Gregory R.
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.

Nice Tour Reviews

“Unforgettable Tour to Monaco with Gregory!”
We were a family of seven traveling together, and our experience could not have been better! Gregory picked us up in Cannes and took us all the way to Monaco for what turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. From the very start, he was so kind, welcoming, and professional — making sure everyone in our family felt comfortable and excited for the day ahead. Throughout the journey, he shared fascinating stories and fun facts about the French Riviera, and once we arrived in Monaco, he brought every corner of the city to life with his detailed explanations, historical insights, and personal anecdotes. It was clear he truly loves what he does and takes great pride in showing visitors the beauty and history of this amazing place. He was patient with our large group, always ready to answer questions and adjust the pace so that everyone could enjoy the experience. His enthusiasm, warmth, and deep knowledge made the day unforgettable for all of us. Thanks to him, we didn’t just visit Monaco — we experienced it. It felt like exploring with a local friend who genuinely cared about making our day special. We’re so grateful for his dedication and kindness. If you’re planning a visit to Monaco, we can’t recommend him enough!

“2 days with Ana”
We used Anna for two separate tours during our trip, and we’re so glad we did. On our first day, we explored Nice, Èze, and Monaco — and there's no way we could have covered so much ground on our own. I’ve traveled extensively, and I can honestly say Anna is one of the best guides I’ve ever had — truly exceptional. She is a consummate professional and did a fantastic job understanding the dynamic of our family of four. She was especially great with my teenage daughters, making the experience both fun and engaging for them. One thing that really stood out: we never once had to ask her to take a photo. She instinctively knew all the best spots and always offered to capture the moment — a small gesture that made a big impact. Her English is excellent, and communication was effortless. The tours were perfectly planned — she never rushed us, made sure we had time for a souvenir stop, and coordinated seamlessly with her husband, who met us with the car at various points to save time and energy. Not a single moment was wasted. I wholeheartedly recommend Anna and her husband. Their attention to detail, warmth, and professionalism made our time in the South of France even more memorable.

Anna B.
Dear Amy, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for such a thoughtful and generous review! It was an absolute pleasure to spend those days with you, your husband, and your two wonderful girls. I'm so glad you enjoyed both tours and felt that everything was well-paced and tailored to your family — that means a lot to me. Your daughters were a joy to guide — curious, kind, and full of positive energy. It was lovely to see them so engaged throughout the day! And I’m thrilled to hear that the little touches, like helping with photos, made a difference — capturing memories is part of the magic, after all. Please send my warmest regards to your family. I hope our paths cross again one day — the Riviera will be waiting! With best wishes, Anna
