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.

Yvonne put together and conducted this tour for us. We had to request a last minute delayed start time and she was very flexible with us and completed the entire tour even though it was a delayed end time for her. The tour itself is incredible as she took us through Antibes, Cannes, Eze and Monaco all within 8 hours and yet plenty of time to explore the towns. Her knowledge of the area lends to an enjoyable tour with a desire for more. Overall an awesome tour specialist. Go for it.

We had a wonderful tour with Yvonne! She tailored the tour to our likes and needs, and she had great recommendations. Her van was comfortable even for our group of 8 adults. I would highly recommend Yvonne as a tour guide when visiting the French Riviera!

Yvonne was exceptional in guiding us in the area. She made sure we got to see the specific areas we were interested in while watching the time. We were given options and time to explore on our own and she was very knowledgeable about the area and could give personal insight into the history. It was a very pleasant tour.

You made our trip to Nice & the French Riviera, your adopted area, very special. This was my partner, Cynthia's 1st visit to France so everything we experienced was new to both of us, really terrific. Your knowledge of the area, its history, culture, & cuisine is unique. As ours was a private tour your advice, personality, & ability to adapt to our mutual interest is much appreciated. Clearly customer focused, but with the added warmth of making us feel as family.
