We took this tour in late December. I don't remember the driver/tour guide's name (sorry) but he was easy to talk to, gave us a lot of information. We started at the winery and met the winemaker George. George spoke only French so our tour guide helped translate but towards the end we were all able to converse a little. It was very cool to see how he ages the wine in the sun. We learned about his wine making process and then tasted several of his wines plus his olives. We bought some bottles to drink back at Nice and I wish we had bought more. The winery is full of beautiful paintings done by the winemaker's brother, who also designs the labels. We then went to St Paul-de-Vence and toured the little village. Since it was Christmas time, the village was decorated and was really very pretty. I recommend this tour if you have any interest in wine (and even if you don't because you might after this tour!). We were a family with 4 young adults, only one was a teen (I had to choose a category) to submit this review.
In this private full-day tour, wake up your senses with a variety of aromas and flavours.

We booked a Localgrapher for a couples shoot in Arizona. The results were okay at best, and we regretted not seeking out an established local in the area. For the price, we received 60 very average choices and the ability to select 35 shots. We couldn’t even find 35 framed correctly. The localgrapher website is also a joke which requires a youtube video to figure out. The UI is terrible and the photos will disappear rapidly so do not wait to download (set aside a couple hours - that’s how bad it is). But really, just avoid. Hire someone directly.

Small theme park suitable for children up to around 12. They can have great fun while the adults rest. The park operates on jetons (tokens). These come in various pack sizes up to 35 for €30 (as at August 2020). Rides are usually 1 token. There is also a bouncy castle area at 5 jetons but the children can come and go all day for that. I would recommend this to anyone in the Menton area or passing through.

We booked this tour 45 minutes prior to when we wanted to leave, Mago showed up, great spirit & attitude. This tour is awesome, get to see great sights & places you wouldn’t go unless you were experienced with area or local. Mago is super-friendly, very knowledgeable (has done his research) & is passionate about the area. I would suggest using Mago for all tours of the Riviera.
Two countries in one day: in Italy "Ventimiglia" in the heart of its atmosphere of charming houses in pastel colors. Two different sublime criteria between its old town and its recent town separated by the Roya river, not forgetting its renowned cuisine. Passing romantic Monaco, the city of a thousand dreams. And on the way back savor the sumptuous beauty of the chin explained by the Saint Michele basilica, the unmissable monument and its art workshops will warm your heart.
