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.

My name is Dorothee and I will be your host here in beautiful Nice, France. I can say that I am the type of person who is active, and curious, who enjoys new projects. Born in Paris, I studied in Nice and I am an official trilingual tour guide since 2005. I am also a photographer, reporter, videomaker and casting director. I find everything creative very interesting, the same is the case with tourist guiding, it is something that is dynamic, always interesting and never the same. I like to connect with people and create cultural interactivity, share my experiences about the diversity of our culture, history and people. I created a non-profit organization to highlight and protect our heritage, I like to combine tourism and art and listen to what others have to say. As a tourist guide, besides Nice, I also worked in Paris, Spain, Italy, and Portugal I ve been a tourist guide teacher as well and I wrote 10 travel' guides about Peru and Argentina for the web : great advices, restaurants, history and itineraries, not to miss ... illustrated with pictures. Very useful. I consider myself as open-minded, friendly and kind person and I am looking forward to meeting you in my Nice so we can have a chat and fun together.

Hello! Nice to meet you! My name's Benjamin. I am honoured to show you my Mother's hometown of Aix en Provence! I speak English with a clear voice as I was born in the UK. My mother is French and I speak Spanish because I lived in Peru for 9 years. We have family records that date all the way back from 1875 and I share stories both personal and public stories on the tour. Beside guiding I am an English professor at the local university, a hobbyist historian and world traveler like you! Besides sharing my love for the city, I really enjoy meeting people and I hope I get a short chance to get to know you! I usually do my tours in English, but can translate to Spanish. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have a group and want to arrange a date for a spanish only tour, 'si, se puede' as they say. Furthermore, if you have any other questions I will answer them when you message me. Let me leave you with one of my favorite Emile Zola quotes: "Nothing develops intelligence like travel." See you on the tour! Benjamin

“I got a lot of my passion to study and to share knowledge from both my parents who are professors. And when I say to share, I really mean a communication to connect, to exchange, where I not only pass information, but also listen and learn. It’s very important for me to create a comfortable atmosphere for everyone. To learn should be a moment of expansion, growth and therefore happiness and pleasure. That is no such thing as “silly questions”, the most important thing is to be curious, to stay sincere with yourself about the unknown, so we can together find the answers. There is no better feeling that knowing that you helped someone initiate or develop him/herself to the art world with your “push”. I fell in love with Art History many years ago, even before my graduation, for me, it’s the nicest way to understand human society. We study the past, so we can live better in the present and construct together a finer future.”
