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 Nice tour

A tour about the authentic Riviera, the one I love, with a program for demanding travelers. You will discover the great classics of the French Riviera in a way that others don't. Because the "must see" don't have to be standardized, and because the way you see them can change everything to your experience, I build and customize my tour for you. Together we will enjoy some of the most famous panoramas in Europe, you will understand places full of history and traditions, you will taste the flavors of the south, you will stroll among colors and impressions that you never experienced before. This day will also be an opportunity to experience France, that's part of my "personal touch". If you are curious, if you want more than just a sightseeing, if you want to make that day special, if you want to mix some guided moments and some free time, then I hope you will choose to discover this magic Riviera with me. The tour includes extensive guided walking visits and does not not include the visit of Eze & Monaco.
