Monaco is famous for its laid-back atmosphere, and we will certainly enjoy a relaxing day out here. There’s more than enough to keep us busy, too, with museums, gardens, monuments and much more to look forward to.
We will explore Monte Carlo, situated in a prominent position at the base of the Maritime Alps. At the western end of the resort is the world-famous Place du Casino, the gambling centre which has made Monte Carlo the playground of the rich and famous.

Located very close to the border of France and Italy, Menton is, in many ways, more Italian than French. It has its own microclimate, with it generally being milder than the rest of the French Riviera. Here, we will find pretty architecture and wonderful scenery we can take in during our time there.

Relaxing way to travel. Holiday starts from the minute you step on the coach. Beautiful excursions. Friendly drivers. Nothing to think about or organise. All the planning is dome for you.

Not too bad. Hotel staff friendly but food and drink not great - and too far to walk elsewhere for a reasonable alternative. We did go to the places advertised - the main point of the trip!

The husband and wife team, Tim and Caroline Roberts, looked after us very well and are excellent drivers. I would join and recommend their tours in the future. The tour was well planned and executed by the duo. We spent two night outbound and inbound in Reims, the champagne country of France. It would have been lovely to have included a trip to one of the cellar tours.

The crew were excellent. The coach was old and cramped and was due to be decommissioned in the following 3 weeks. The food was basic, how I didn't get poisoned by the so called swordfish (pictured), well I must be made of strong stuff. The drinks inclusive was a joke. Free drinks between 7 and 10pm but dinner was 7.30 till gone 9pm. The hotel filled with rowdy teens on the 3rd day making it impossible to sleep. The tours were interesting. Very early starts, I think I'll stay clear of coach holidays in future.
