Ladies and Gentlemen, Ernest Hemingway once wrote «There are only two places in the world where it is possible to be happy: at home and in Paris». Well as much as I hate to disagree with a nobel prize, I must say that the French Riviera will make you feel at home, without the Parisian rain ! My name is Michel and I will be happy to guide during your stay on the French Riviera and maybe outside as well. I'm Certified Tour Guide and Lecturer (I can guide in historic sites and museums) with 25 years of experience in Provence and on the French Riviera. After studing history and political science at the Sorbonne in Paris, I completed my guiding license in Nice. I spent years walking every path, visiting every lost chapel, touching every stone, tasting everything, it's my pathology. I live in a region where tourism is ofen standardized, with very few genuine tours, reason why I'm happy to be able to offer you a list of tours with several unique experiences, including for first time visitors. Contact me with your wishes, your place of care and check my programs to see if you find some inspiration, I will be happy to customize a tour for you. Please note I don't do tours of Monaco and Eze, places overwhelm with mass tourism. If you're interested in going there I would suggest you to contact my colleagues who all provide excellent services there. If you have any question please contact me, I'll be happy to provide all the information and the suggestions you need. A bientôt en France! Michel National Licensed Tour Guide and Lecturer (Nice Sophia Antipolis university Nice) VTC licence and TPRP licenses : Public transportation Being Certified Tour Guide I have no restriction of any sort, I can guide you inside historic sites-monuments as well as in museums.

Overview of your Cannes tour

When you think of France, you probably picture a land covered with picturesque villages nestled around their centennial church. Here you will discover that for centuries these villages cling to the side of the mountain, upstream of the rivers and facing the sea, in a surprising painting made of charm and history. Those are the Balconies of the Riviera. If they are easy to see, their charm remains hidden from most visitors, which is why with me you will have the opportunity to discover all their secrets through guided tours, to enjoy the most beautiful and most secret roads. Each of them as something specific that makes them unique and different from the others, so you will enjoy a new atmosphere in each one of them. I developped this tour over the last 20 years and i'd like to make you feel like you belong to the place. You'll have great opportunities for a real local lunch, photo ops, local shopping. . . Guided walking tour of each site.

MOUGINS PIcasso fell in love with the Riviera on the day he visited this village. You will too. . . SAINT-PAUL The Renaissance stronghold attracts millions of visitors. Most miss the point. I will show you the authenticity of the place, the secret streets that turn out to be the most beautiful ones, the ignored Chagall road… TOURRETTES-SUR-LOUP My all time favorite! A definition of Provence, with some amazing secrets to discover, hidden in the church and its surrounding. Here I like to show you what is life in the south of France. SAUT DU LOUP Access to the splendid waterfall of the Loup canyon. GOURDON At the end of the impressive Loup canyon, perched 760 meters above the sea level, the medieval eagle nest offers a panorama over forty kilometers of seaside. Unforgeatable.
