LOVELY ITALIAN DAY! - We spent a lovely day in Italy with our wonderful guide Nora! Traveled from Nice with dear friends (four of us) and enjoyed every moment. Charming Nora gave us fascinating information about the Italian Riviera -- history, climate, commerce, food and wine -- and expertly drove us along the coast and into the mountains from Nice to Ventimiglia, Bordeghera, Dolceacqua, Menton and back again. Highly recommend this tour!!!

Lovely Riviera Day - The towns are fantastic! Especially San Remo! I loved the town and the market. Menton was also lovely and worth visiting. I really thought there was very little in Dolceacqua. We saw the old town, but very little was open. The restaurant in the square had delicious local wine, pasta and pizza. Very reasonably priced. We also had a very nice cappuccino. We spent the majority of our time there. Others in our group went to the Italian restaurant on the side of the road as you come into town not on the square, they said it was the worst meal (no pizza and overcooked cold pasta) and they tried to over charge them. Nicole was our tour guide. She was very informative and did a great job!

Excellent guide - Excellent day out, thanks to Thierry. Very helpful, knowledgeable, funny and thankfully adapted the plans for the day as it was raining, thoroughly enjoyed our day out!! Excellent lunch in Dolceaqua at a restaurant recommended by Thierry but we can't remember the name!! Mushrooms we bought from the market were good too!!

Nice trip to Italy - Nice your. We went to San Remo for about 2 hours then drove through some of the Italian towns along the border. Then we went to dulcovacqu which was nice to have lunch at. There are not many shops there so 2.5 hours is a little much. We then drove the scenic route to nice and were back at 4pm. Our driver said they often stop in Menton for 25 minutes - we did not do this bc our people have already been there. I emailed the company a few days before and asked about Menton since I saw it mentioned in some reviews and they said it does not go there so I went on my own. Tour should be explicit on whether it does or does not stop there. Good tour guide. You really see the true non touristy parts of Italy.

Italian adventure - A very memorable drive to Italy to experience Italian culture. Plenty of time for shopping at the market and walking through 2 towns. Experiencing the views of the coastline during the drive back to France was amazing and well worth taking the tour.
