This review is long overdue. But when a friend asked me what they should do while in France I had to recommend this day trip with Yvonne. Yvonne tailor made our day so that my husband and I were able to see the things most important to us. Her knowledge of the area is truly wonderful. We were able to visit little villages, talk to the shop owners, taste incredible food and see sights we would not have explored on our own. Of course her Mercedes was very clean and comfortable. Yvonne is a warm and friendly host. The day spent with her as our guide was the highlight of our trip to France.

Ingrid is full of historic, trivia, & tidbit facts/information about the entire French Riviera. We hired her for 2 days and she never disappointed us. Learned much about Nice, coastline, Eze, Monaco, Monte Carlo. 3 countries in ONE hour - she made it happened! France, Italy & Monaco. She told us it was the "perfect" time of the year to visit - few tourists & reduced prices, including hotel & shops. 2nd day was spent in Antibes (where Picasso lived 5 months/1946), small family run winery, St. Paul de Vence & more. Picnics both days - breathtaking views of countryside. She brought cloth tablecloths/wine glasses - niceities to add to experience!.Our trip seems surreal now, but we have boundless treasured memories thanks to Ingrid!

I am a travel agent from New York. My company specializes in planning itineraries with private tour guides in each city. I have personally toured with Cécile and sent clients to tour with her. She is smart, warm, knowledgable, and flexible. A few months ago I took a cruise that was supposed to dock in Monte Carlo, but due to weather docked in Villefranche instead. Cécile picked us up there and on the fly came up with a plan for the day that balanced traditional touring with some great local shopping (it was a "girls" trip and we had our priorities). That day we saw Nice, Antibes, and St. Paul. Just last week, my cousin and his new wife visited the area on a cruise (their honeymoon). The ship's itinerary changed at the last minute and they ended up going to Monte Carlo a day later than originally scheduled. Cécile was able to switch the tour day for us and ultimately showed them much more than they would have seen with the original schedule. Cécile is the first person I will contact whenever I, or a client is going to visit the French Riviera.

It's a bit late to write this review since we have taken this trip in June 2019 but it does not seem fair to not write about this trip. It was an exceptional day... exceptional experience. This trip was the highlight of our Nice trip. Our guide, Karen, was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. There are few things which made this trip unforgettable ... 1. The pick up and drop off : The pick up was on time and so was the drop of. So, if someone has other plans, they can easily pursue that. 2. Karen ( of course ) : She is an absolute gem. She is very friendly, helpful which is why we never felt like we were on a trip with tour guide rather we felt like we were bunch of friends .. enjoying our day in sun... in a road trip along french riviera and the medieval villages of Nice. The tour was very detailed and full of information. She explained the history of Nice, the history of the medieval villages, the distinct character of each villages. She is very knowledgeable and trust me when I say 'Knowledgeable' as she studied anthropology .. so all of these are basically her forté. The most important part is.. she never force the information on you.. she makes a friendly conversation and if you are paying attention, you will know lot of things. She was very attentive to all the details like where we can get good food, where we can have water or refill our bottles etc as these things are very important for such a long duration trip. 3. The itinerary : The itinerary is the another thing, which in my opinion, is a key point to make this trip outstanding. The places, which are included in this trip, are near to each other and all are in same direction. It would give you more time to the actual destinations then on the road. I would highly recommend this tour. When I think back, this trip still puts up a smile in my face. Thank you Bingo Tour for such an excellent trip...day...memory !
