What to do and see in Eze, Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur: The Best Private Tours

May 7, 2022 Jeremy Dunfee

Your jaw will drop at the gorgeous view of the Mediterranean from Eze, a charming hilltop town on the Cote d’Azur. Its beautiful cobblestone streets and hot-pink bougainvillea are a far cry from the glamour of Cannes or St-Tropez—and for travelers who could care less about celebrities and megayachts, that’s quite appealing. Shoppers will delight in the many local perfumeries and art galleries.

While you’re in port in Villefranche-sur-Mer, don't miss the chance to see as much of the beautiful French Riviera as you can in half a day. This four-hour private shore excursion will take you to Monaco and Eze. Choose either a morning or afternoon tour. Discover a charming hilltop village: Eze, an eagle nest with a breathtaking view. Also, discover the Principality of Monaco, multifaced country: that will reveal you the charm of the old town. And, the amazing lap of Formula 1 track will lift the veil on the high precision of the "Grand Prix" pilote's skills. Then the legendary square of Monte carlo will reveal itself, amuse yourselves strolling through fancy cars, and chic casinos or simply enjoy the view over the mega-yachts in the Hercule's harbor.

From pick up at our apartment until drop off, the day was wonderful. We seen the advertized sites and our guide, Alexandre, did an outstanding job of balancing our time and our priorities. Our guide was very knowledgeable of the area and the history, and given we were on a private tour his time was our time. Overall, a Grand Day. Bailey

What a wonderful day trip from Toulon and our cruise ship. Sasha from Toursbylocals was supurb! Cannot say enough about this great day excursion. We had a wonderful day driving first to Aix-en-Provence- just a lovely French town (for a quick, buttery croissant & coffee) and onto Cassis a pleasant fishing village by the sea. Sasha led us to a delicious seaside lunch spot where mussels & fries were the local specialties. Cassis was a fun town to walk around and view the locals enjoying their Sunday at the shore. We then drove to the highest scenic road to a fantastic view of the city and area. Sasha knew so much about the sites and the area. Though we learned about the Calanques, we did not have time for a boat ride to visit the spot but learned about these very special and unique places. Everyone loved Sasha as our guide and this special day excursion.

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!

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.
