Hello dear visitor and welcome to Nice and the French Riviera! My name is Yvonne and I am a Munich-born German. I always loved French culture and traditions and I studied them before deciding to move abroad 28 years ago. First to Turkey on the Aegean Coast for a short stay, and then to France on the French Riviera, where I worked at Nice International Airport in the ground handling department and where I had to deal with many guests and cultures. I really liked this human dimension and I always wanted to help travellers enjoy their stay in the region by giving them local tips and advice. Knowing that, I decided to change my professional direction and went back to study Art (especially 19th-century art) and Architecture at the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis to become a licensed tour guide, leading in German, French and English. Moving to the French Riviera, I immediately fell in love with this region, with its golden light, the bold colours of its vegetation and picturesque villages filled with history and art; my favourite are Cannes, Antibes, Aix-en-Provence, Monaco and Saint-Paul de Vence, where I have been guiding for the last few years, always trying to create tailor-made itineraries off the beaten path with unique details and interesting anecdotes. My job is my true passion and I love to share it with my guests and to rediscover all these magnificent sites through their eyes again every single day. I am specialized in single-day or multiple-day private tours stretching from the French Riviera both to Provence and the Italian Riviera with all their gems but other options of tour durations can be organized. My every-day-leitmotiv: Share, Laugh and Enjoy. I would love to meet you and show you around lovely Nice and French Riviera! -Certified National Tour Guide by the University of Nice. -Carte de Guide Conférencier N° 14/06/021 P delivered by the French Ministry of Tourism and Culture. -Vehicle insurance: Assurance RC personnes transportées MFA 58 Rue Arson 06300 Nice -Transport Licence (professional driver's licence): EVTC006140236 Being a National Licenced Tour Guide & Lecturer, I have no restrictions.

    Good tour by a friendly guide. Basic tourist sites ( the same as available on any bus/taxi tour); nothing special nor unique.

    I thank for having taken the time to write a review. But I am very surprised by the rating. We did exatly what you wanted to do. As you booked this tour directly without discussing the itinerary with me, we visited the places you decided to see by clicking on this half day tour. I am very sorry that you did not like the villages such as Eze and Villefranche sur Mer and...

    In a word: “Excellent.” I reached out to Yvonne to see if she would do a custom tour of Monaco and Èze for my wife and me. She readily agreed. But this was only the beginning of my trying her unlimited patience, as our travel plans kept changing. She graciously adapted to a new date and itinerary for us. As for the tour, it was splendid. She picked us up in Antibes, which...

    Evelyn did a fantastic tour for us, even though it was interrupted by a 5 hour trip to the emergency room in old town Monte Carlo. We would highly recommend Evelyn for any tour in Monte Carlo, Monaco or Niece.

    Yvonne was a wonderful guide! She readily modified her itinerary to the interests of our group. She was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and had a great sense of humor. We had a wonderful day.
