AMAZING TOUR GUIDE - Jenny was such an amazing tour guide helping us create such beautiful memories here in Monaco. In addition to seeing such amazing views, We especially loved that you took time to take pictures getting us, treating us to gelato 🍨 and getting our passport stamped 😊 Jenny was very caring and thoughtful and making sure we found our way back to the ship when we came VERY close to missing our ship. We are so grateful to have met such an extraordinary person.

Wonderful tour of Monaco! - If you are trying to decide on a tour choose THIS one. Jenny is the most delightful guide with so much enthusiasm and energy! She has several different tours, but we chose her for Monaco and she was SO accommodating! We went to Eze in the morning on our own (which is very easy - no need for a guide) and then we met up with Jenny in Monaco later in the day when it was less hot! We took the train from Eze - which is very easy and met her at the Casino but she will also meet you at the train station and guide you back! If you think Monaco is all glamour and not interesting… think again. Old Town Monaco is lovely! Jenny knows every detail and you will see the whole little country in a few hours. She will take you to spots you would not find on your own! We had a private tour with our family and it was perfect - so much better than the large tours (and be careful as some organizers will advertise a tour as private and then change it on you. You will show up and see 20 people and it’s too late to do anything!!!). We highly recommend Jenny!

This is a must for seeing the highlights of Monaco - Jenny is so kind, energetic, and passionate about her tour, and the experience will leave you smiling. She offered to take pictures of us at the beautiful views in Monaco, always checked in to make sure we were comfortable and not too hot, and she even helped us with navigation after the tour to get back to where we needed to be. This is a must-do tour if you have one day in Monaco 💕 Greetings to Jenny and your family from Charlotte, North Carolina!

Exceptional - Best guide ever! Thorough, friendly and took our group to the most historic, local known paths, avoided the crowds yet shared all the gems of Monica. We had two young children and she captivated them for 4 hours all while engaging with the four adults in the group. We learned more about Monica than ever expected!

Magnificent Monaco Tour 🇲🇨 - Our tour guide was Jenny and she was absolutely amazing!!! She was very knowledgeable about the city and all of the history. We are a family of four and Jenny took wonderful care of my family and I. She was extremely accommodating by providing cold bottled water during the tour, she offered to take so many great pictures of us. She also provided delicious local snacks and the bonus was a sweet surprise at the end. Jenny is truly one of one, so if you have the fortunate opportunity to be in Monaco please book with Jenny you will thank me later!

100% recommend! - I wholeheartedly recommend this tour! Monaco is beautiful and I enjoyed learning so much about the history, especially about Grace Kelly and the royal families. We saw everything, I feel like we literally left no stone unturned. Plus Jenny was fantastic! I’ve taken dozens of tours all around the world and never have I ever encountered a guide who was so passionate and dedicated to ensuring their guests had the best experience possible. It was extremely hot the day I was there, but Jenny was so attentive - making sure we stayed in the shade as much as we could and taking breaks as needed. A huge benefit to her keeping the group small. She kept her enthusiasm level at 800% all day which really helped too! Getting to chat with her was one of the highlights of the day, and she takes great pictures, which I appreciated as a solo traveler. And the little *surprises* throughout the day really made the experience. I can’t say enough good things. Thank you, Jenny, and greetings from Austin, Texas!

The best tour guide in Monaco - Jenny is an exceptional tour guide. She put us at ease and was very engaging, her knowledge was incredible. The tour was so well thought through with a really coherent Oder, we saw loads, learnt loads and even had a coffee stop, with some yummy cakes that Jenny got for us. We had a short boat ride across the port Hercule, then a wonderful time in the old town and botanical gardens. Jenny even took us to the town hall to get a Monaco passport stamp, so do bring your passports. Jenny included a welcome water break and bathroom break too. We can highly recommend Jenny’s tour and will definitely look her up when we come again. Thank you Jenny you were a star!
