Should it be your second or third time here, we have a new tour called "UNUSUAL RIVIERA " made of unusual visits of Monaco , Monte-Carlo, St Jean Cap Ferrat, Villefranche, Cagnes sur Mer, Nice etc, all places that very few people know & where you will be the only tourists! You will be seduced by a very different aspect of the Cote d'Azur ...
If you prefer to discover the local wines of Provence, ranked third best in France after Bourgogne & Bordeaux, we can take you to one or two lovely & family owned vineyards for wine tasting and an explanation of wine making (a small fee per person should be planned) Ask for details if it sounds good to you!
Should you be interested in art or museums, we also are capable of offering you a tour of museums & are very knowledgeable about our region with a perfect command of English which is our "PLUS" compared to other minibus services that only provide a driver (French humor is included without any supplement ...!) Examples of museums : Matisse & Chagall in Nice, The Rothschild Foundation, the Maeght Foundation, the Picasso museum in Antibes , etc.
A very different aspect of the French Riviera can be the amazing SOUTHERN ALPS in a day tour taking you to canyons, rapids, waterfalls, mountain villages filled with flourished chalets, watching cows & even wild wolves in their natural lush environment: ask for details if interested ... a breathtaking but easy horse back riding trip of approximately 2 hours is possible if you know how to ride horses ...
