Booked this 1/2 day tour with some initial concerns because we were arriving on a NCL ship into the port of Cannes and this is a tender port and our arrival time and the tour start time was the same! Key here was to be on the 1st tender into ports folks! No worries folks we had a great day and yes we had enough time! When we arrived on the dock we met up with Mowmen our driver and guide! We were whisked away in a comfortable van where we planned the details of our tour and the timing for each location. If you don't have mobility issue go to Eze, it was just so special to walk through this medieval village, a pleasant surprise for our group. In Eze pay the fee to go in the gardens at the top of the village and be gobsmacked with the views. From here we travels in to Monaco were we had free time on our own to look around and grab a snack. We met Mowmen on time and then went to Monte Carlo and parked real close to the Casino where we had more free time. Note that the big bus tours can't get you where his van could go. Overall just a great tour, we returned to Cannes we we got dropped to a waterfront pub where we could see the ship and enjoyed a cold beverage and discussed our wonderful day with Mowmen!Pauline_J

Fred was an excellent guide on this private half day tour to Eze and Monaco. We had a great time and only wish we would have focused on just Monaco to give us more time there. With a baby in tow, Eze was just too difficult, but the itinerary was our choice so it's not the tour companies fault whatsoever.AnnMarie_M

Be aware that the driver will not go with you but rather will bring you to the different stops and give you the best local tips to make the best out of every sight to see while he waits by the car for you. We loved it and felt very lucky to have a driver that really cared about giving us the best experience in France. We can only recommend this tour - the highlight of our trip!

We were on cruise but wanted to see more of Monte Carlo and the surrounding area than the cruise line excursions offered. So, we booked a private excursion with Liven Up. From the start to finish it was a great experience. Communications from the company were excellent. They were there to meet us as soon as we got off the ship. The driver was an outstanding guide. We had an excellent half day. Would definitely recommend this 5-star excursion.
