellent guide. The car in which she picked us up was incredibly comfortable (and meticulously clean!) for the full day trip. The French Riviera was new to all of us, so we thoroughly enjoyed her explanations of Cannes and Nice. The Nice market area was fun, and Catherine recommended some fun local treats like socca to try. We also got some pastries at a local store while walking through the Old Town.

The entire family (me, husband, and two college-aged daughters) LOVED Eze for the views and beautiful medieval structure. We also purchased lunch at a boulangerie.

Because it was the day of the Grand Prix, we were NOT able to go to Monaco. This was communicated to us beforehand very professionally. Catherine still took the time to drive to an overlook of Monaco. The group recommended a trip to St. Paul de Vence instead of the Monaco portion of the itinerary. We enjoyed St. Paul, but it is definitely for those who like explore local artists and shopping. It features a medieval town similar to Eze. We did enjoy some good treats from a vendor there.

If we were to do it over, we would have chosen Eze over St. Paul de Vence and taken the time to sit down at a cafe in Eze to eat. This is no criticism of Catherine and the company. They accurately described our choices, and we selected the itinerary that included both Eze and St. Paul de Vence. We also chose to spend some time at the perfumery which our daughters greatly enjoyed to learn more about the process and do some shopping.

We found Catherine to be incredibly likeable and professional. he is incredibly knowledgeable. We would highly recommend her. What an incredibly delightful day along the Cote d'Azur!
