Jade gave us the most amazing tour around Nice and Monaco!! She picked us up early at the port right after security and we had a nice air conditioned SUV to ourselves. We toured Monaco and then went to Éze where we climbed the steps to Chateau Eza at the top and enjoyed drinks and the spectacular views. Then we made our way back down to meet up with Jade again for the drive back to Nice. We toured the city and then got out to have lunch at an amazing little family restaurant she found for us after several were sold out. We had an incredible lunch and then walked Nice with her as our guide. This could not have been a better day unless she could stop the rain!! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great tour of Nice. When we come back she is our first call!

Highlight of our cruise. We have done many of the ports before so we only did an amalfi tour organised by the ship and our private tour with riviera. Hands down the best trip was with Guy, so knowledgeable on the area and the local villas. Timed our trip perfectly so my 8 year old could see the change of the guard at the palace. If you hate queues and hanging about like myself then this is the company for you.

We booked a tour with Riviera Shore Excursions to take us through Nice and Monaco. Guy was an amazing guide and was very funny, welcoming and knowledgeable. Jade was also excellent in helping me set up our excursion before we left for the cruise back in Toronto. Highly recommended, thanks again!

We had the most amazing day with Jade. From start to finish, the tour was exceptional and exceeded all of our expectations. We visited some truly beautiful places, with the stunning village of Èze being the absolute highlight. It was one of the most incredible places we’ve ever visited. Jade made sure there were plenty of opportunities to stop for photos, allowing us to capture the most phenomenal views along the way. She also recommended and arranged a wonderful local restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious lunch. As the afternoon temperatures soared, Jade thoughtfully organised a visit to a local perfumery, giving us a chance to cool down while enjoying something a little different from the usual tourist attractions. It was such a lovely touch and one of our favourite parts of the day. Jade’s knowledge of the area, warm personality and patience are exceptional. Her communication ahead of our day was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, and she genuinely made our day feel personal and special. Thank you, Jade, for creating such wonderful memories. We had an unforgettable day and will definitely be booking more time with you when we next visit the French Riviera. We couldn’t recommend Jade and Riviera Shore Excursions more highly! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Some travel memories stay with you because of the places you visit. Others stay with you because of the people who make you feel genuinely cared for. Our tour through Èze and Monaco with Riviera Shore Excursions was one of those unforgettable experiences. From the moment we stepped into the van, Jade and her father, Guy, made it clear that providing a top-tier experience wasn’t just their business it was their passion. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, and throughout the day, we never felt like just another group of tourists. We felt like welcomed guests. One moment, in particular, will stay with me forever. My senior mother wasn’t able to enjoy one of our stops, and I sent Jade a quick message asking if she could check on her. Without hesitation, she went to my mom, then sent me a message letting me know she had found her and that everything was okay. When we met back up, I found the two of them sitting together at a café, laughing and enjoying a wonderful conversation. Knowing my mom wasn’t simply being watched over, but was genuinely cared for, allowed me to continue enjoying the tour with complete peace of mind. That level of compassion and personal attention is something you can’t put a price on. It speaks volumes about who Jade and Guy are and how much they truly care about every guest who chooses to spend the day with them. If you’re looking for more than just transportation from one beautiful destination to another if you want an experience that feels personal, thoughtful, and unforgettable, I cannot recommend Riviera Shore Excursions enough. Thank you, Jade and Guy, for showing our family such kindness and for creating memories we’ll treasure for years to come.

We recently booked a shore excursion with Riviera Shore Excursions from Villefranche, France, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Our private tour included visits to Eze Village, Monaco, and Monte Carlo, with plenty of free time at each stop to explore and enjoy the sights at our own pace. Our guide, Mr. Guy, was outstanding—courteous, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. As a local guide, he made us feel less like tourists and more like guests visiting his hometown. His insights and recommendations added a personal touch that made the experience truly special. Guy drove us safely between destinations in a very clean and comfortable vehicle. What impressed us most were the thoughtful details that showed how much they care about their guests: booster seats for our daughters, complimentary bottled water, cooling water spray, and even music for the kids. These small touches made a big difference and helped keep everyone comfortable throughout the day. The excellent service started long before the tour itself. The reservation process was simple and straightforward, and communication with Jade was always clear, timely, and professional. Every question was answered promptly, giving us confidence that everything was well organized. Bottom line: Jade and Guy clearly understand the tour business and do an exceptional job. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine hospitality set them apart. Based on our experience, I would highly recommend Riviera Shore Excursions and would not hesitate to book with them again.
