About this tour
A private half-day tour of the French Riviera's two standout destinations: the clifftop medieval village of Eze and the principality of Monaco. Your certified local guide navigates you through Monaco's iconic sights—the Royal Palace, Guard ceremony, and Grand Prix circuit—before driving up to Eze's winding stone streets and Mediterranean overlooks. Five hours, departing from Nice or Villefranche-sur-Mer in a private Mercedes with bottled water included. Casino entry (€20) paid separately on arrival.

What to expect
You'll start in Monaco, walking through the principality's grand squares and past the Royal Palace to watch the Guard change. Your guide points out the legendary F1 corners as you drive the circuit itself. Then you climb to Eze, a fortified medieval settlement perched 400 metres above the coast. Expect narrow lanes, steep steps, and panoramic vistas across the Côte d'Azur. The village is compact but steep; wear comfortable shoes. You'll have time to explore cafés and viewpoints before returning. The whole pace is leisurely—no rushing between checkpoints.
Good to know
Moderate fitness required due to Eze's hills and uneven steps. Not suitable for spinal or cardiovascular conditions. Casino entry costs €20, paid on-site. Meals not included. Public transport alternatives available nearby. Infant seats provided on request.
