Being a native from Villefranche-sur-Mer, located between Nice and Monaco and facing the world-famous Cap Ferrat, I grew up in the heart of the French Riviera. I loved going to see the festivities of the Nice Carnaval in February like the Menton lemon festival, the Monaco palace with its guards and its Cousteau Oceanic museum, the luxury cars of Monte-Carlo were something special for me because my father was a professional sports car mechanic who participated in the Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix for more than 10 years. We were also lucky in May to enjoy the Cannes Film Festival and meet film actors and actresses or French televisions celebrities walking on the Boulevard de La Croisette. Every time I mention my first job outside of Nice, outside of France, I always have the same answer full of surprises " how did you end up in Idaho...?" Well, back in Feb. 2002, during the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, I had the great opportunity to work for two years at the famous Sun Valley Ski Resort as a restaurant and banquet manager. I enjoyed every opportunity to visit most of the West Side and have fond memories of it because it was so different from my hometown French Riviera and also another exclusive, "rich and famous" place to experience. Back in Nice, back in school to be certified as a licensed lecturer-guide, i now take every opportunity to show my clients my area as a local and make sure they feel at home, throughout their stay. For 18 years I am specialized in providing private tours on the French Riviera & in Provence, which means that all my tours can be tailor-made at your convenience, from the great classic for first-time visitors to unique experiences, including adapted for children, my programs can also be customized as multi-day tours so that you to enjoy, discover and understand South of France today and yesterday, its history, its heritage and monuments, its gastronomy and its art of living. Looking forward to meeting you soon…

Having more than 15 years of experience as an environmental consultant in different structures in France and abroad, I am now reorienting myself toward an activity that has always fascinated me. Eco-tourism and contact with people from different parts of the world are an environment in which I like to evolve. I take the opportunity to enrich this activity with my professional knowledge and my skills in environmental project management and local culture. We are a team of professional guides, with a lot of experience behind us, each specialising in different areas. We cover different disciplines such as: geology, biology, photography, marine biology. Furthermore, we are of different nationalities, which makes us even more valuable and versatile.

I am a licensed guide and I have been a guide for several years now. I am passionate about creating unique and memorable experiences that are normally available only to locals or insiders. My specialty is helping clients understand how people live here, how they think, how they eat, and what a French Riviera lifestyle actually feels like and of course its history in very easy and pleasant form. I adapt my tours depending on each client. Going hand in hand with an Official Guide guarantees to your guests a quality visit.

Hello from Provence, South of France ! This year has been an incredible busy year with many tourists visiting Provence. Provence IS the place to visit with so many different attractions such as: beautiful scenery, excellent gastronomy, great wine experience, large variety of architecture dated from as far as Roman time, Renaissance to now and of course our famous lavender fields! I have been a tour guide in the region of Provence & Côté d'Azur for more than 6 years, I can easily plan day tours or multiday tours to the liking of any visitors looking for a beautiful memorable vacation in our region.

French Riviera Tour Reviews
Amy B.
“Beautiful day in Antibes and Cannes”
We used Anna for two separate tours during our trip to the South of France, and we’re so glad we did. On our first day, we explored Nice, Èze, and Monaco — places we never could have covered so efficiently or enjoyably on our own. On the second day, we visited Antibes and Cannes. I honestly can’t say enough about how much more enjoyable both days were because we spent them with Anna. I’ve traveled extensively, and Anna is truly one of the best guides I’ve ever had. Her English is excellent, so communication was seamless. The tours were well-paced, never rushed, and even included time for souvenir stops. Anna also coordinated perfectly with her husband, who picked us up at various points, making the logistics smooth and maximizing our time. Anna's warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail made our time in the South of France even more special. I wholeheartedly recommend Anna and her husband — they were a true highlight of our trip.
