Travel from Nice in a modern minivan with a professional guide to Eze, Monaco, and Monte-Carlo. Stop for Villefranche and Cap Ferrat views, visit Fragonard, see the Prince’s Palace and Casino Square, and drive the Monaco Grand Prix circuit.

“My tour guide Ben was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, funny, and accomodating. Hotel pickup went smoothly, the guide's driving was safe and comfortable. Our group was all solo travelers, so this is definitely solo traveler friendly. Visit to Eze, Monaco, Monte Carlo, with the option to extend to the full day tour that included Saint-Paul-de-Vance, Antibes, and Cannes. Only bummer was that by the time we got to Cannes it was dark out, since it was late November. Doing this kind of tour in longer daylight hours would be perfect. Good mix of driving, walking, sightseeing, and hearing local stories/history.”
