About this tour

Explore the French Riviera at your own pace in a private air-conditioned minivan with a dedicated driver-guide. Based from cruise ports, you'll spend up to 7 hours discovering destinations like Monaco, Cannes, Nice, Eze, or Saint-Paul de Vence—plotting your own route and priorities with your guide. You're guaranteed timely return to your ship, making this ideal for maximising port time without the constraints of group itineraries.

Highlights

  • Customise your entire itinerary with your private guide
  • Visit Monaco, Cannes, Nice, Eze, or coastal villages
  • Climate-controlled minivan with professional driver
  • Flexible timing to match your cruise ship departure
  • Infant seats and prams accommodated
  • No rushing through pre-set group stops

What to expect

You'll meet your driver-guide at the port and decide together where to spend your seven hours. Whether you want leisurely exploration of hillside villages, waterfront strolls through Riviera towns, photo stops at scenic overlooks, or shopping in Cannes and Monaco, the itinerary bends to you. Your guide navigates traffic and logistics whilst you focus on sightseeing. Expect a relaxed pace with flexibility to linger somewhere unexpectedly charming or skip destinations that don't appeal. The vehicle is modern and comfortable, though the crowded Riviera roads mean travel time between spots can be substantial.

Good to know

Arrange your route before departing the port to maximise time. Bring euros for attractions, cafés, and parking fees—these aren't included. The driver guarantees your return by ship departure; factor this into planning. Infant seats and strollers are available.
