Guided tours – by car and on foot. I adjust the route and pace to how you like to travel. I show both well-known highlights and quieter corners of the region, so you can experience the French Riviera in a more personal, less crowded way. Tours are available in English, Polish, and French.

The most interesting places on the French Riviera. Here you’ll find attractions from Nice and the surrounding area, making it easier to plan your day and choose the next stops during your stay.

  • New website, same way of exploring

    This website is new. It was created to organise tours, places and trip updates in one place. Content and tours that were previously published on lazurower.com have been moved here and will be gradually expanded.

    If something still looks unfinished or incomplete, that’s normal at this stage. The site grows together with the tours and on-the-ground experiences. Over time, everything will settle into a clear and consistent structure.

A few stops from my tours

The map shows only selected example stops along my routes.

Monaco
Monaco combines a dramatic setting, dense urban structure and characteristic harbours. It is known for its luxury districts and the Formula 1 Grand Prix, which clearly underline its urban layout. The terrain is strongly layered, with a clear vertical division and an old town set on the rock. More
Castellane
Miasteczko–brama w stronę gór i kanionu Verdon, z klimatem prawdziwej Prowansji. Idealne na przerwę w trasie i krótki spacer po centrum.
Dolceacqua
Dolceacqua is known for its stone bridge and castle, famously painted by Claude Monet. The town has a clearly medieval Ligurian layout, with narrow streets and compact buildings. It works well as a place to understand the history of the Nervia valley and local architecture. More

Plateau de Valensole
Plateau de Valensole is known for its wide lavender fields that, in summer, create one of the most characteristic landscapes of Provence. Associated with scent, bees, and traditional farming, it remains one of the region’s most recognizable views. More
Lac de Sainte-Croix
Lake of Sainte-Croix is a turquoise lake at the entrance to the Verdon Gorge. It has gentle shores, a calm character, and small beaches. It is a good place to understand the transition between the open space of the lake and the more enclosed canyon landscape. More

Antibes is known for its historic ramparts, the Picasso Museum, and views toward the Maritime Alps. It connects the old town, port, and fortified coastline, preserving a classic Mediterranean urban layout where history blends naturally with the bay and the sea. More
Grasse
Grasse is known as the capital of perfume, associated with flower fields and traditional manufactories. It preserves the structure of the old town, with narrow passages and tight streets. The city has played an important role in the history of fragrance production on the Riviera and remains strongly associated with it today. More
Gourdon
Gourdon is a stone village perched on a cliff with views over the Loup valley. It preserves a medieval layout and compact built form. It is considered one of the most interesting viewpoints in the region thanks to its location above a steep slope. More
Saint-Paul-de-Vence
Saint-Paul-de-Vence is known for its defensive walls, galleries, and stone streets. It preserves a medieval layout and the classic character of a hilltop village. Strong ties to 20th-century artists still shape its atmosphere and spatial structure. More
Grimaud

Cannes
Cannes is known for its film festival, port, and long seaside promenade. The city has a clear internal contrast between the historic Le Suquet district and the modern waterfront. It remains a structured Mediterranean resort rather than a single-purpose attraction. More
Verdon Gorge
Verdon Gorge is a dramatic natural area in Provence, defined by limestone walls, turquoise water and long scenic roads. It is best explored as a moving landscape, with time to stop, observe and experience the scale beyond single viewpoints. More
Nice
The city where most of my tours begin. It combines the energy of the port, the Promenade des Anglais, and a warm light that sets the rhythm of the entire coast. An ideal base for exploring the French Riviera. More

Frequently asked questions about my French Riviera tours

Krzysztof jędrzejczyk, selfie na placu MassenaMy name is Krzysiek. I am a licensed VTC driver and a local guide on the French Riviera. I run full-day, small-group driving and walking tours that combine travel comfort with a natural way of discovering the region. You can learn more about me here.

VTC carte, VTC card, karta VTCVTC (Voiture de Transport avec Chauffeur) is an official French license for professional tourist transport drivers. It allows me to legally and safely transport guests throughout the region, including access to authorized roads and parking areas. For guests, this means safety, comfort, and full compliance with local regulations.

Mercedes-Benz V-Class na białym tle, otwarte drzwiWe travel in a Mercedes-Benz V-Class (2021), configured for tourism. The vehicle features a panoramic roof, fridge with drinks, multi-zone air conditioning, a large trunk, and adjustable seats. It accommodates up to 6 passengers plus the driver, offering space and comfort even on longer routes.

Each tour combines driving with walks through the most beautiful places in the region. We visit towns, viewpoints, and local attractions, often away from the main tourist routes. We stop where it makes sense—to take photos, have a coffee, or simply slow down and enjoy the moment.

Each tour is planned individually, depending on the season, weather, and guest preferences. I know the region very well, so I can suggest places that best match expectations—whether someone is looking for nature, history, or exceptional views.

Routes may include canyons, medieval villages, seaside resorts, and viewpoints overlooking the Mediterranean. I often take guests to lesser-known places that show a more authentic side of Provence and the French Riviera. Most (but not all) locations can be found here.

Yes. Private tours are available, even for one person. The entire day is adapted to your plans and pace, and I help design the route to make the most of your time. This can be arranged here using the planner.

The Mercedes accommodates up to 6 passengers. This number allows for a relaxed, small-group atmosphere and an individual approach to each guest.

Yes. Please let me know the child’s age in advance. If a child seat is needed, I provide one with prior notice. For younger children, I can also adjust the program or pace of the tour.

The price includes transport in a Mercedes V-Class, fuel, road tolls and parking, VTC driver-guide services, drinks and snacks in the vehicle, and pickup and drop-off at your accommodation. Entrance tickets to attractions are not included.

Yes. I pick up guests directly from their accommodation in Nice or along the tour route and drop them off at the same place afterward. If the pickup location is outside the route, the cost is agreed individually.

Most tours are full-day experiences, from morning until late afternoon. For shorter routes, half-day or afternoon options are also possible.

Bookings are accepted via the tailor-made tour form, individual tour pages, or by email. Contact details, including phone and WhatsApp, are available on the Contact page. In practice, the form works best—it helps me understand your needs and arrange a suitable time to talk.

Yes. I operate throughout the year and advise which routes work best in each season—for example, mountain areas in summer and coastal routes in winter. This keeps each tour meaningful and enjoyable.

Yes. Walking pace is adapted to the group. For guests with limited mobility or those who prefer a slower experience, a private tour is recommended, allowing the day to be planned individually.

VTC tours offer flexibility, privacy, and calm. There is no rush, no crowds, and no rigid schedule. It’s just you and your group, stopping where it makes sense. You also travel in premium comfort with a personal approach that mass tours cannot offer.

I am available from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, both before and after booking. Guests can contact me with questions or changes at any time.

Comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing are enough. The vehicle has cold water, snacks, and a fridge. Umbrellas and sun scarves are available if needed.

Yes. I speak Polish, English, and French, so every guest can feel comfortable and fully understand the stories I share about the French Riviera.
