My name is Cecilia, I've been working as a tour guide since 2009 ! Time flies . . . Especially when you do what you love. And I am personally convinced that it is simply not possible to be a tour guide without truly loving what you do. You give so much of yourself in each tour, in every single new encounter. . . I honestly feel like I am in the right place doing this ! It is all about sharing the Beauty which surrounds you and creating joyful memories for people to go home with. I couldn't imagine a career that could fit me better. I like to think that enthusiasm is my ⛽ fuel. Looking forward to meeting you and enjoying Beauty together ☺️ I graduated from the Paul Augier Hospitality School in Nice. I have a valid EU Driver's License I am a licensed tour guide since 2008. And the entire rest of what I know, I learned and was taught by my amazing mother who has been a tour guide herself for over 40 years now. I owe her everything I know and will never be able to thank her enough. None.

Overview of your Nice tour

This tour would allow you to drive along the "corniches", our scenic coastline roads to enjoy beautiful panoramas all the way to the Italian border. . . You would discover beautiful Menton, the last French town, then Dolceaqua, an amazingly cute little village up inland the Italian Riviera . . . On our way back to Nice, you would explore the unique Villa Eprhussi of Rothschild, a majestic estate surrounded with its 7 differently themed gardens. . . Incredible place filled with lots of very funny anecdotes, a great way to understand how the French Riviera became the French Riviera. This tour, which by the way combines probably my 3 favorite places all along the Riviera, would make you discover a wide variety of sceneries and atmospheres in one day between France & Italy. Again, please keep in mind that I remain entirely flexible at all times. I know how to adapt to your needs for you to have the greatest possible day.

Your Nice tour itinerary

-Leaving Nice in the morning, we would enjoy a ride along the coastal roads and their beautiful panoramas all the way to Menton, the last French town by the Italian border. -Visit Menton and its inimitable Italian charm, we'd explore the old town and its wonders. . . (views, basilica, olive tasting if you'd like -free of charge-, legendary covered market, little shops, coffee break along the water. . . anything is possible really ;D) -Then, we'd cross the border (Passports are required) to drive through Ventimiglia, first Italian town and make our way up inland to Dolceaqua. We'd stroll through the village before having lunch there. Overlooking its famous bridge, maybe trying out the local Rossesse, their local red wine made on the spot with local vines. (No, not me !) -On our way back to Nice, we could stop in St Jean Cap Ferrat to discover the Villa Eprhussi of Rothschild. An incredible 19th C estate and its incredible gardens. Fell in love with it at my first visit . . . You'll tell me !
