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 was outstanding in every way
Yvonne was a pleasure to spend the day with, full of information and enthusiasm. She was patient with physical issues and adapted kindly. Also, her driving was amazing! We would highly recommend her and would use her again.
This tour to Eze and St Paul de Vence was incredible! As soon as Yvonne picked us up we were learning. She is extremely knowledgeable and you can tell she enjoys what she is doing. Our family learned a lot and saw a beautiful part of France!
Yvonne was perfect for our four grandchildren and my husband and me. She was most flexible and even walked on the beach in Nice with our grandchildren! We had a wonderful day in Nice and got to experience the city as a local playing on the playground.
