France

Being a native from Villefranche-sur-Mer, in the heart of the French Riviera, a little fishermen's village located right between Nice and Monaco and facing the world-famous Cap Ferrat, I grew up in the valley outside Nice and started to discover the cities of the Côte d'Azur as a young boy with my parents and family, later on as a teenager with my friends. After studying corporate public relations, I had one of the best opportunity of my life, something that I secretly always wished, to go live in United States, working for the famous Sun Valley ski resort for two years in Idaho as a restaurant and banquet manager. When I came back to Nice, I went back to school to be graduated as a French professional tour guide and lecturer in English and Spanish, then i started to work as a tour guide in different tour companies and quickly decided to face a new challenge by opening a tour guide company that will look more like me, which means showing my region as a local to my clients and make sure they feel as with friends, all along their stay, not just when they are with me for the tour. Providing private professional guided tours today for shore excursions or visitors staying in various hotels in Cannes, Monaco or Nice is obviously the greatest and most enjoyable job that suit me, as natural and sincere I can be, it pushes me on being exceptionally great every day because my guest deserves so much coming from so far to discover our region, i only have one day to stay in their memories for a very long time, showing you the best places around the French Riviera. Since 2007, me and my team of native born and raised professional tour guide are specialized in providing private tours on the French Riviera, which mean that we adjust our tours with your requests and wishes, we have had a lots of unique and very interesting experiences that we will always remember because of sharing unique life moments.

Thank you so much Delighted to meet you both Come back for more adventures!

Great guide, great tour

We had a wonderful all-day private tour of Luberon villages with Nathalie. We collaborated on the planning: we told her our priorities, which she made sure were met, and she planned the rest. We made adjustments as we went - she was helpful and very accommodating. She reserved lunch for us at a superb restaurant with a lovely view and met us afterwards. She was also patient and flexible while I debated making a purchase (which I did). She met us at our Airbnb in a very comfortable vehicle. Nathalie felt like a friend from the outset, personable, warm and funny. Her knowledge of the area was so helpful and her driving was very good. It was very nice not to worry about driving or parking. It was a full and truly satisfying day!!

Happy that I helped making this day memorable for you I really enjoyed meeting you! Hope to see you again
