A good way to experience the variety of places that make up the French Riviera - A comprehensive exposure to the French Riviera in about ten hours. Our driver was also the guide with entertaining stories, clear guidance about what to see and time to wander and even shop in each place.

A great tour of the French Riviera - Thank you Xavier for the wonderful tour of the French Riviera. We loved all parts of it from Cannes to Monaco. You helped us cover a lot of sights in a one day cruise tour. Your knowledge of the areas we visited and driving skills were superb. Tres Bien

Allow enough time for your Tender Boat to get you to the Port of Villefranche on time - Although we did not end up taking this excursion, I do want to thank the excursion company for their patience, while waiting for us to arrive, and then quickly agreeing to refund us our money, when we could not get to the agreed upon departure place even within one hour of the departure time. To make a long story short, we did what it took to get on the 1st Tender Boat from our Royal Caribbean cruise ship, to try and get to the departure point by as close to 8:30am, as possible, but that boat only got us to shore by ~9:30am. So, please be careful not to book this excursion, for an 8:30am start, if your "in port" time at the Port of Villefranche begins at 8:30am.

Excellent Shore Excursion - We wanted to see more than what our Cruise Ship offered, so we booked this & were quite happy. Once out of the port building, several people were waiting with signs that said Liven Up & John was our driver. He spoke perfect English and was an absolute delight. We felt completely catered to & saw everything there was to see. Only things I would have done differently was to stand in line early to be on the first tender. We were on the 3rd tender (of 30) and were still 40 minutes late because the tender boats are so small.

Fantastic Full-Day Tour - We toured for an entire day with Suzana Linharg (sp?) of Liven Up tours. We were a couple in a van, with another father and son, and enjoyed one of the best experiences that I could ever imagine. Suzana was knowledgeable, personable, and an absolute joy to be with for an entire day, and we learned SO much about Nice and its surrounding highlights. I can offer no stronger recommendation to take this tour.

Read this before booking | a couple of recos for the future - This tour was good; however, two other tours from Viator got canceled, and another tour I asked to move to one day later because our ship wasn't going to be there due to weather and they wouldn't refund my money ($500) or allow us to adjust our date. So, 5 tours I scheduled with them total for this trip, and 3 of them were either canceled or they wouldn't accommodate the day adjustment. And, their customer service sent me an email to my request telling me "no" again on the refund. Unbelievable and horrible business ethics. Specially, this tour was okay. We were in a small van with seven customers plus the guide. She was knowledgeable and friendly. The sites and scenery were amazing. Here are a couple of recommendations to help in the future. Have a planned and efficient plan for the day and how to get to all the sites. We drove around for hours with small, quick stops to snap a couple of pictures. It felt slightly like the amazing race, yet you are on vacation. We left at 8:30 and got back at 6:30. That's just too long and very exhausting. Net, net: I'm glad I went, but there should be a solid plan for the day so you feel like you aren't the person navigating. We aren't the subject matter experts, so we trust you all to do that part. Which, ultimately, is why we paid money for the tour. All that said, given my terrible experience with Viator, this tour (1) at least wasn't canceled, and (2) I got a lot of beautiful pictures.

deception for this cruise - This excursion was to be 8 person maximum but not private excursion - We were picked up at the cruise ship dock but there was only my wife and I that showed up - our driver picked us up - drove to Nice, France - which was very heavy traffic and then west to some other small town and that was okay - what was not okay is that we drove back to the cruise ship through a very time consuming Nice, france that wasted a good 1 hour of our excursion time - picked up 4 more passengers at the cruise port for their 1/2 day excursion heading east to Monaco - why would i want to pay to go to nice and then on the same road back to the cruise ship?? Do yourself a favor - go with a private tour - i really deserve 1/2 payment back!
