Monaco, Monte-Carlo, Eze & Famous Houses Private Tour
A full-day private journey through the most iconic addresses on the Cote d'Azur
This Monaco Monte-Carlo Eze private tour takes you on a sweeping nine-hour route through the legendary landscapes and storied villages of the French Riviera. A professional driver-guide collects you directly from your accommodation and returns you there at the end of the day. Every stage of the itinerary can be adapted to your preferences.
The route opens with a panoramic stop above Mont Alban before descending toward Cap Ferrat, where a series of discreet Belle Epoque and modernist villas line the promontory. The Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild, with its nine themed gardens, offers a rare glimpse into the private world of early twentieth-century Riviera life.
After a free-time stop in Villefranche-sur-Mer and an exploration of the medieval hilltop village of Eze, the tour concludes in Monaco and Monte-Carlo. There, the circuit of the Formula 1 Grand Prix, the Casino Square, and the old town around the Prince's Palace provide a fitting close to the day.

Itinerary
The day begins with a scenic stop at Mont Alban for panoramic photographs before the route descends to Cap Ferrat. Your guide points out the notable private villas lining the peninsula as you make your way toward Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild.
Entrance to the villa and its nine gardens is included. The estate combines Venetian, Spanish, Florentine, Japanese, and other horticultural traditions in a setting overlooking the sea on both sides of Cap Ferrat.
A free-time stop in Villefranche-sur-Mer allows for a stroll along the harbour and lunch at a restaurant of your choice. The tour then continues to the hilltop village of Eze, where narrow medieval lanes lead up to an exotic garden and sweeping coastal views. An optional visit to the Fragonard perfumery is available here.
Arriving in Monaco, the tour covers the old town, the square in front of the Prince's Palace, and the viewpoint over Monte-Carlo from the Rock. The nearby cathedral, the site of the 1956 royal wedding, is accessible during free time.
Free time in Monte-Carlo centres on Casino Square, the Hotel de Paris, and the surrounding luxury boutiques. The day closes with a complete drive around the Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit, following the same route taken by the racing cars each May.
