Bonjour et bienvenue à tous, Being a native from Villefranche-sur-Mer, located between Nice and Monaco and facing the world-famous Cap Ferrat, I grew up in the heart of the French Riviera. I loved going to see the festivities of the Nice Carnaval in February like the Menton lemon festival, the Monaco palace with its guards and its Cousteau Oceanic Museum, the luxury cars of Monte-Carlo were something special for me because my father was a professional sports car mechanic who participated in the Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix for more than 10 years. We were also lucky in May to enjoy the Cannes Film Festival and meet film actors and actresses or French televisions celebrities walking on the Boulevard de La Croisette. Every time I mention my first job outside of Nice, outside of France, I always have the same answer full of surprises " how did you end up in Idaho...?" Well, back in Feb. 2002, during the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, I had the great opportunity to work for two years at the famous Sun Valley Ski Resort as a restaurant and banquet manager. I enjoyed every opportunity to visit most of the West Side and have fond memories of it because it was so different from my hometown French Riviera and also another exclusive, "rich and famous" place to experience. Back in Nice, back in school to be certified as a licensed lecturer-guide, i now take every opportunity to show my clients my area as a local and make sure they feel at home, throughout their stay.

My favorite thing is to start the day with panoramas up on the hill overlooking the Bay of Nice and Villefranche/Cap Ferrat, off the beaten track, that will help you to understand the area and its modern and past history. In Eze I will show you how important it was to be protected from the sea attacks during centuries and we will discover how Eze is organize today for modern deluxe tourism, Fragonard perfume factory will teach us the secrets of liquid perfume birth. Around Monaco old town and Monte Carlo Casino I will help you discover this unique country going through legendary characters, amazing monuments, spectacular gardens hanging above the sea, and the ambiance of one of the richest place in the world. You must have your passport with you for this day trip. *Monaco & Monte-Carlo are not accessible during the Formula 1 Grand Prix // June 4 until June 7 2026*

Gregory was terrific! Great communication before the tour and met us as planned. Very comfortable van, which helped keep us cool! Loved learning about Monaco and driving the F1 track! Eze was an unexpected highlight. Thank you for helping us see so much in a short period of time.

Gregory spent the whole day with us after picking us up at our ship. His English is very good and his knowledge of the area’s history was even better. We fit in a tour of Monaco, including the palace, casino and Prince’s car collection. We saw the changing of the guard at the palace. We then headed to Éze and the perfume factory. Thank you Gregory for an informative day.

This day trip to the Verdon Canyon with Gregory R was the most picturesque drive I have been on in a long time. If you have a tendency to car sickness this may not be for you as the road is very curvy and it is a long drive, but the views are unbelievable.
