French Riviera Private Shore Excursion by Minivan

Your own driver-guide, your own pace, the entire Riviera at your fingertips


This French Riviera private shore excursion places a dedicated driver-guide and a comfortable air-conditioned minivan entirely at your disposal for up to seven hours, letting you shape the day around your own interests rather than a fixed group itinerary.

Whether you are drawn to the glamour of Monaco and Monte-Carlo, the hilltop charm of Eze and Saint-Paul de Vence, or the sweeping bay views above Nice, the route is yours to decide. The guide will suggest options based on your departure port and available time, ensuring a coherent and rewarding day.

Families travelling with young children are fully accommodated, as baby seats and booster seats are available on request. The tour concludes with a guaranteed return to the port before your ship departs, so you can explore with complete peace of mind.

Tour Highlights

Exclusive private use of a minivan with a knowledgeable driver-guide for the full seven hours.

Fully flexible itinerary covering Monaco, Cannes, Nice, Eze, Antibes, Menton, and more.

Guaranteed on-time return to your cruise port, removing any risk of missing your ship.

Family-friendly setup with baby seats and booster seats available at no extra arrangement.

Sample Itinerary

1
Departure from Your Cruise Port

Your driver-guide meets you directly at the port and confirms the day's route based on your preferences and ship schedule. Luggage and personal items are stowed in the spacious minivan before departure.

2
Monaco and Monte-Carlo

A natural first stop for many visitors, Monaco offers the famous Casino Square, the Prince's Palace, and the harbour lined with yachts. The guide provides context on the principality's history and culture as you explore at leisure.

3
Eze Village and the Grande Corniche

Perched at nearly 430 metres above the Mediterranean, Eze offers one of the most dramatic panoramas on the Riviera. The medieval village's narrow lanes and exotic garden reward a relaxed visit on foot.

4
Nice and the Bay Overview

From the Castle Hill viewpoint above Old Nice, the full arc of the Baie des Anges stretches out below. The guide can suggest a walk along the Promenade des Anglais or time in the old town's colourful market streets.

5
Optional Stop: Cannes, Antibes, or Saint-Paul de Vence

Depending on time and preference, the route can extend west to Cannes and its famous Croisette, east to Menton near the Italian border, or inland to the artists' village of Saint-Paul de Vence.

6
Return to Port

The driver monitors timing throughout the day to ensure a comfortable return well before your ship's all-aboard time. Drop-off is at the same port where the tour began.
