Reviews
This tour was fantastic! Our driver, Moman, was prompt, courteous, and generally a pleasure while he transported us from Monaco to the Italian Markets, including San Remo, and back again. I would take this trip again if I were staying in Monaco again. We booked the small group and it ended up being just my daughter and myself! We felt like royalty being chauffeured around.
Great trip, great guide
The Italian Markets are too much like Markets in all major World Cities now. Very good for the locals to buy their weekly groceries - not so appealing for overseas visitors who want to see real local goods. A more realistic experience would be a collection of local small village markets with only local products - so the money stays in that town.
The tour is superb and excellent value for money.Tour guide was excellent and informal,he made sure he kept you informed with all points of interest.Would strongly recommend that you split your trip between San Remo and the beautiful town of Menton.We have made our views very brief as we could rave about it for a lot longer.

If it is a car and driver that you want, then this is the tour for you....if you are looking for information about the area and where to shop, then you need to be prepared to ask lots of questions. Our driver was reliable but offered little additional to the experience.
