I work with the concierge desks of Four Seasons, Carlton Cannes, The Unbound Collection by Hyatt and Le Negresco: their guests are referred to me for private tours of the French Riviera, and their standards are the ones I hold myself to.

Luxury, Defined by Details

What Makes a Private Experience With Me Luxurious

Luxury on the Riviera is not gold leaf. It is time, attention and access, and every one of my experiences is built on them.

Entirely private, never a group

Only you and the people you choose. No strangers, no fixed script, no waiting for the last of the group.

A state-licensed guide, not a driver

The French professional guide card is earned through university studies in art history and heritage, not self-declared. It is a guarantee of accuracy, depth and professionalism in everything I tell you.

Private transportation included

An all-electric vehicle for up to 3 guests on most experiences. For larger parties, my partner drives a premium chauffeured vehicle while I guide.

Pickup where you are

Your hotel, your villa, the Villefranche tender pier or the Nice cruise terminal: the day starts at your door and ends there.

An itinerary designed around you

We shape the day together before you arrive, then adjust it on the spot to the light, the crowds and your curiosity.

Direct contact with me

You write to me, not to a call center. WhatsApp, email or phone, before, during and after your stay.

Concierge-level planning

Tables worth booking, the hour a village is quiet, what is open on your date, the viewpoint most visitors miss.

The slow-travel pace

Depth over quantity. We linger where the light changes on the stone and leave room for a glass of rosé at sunset.

Transparent prices, per group

One price for your party, never per person, with the vehicle, the pickup and my time included. Entrance fees are listed separately.

The Story

A Passion for
the Côte d'Azur

The French Riviera has always been more than a destination to me, it is home. I grew up in Paris, but ten years ago this coast became my life, and between the ochre façades of Nice and the timeless hilltop villages, I have built a deep, personal connection with every mile of it.

With a license from Paris-Sorbonne and a master's degree from Nice, followed by years of further study in art history and heritage, I became a state-licensed tourist guide. It is a qualification built on accuracy, depth and genuine local expertise, not a simple credential.

"The Riviera deserves to be experienced slowly, thoughtfully, and with full presence."

Whether you're planning a private tour of Nice, a private guide for a day in Monaco, or a fully custom itinerary across the French Riviera, every experience starts with a simple conversation.

Philosophy

The Art of
Slow Travel

Rushing between cities diminishes the experience. I favor depth over quantity, lingering in medieval villages, finding hidden viewpoints, and leaving room for a local rosé at sunset.

Saint-Paul-de-Vence

Savor the
Moment

Every itinerary is paced to be felt, not rushed. We pause where the light changes on the stone, and take the time a place deserves.

Guestbook

Traveler Reflections

Our tour with Pacôme was absolutely phenomenal. His knowledge of Nice went far beyond what any guidebook could offer, and he shaped the day around what we actually cared about.

Sarah & Michael Bennett, USA

What an incredible experience. Pacôme didn't just show us the sights, he brought the history and the people of this coast to life in a way we'll remember for years.

Jennifer Cole, USA

Pacôme nous a fait vivre la Côte d'Azur autrement : loin des sentiers battus, avec des anecdotes passionnantes et une vraie complicité. Une expérience à refaire sans hésiter !
