10 out of 10 - It’s a hike through the mountains so if you tend to get motion sickness, this may not be the tour for you.

Lovely Tour! - This was a fantastic and very pleasurable outing. Nora, our guide, was the best! She was friendly and very knowledgeable. The market in San Remo was amazing - lots of deals. And Aquadolce was a beautiful medieval town. We had the best pasta ever there for lunch.
This was a True small group tour as advertised (3 guests), and we all received attention.
If you love Italy, markets and fabulous views of the Mediterranean, it's recommended!

LOVELY ITALIAN DAY! - We spent a lovely day in Italy with our wonderful guide Nora! Traveled from Nice with dear friends (four of us) and enjoyed every moment. Charming Nora gave us fascinating information about the Italian Riviera -- history, climate, commerce, food and wine -- and expertly drove us along the coast and into the mountains from Nice to Ventimiglia, Bordeghera, Dolceacqua, Menton and back again. Highly recommend this tour!!!

Lovely Riviera Day - The towns are fantastic! Especially San Remo! I loved the town and the market. Menton was also lovely and worth visiting.
I really thought there was very little in Dolceacqua. We saw the old town, but very little was open. The restaurant in the square had delicious local wine, pasta and pizza. Very reasonably priced. We also had a very nice cappuccino. We spent the majority of our time there.
Others in our group went to the Italian restaurant on the side of the road as you come into town not on the square, they said it was the worst meal (no pizza and overcooked cold pasta) and they tried to over charge them.
Nicole was our tour guide. She was very informative and did a great job!

Excellent guide - Excellent day out, thanks to Thierry. Very helpful, knowledgeable, funny and thankfully adapted the plans for the day as it was raining, thoroughly enjoyed our day out!! Excellent lunch in Dolceaqua at a restaurant recommended by Thierry but we can't remember the name!! Mushrooms we bought from the market were good too!!

A Good Time if you prefer a semi-self-directed Tour - This tour was not entirely what we expected- but it was still a good time nonetheless and it gave use the chance to "go to Italy' from France.
Expect a long day- if it is summer sunscreen, a hat and water are a MUST. This is more of a self guided/on your own tour- the guide does explain history on the way and you learn interesting facts- but then you are left to your own devices- which my husband and I loved. we especially enjoyed walking ourselves up to the castle in Dolceaqua.
The only reason I removed a star is the fact that we booked an English speaking tour- and instead were with individuals who spoke French (our guide was accommodating and explained things to us in English)....and our van had some mechanical issues. Overall this is a good value for the money.
