We had an excellent tour of Monaco provided by Jenny of Riviera & Tours. Jenny brought Monaco to life with an amazing selection of sites combined with a fascinating history and stories of the principality. We visited all the highlights of Monaco and Jenny provided the background story along the way. Jenny's English is perfect so everything was easy to follow for native and non native English speakers. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and give it 5 stars out of 5. SUPERB!!!!Richard L

The directions of where to meet were confusing. One address was outside by the Jardin Apostolino and one was inside the train terminal. Many sites were not available to see due to the Grand Prix race. They’ve been holding this event since 1939, so I don’t understand how the tour guide didn’t know streets were closed. Spent an hour wasting time at a food court. There were 24 people in our group, double the number advertised.Alexandra_S

Some of the buildings in Monaco. We were quite disappointed with the tour. Victoria was very nice and she shared a lot interesting information. However the problem began with confusion on the meeting place. We were a little confused where to meet; when you don't know the area the instructions need to be more specific. Also what shocked us was when we were by the Oceanic museum and I mentioned that Jacques Custeau was involved with the museum and worked closely with Prince Albert, she had no idea who he was. This is extremely important information. We also had a hard time hearing her and she often stopped in sunny spots, which was hard on us. So all in all we thought the tour was mediocre.Andrea_O

Some of the sites and views were just breathtaking. Only real negative was guide had two different languages to cope with. Would have been much better if English speaking only group as it really slowed down the tour
