“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.”

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.

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 had the most incredible experience with Nikki during our two day trip to Paris! From start to finish, everything was wonderful. Nikki was incredibly personable and engaging. She was also knowledgeable about the city, offering insightful recommendations and even going out of her way to give us a bit of local history as we passed through iconic landmarks. Nikki made the experience feel personalized and fun. She was patient, attentive to our needs, and always willing to be flexible. The pace of the tour was perfect — not rushed, but also never dragging. I learned so much and came away with a deeper appreciation for the city.
