Guide #75729
With over 35 years of experience in the luxury tourism industry, I bring a deep understanding of high-end travel and guest expectations. I hold a degree in Tourism with a specialization in Tour Operations, and I am a national licensed tour guide accredited by the French Ministry of Tourism. For the past 12 years, I’ve been leading tailor-made tours throughout the French Riviera and Provence. As an official guide-driver, I also hold all the required insurances and certifications to ensure safe, legal, and premium travel experiences. I combine in-depth local knowledge with a true sense of hospitality. I also offer concierge-style services such as restaurant reservations, hotel bookings, and personalized recommendations for a wide variety of activities. I have a naturally caring and attentive approach, always striving to anticipate my guests’ needs. Perfectionist by nature, I understand how rare and valuable leisure time is - which is why I’m committed to making every moment exceptional. I’m passionate about devoting myself to making others happy, and my greatest satisfaction comes from offering memorable experiences, discovering stunning landscapes, and the richness of French and Provençal culture. I’ve worked for many years with a discerning clientele, including corporate groups and medical professionals, as well as in the luxury events industry. I’ve also had the privilege of working alongside renowned chefs such as Paul Bocuse, a legendary figure in French gastronomy. As a former professional dancer and Pilates instructor, I have a deep appreciation for discipline and effort. I truly enjoy being around passionate people, whatever their passion may be. I fell in love with the French Riviera 20 years ago and chose to settle here, drawn by its breathtaking landscapes and the southern light so cherished by famous painters. For me, it remains a daily source of wonder and inspiration. Becoming a guide was a natural path: a desire to share the beauty of Provence and the Riviera, and to connect with people from around the world. During my private tours in a quiet and comfortable luxury electric van, everything revolves around you. I’ll adjust to your rhythm, focus on what truly interests you, and create a fully customized itinerary for you and your group. My goal? To create unforgettable memories—a day that feels exceptional, just as you deserve. I’ll treat you and your loved ones with care and attention, embracing every personal request as a welcome challenge. One of my greatest strengths is adaptability. Whether you're traveling with teenagers, young children, pets, or have mobility challenges, I’ll do everything I can to make your time in the French Riviera or Provence truly unforgettable. From must-see landmarks to hidden gems only locals know, the experience will be tailored to your pace and preferences, always with your comfort in mind. I’d also be delighted to help you explore more of Southern France’s rich heritage - from Monaco, Nice, Èze, Villefranche-sur-Mer, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, Antibes, and Saint-Tropez to the wine estates of the Var, the hilltop villages of the Maritime Alps or Luberon, Verdon Gorges, lavander fields or even the wild beauty of the Camargue...Let me take you there!

Dear Sandy, It was truly a pleasure to share time with you and Greg and enjoy your delightful company. I would be delighted to guide you again in the future and to share more inspiring conversations about Pilates… it would truly be a joy! With my warmest regards Julie Romy
Romy was enchanting and so kind to guide us on her planned day off when a colleague of hers suffered a family loss. Her knowledge of the French Riviera was endless and her ability to “sneak” us into special places to truly get an insider’s view was a treat! Romy took great photos throughout the day and sent them to us after the tour was finished along with recommendations...

Dear Sandra, dear Mark, It was truly a pleasure meeting you and guiding you and your friends. Thank you very much for your thoughtful congratulations. I hope you had a lovely stay in Paris, brief as it was. It would be a real delight to guide you again on a future visit. Until then, take good care. With my warmest regards, Julie Romy
We recently had the opportunity to take a tour with Julie and it was a fantastic experience. We have used Tours by Locals previously but this tour was the best by far. Julie has a fantastic knowledge of French culture and history which she was more than willing to share with us. She has a very comfortable large Mercedes van which was extremely comfortable. Julie kept us...
