Sightee on the French Riviera with a tour to Monte Carlo, Eze, Nice, Cannes, Antibes. Your French Riviera tour begins with a Nice hotel pickup by your driver guide.

  • Included: Monte Carlo, Eze, Fragonard perfume factory tour, Nice, Cannes, Antibes, Juan-les-Pins
  • Vehicle: Minibus with pickup from your hotel in Nice (Contact us for a pickup in Cannes since the price is slightly higher.)

Your Riviera tour will take the Corniche road to Monaco.

In Monaco, you will stop on top of the Rock for a visit of the Old Town and the Prince Palace (open June thru October). The Rock of Monaco is 459 feet high and situated in the Principality of Monaco.

Today, the Rock is located in Monaco-Ville, the oldest of Monaco's four quarters.

Not far from there is the Prince's Palace. Albert II lives in the palace and he is the current monarch.  You will see Monaco Cathedral where Princess Grace and Rainier got married and where they are buried. Your tour drives by the Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit to Monte-Carlo, a world of elegance and luxury.

Next stop is Eze. Eze is a medieval village perched like an eagles nest on a narrow rocky peak overlooking the Mediterranean sea. Eze is an ancient fortified village with the ruins of its 12th-century fortified castle still around. The setting makes Eze a very picturesque destination and the climb to the top is worth every step since the coastal views are amazing!

While in Eze, you will enjoy a guided tour of a traditional perfumery, the true essence of Provence.

Continuing the Riviera tour, you will visit Nice's flower market in Old Nice and see the cafés and winding streets.

Your Riviera tour continues to Cannes. In Cannes, you'll want to walk the famous Croisette Boulevard. The Boulevard Croisette is near the Cannes Film Festival Palace, designer shops, and beautiful sandy beaches.

Cannes was once a quiet fishing village, but is now a very glamorous and well-known seaside town. The Cannes film festival in May is when Cannes is watched around the world because the rich and richer of the entertainment world full of actors and actresses pour into the area and the celebrities and directors await word regarding the film awards.

The Riviera tour follows the coast along the bays of Juan-Les-Pins and Antibes.

In Antibes, a Provencal walled city, you can walk in the busy old town and by the billionaire’s quay where helicopters and yachts abound. Antibes is one of the poshest resort towns on the French Riviera and combines elegance with a great history. In times past, it was the only town between Marseilles and Italy to be protected with ramparts.

After a visit to Antibes, your driver will return you to your Riviera hotel.
