A French Riviera private tour with your own chauffeur means you set the pace, keep your group together, and move along the coast without bus timetables or crowded minibuses. Most guests start from Nice or Nice Côte d’Azur Airport. We pick you up, follow a route you agree in advance, and return you to your hotel or terminal the same day.

If you already know where you want to go, choose one of our planned day tours below. If you want several stops or a route built around your flight times, we can arrange that too through our private driver in Nice service.

Popular private tours from Nice

These are the day tours we run most often for visitors staying in Nice or arriving at the airport. Each page lists typical duration, stops, and what is included.

Monaco private tour from Nice
Half-day or full-day. Old Monaco, Monte Carlo, coastal roads, and often Èze on the same run. Driving time from central Nice to Monaco is about 35–45 min depending on traffic.

Èze private tour from Nice
Medieval village, views over the coast, optional perfume factory visit. Works on its own in about 4–5 hours or paired with Monaco.

Saint-Paul-de-Vence private tour from Nice
Walled art village inland. Allow roughly 45–60 min from Nice by car. Popular with guests who want a slower pace and gallery stops.

You can also hire a driver by the hour or day without a fixed itinerary. See private driver Monaco and private driver Cannes if your stay is based outside Nice.

What a private Riviera tour includes

When you book a private tour with Kosy Limousine, you get a dedicated vehicle and chauffeur for the agreed duration. Pick-up is usually at your hotel in Nice, Villefranche, or the airport. We confirm the route and timing before the day starts.

Typically included:

• Private vehicle (sedan, van, or SUV depending on group size and booking)
• Professional English-speaking chauffeur
• Fuel and tolls on the agreed route
• Waiting time at each stop within the booked hours
• Luggage space if you are touring on arrival or departure day

Usually not included unless we agree otherwise:

• Museum, garden, or palace entrance tickets
• Meals and drinks
• A licensed guide inside monuments (your chauffeur knows the region and can suggest where to walk; a separate guide can be arranged on request)

We track flight delays for guests who combine a tour with Nice airport transfer on the same day.

Half-day vs full-day private tours

Half-day works well if you have a short stay or an evening flight. Full-day suits first-time visitors who want Monaco, a hill village, and time on the Moyenne Corniche or Grande Corniche without rushing.

Rates depend on vehicle type, season, and exact route. Share your dates and group size and we will send a fixed quote. No per-person OTA markup.

French Riviera destinations at a glance

Guests often ask which towns fit in one day. Below is a practical overview from a Nice base. Distances are approximate by road.

1. Monaco and Monte Carlo — Palace district, harbour, Casino square, Grand Prix circuit viewpoints.
2. Èze — Pedestrian old town perched above the sea; Fragonard factory nearby.
3. Saint-Paul-de-Vence — Ramparts, art galleries, views inland.
4. Antibes and Juan-les-Pins — Old town, Picasso Museum, marina.
5. Cannes — La Croisette, Le Suquet old quarter; longer day from Nice (about 45–55 min each way).
6. Villefranche-sur-Mer and Cap-Ferrat — Harbour, coastal walk, Villa Ephrussi optional.
7. Grasse — Perfume houses; pairs well with Saint-Paul-de-Vence.
8. Menton — Italian border town; best as a dedicated eastern Riviera day.

We do not try to cover all eight in one day. Two or three stops with time to walk is usually enough.

Why book a chauffeur-led tour instead of a group excursion

Group coaches follow fixed schedules. You wait for stragglers, skip things you care about, and spend time at stops you would rather shorten.

A private tour with a driver gives you door-to-door service from Nice, room for bags if you are touring before a flight, and a vehicle matched to your party size. Families and small groups often find the per-person cost closer to premium coach products once you split the vehicle.

We are a limousine and chauffeur company based on the Côte d’Azur, not a resale platform. You speak to us about the route, the car, and the price before you confirm.

Our fleet and chauffeurs

We operate Mercedes sedans, vans, and SUVs suitable for airport runs and full days on winding corniche roads. Vehicles are air-conditioned and maintained for daily service.

Chauffeurs are used to international guests, cruise arrivals, and tight flight connections. Languages on request; English is standard.

If you need a child seat, extra luggage space, or a specific model for an event in Monaco or Cannes, say so when you request a quote.

Custom itineraries and multi-day plans

The tours listed above are starting points. Common custom requests include:

• Airport pickup, full-day tour, drop-off at a Cannes or Monaco hotel
• Two half-days from Nice on consecutive days (east one day, west the next)
• Saint-Paul-de-Vence and Grasse perfume visit in one afternoon
• Evening transfer to Monaco after a daytime tour elsewhere

For open-ended hire without a fixed sightseeing plan, use our private driver Nice page. For point-to-point trips only, see airport and city transfer options on the same site.

How booking works

1. Tell us your dates, pick-up location, group size, and any must-see stops.
2. We propose duration (half or full day), vehicle, and a fixed price.
3. You confirm by email or phone. We send pick-up time and chauffeur contact details.
4. On the day, your driver meets you at the agreed point and follows the itinerary. Adjustments are possible if timing allows.

For cruise passengers with limited time in port, mention your ship and return deadline when you write. We will suggest a realistic route.
