About this tour
A four-to-five-hour private minivan tour threading the Côte d'Azur's most picturesque corners.

Your driver doubles as guide, navigating the Corniche's hairpin bends while sharing local knowledge gleaned from years working Riviera hotels. Pickup from Nice or Villefranche; air-conditioned comfort and phone chargers included.

What to expect
Your driver picks you up from your Nice or Villefranche accommodation and navigates the serpentine Corniche, trading tourist traffic for seaside vistas. In Èze, expect steep cobbled lanes and packed viewpoints—arrive early to dodge coach groups. The Exotic Garden rewards a gentle climb; Fragonard's workshop demonstrates scent-making but moves quickly. Down to Monaco: the Palace exterior is impressive, the Oceanographic Museum warrants an hour if marine life interests you, and Monte Carlo's casino square buzzes with moneyed calm. Count on four to five hours door-to-door, with flexibility for stops and photos.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes for Èze's uneven streets. Museum and palace entries not included; budget accordingly. Strollers and infant seats available. Pick up in Monaco incurs extra cost; Nice and Villefranche are standard. Ask your driver for restaurant and shop recommendations—they know what locals actually use.
