      Amazing Trip, Beautiful Views, Fantastic Host and Perfect Date!
      What an amazing boat trip! A PEFECT DATE! Do not second think booking this trip you will love it, as we did. We were only in Nice for a day and was looking for an activity which would show us the beauty of the coast, allow us to enjoy the weather and to enjoy the peace of just being together. The harbour was easy to find by uber and Guillaume was waiting for us on arrival. Guillaume is an amazing host, very knowledgeable about the local sights and had the perfect balance of talking us through the views and allowing us to enjoy the perfect peace of being out at sea. He also allowed us to steer the boat which was an amazing experience! The boat is one of a kind, as it is solar powered. Such a gentle ride, spacious and perfect for taking in the BEAUTIFUL views! We felt completely safe and would absolutely book this trip again if when we next come to Nice. Thank you so much Guillaume, you absolutely made our trip to Nice extra special. X

      Absolutely wonderful trip around the bay area. Our driver was so friendly and told us all about the area and interesting buildings. Incredibly relaxed journey and beautiful scenery. The solar powered boat made the journey so peaceful and quiet. It was genuinely perfect. Thank you

      Amazing. Loved it.
      My wife and I loved this excursion and would absolutely do it again. The driver of the boat was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The boat was a perfect place to hang out in the sun and dangle our feet in the sea. We could not have chosen a better way to end our trip in Nice.

      We (3 friends) had the most wonderful hour with Lucile discussing beautiful homes, life and love. The solar boat was such a brilliant way to explore the coastline, no engine noise or smells, just the ability to take in the glorious views. Brilliant for the mond and soul x

      Fantastic Trip
      This was one of our best excursions during our trip to France, the boat is unique and Guillome was a knowledgeable and informative host. We learned lots of details about the area and some of the villas. The boat is quiet so conversations are easy also there is no exhaust odors. We cannot recommend this tour enough.

      Simple, short, sweet, relaxing.
      We were looking for a boat ride for the off season (as it's hard to find) and came across this. The boat is quiet because it's solar electric. It is exactly as the picture shows. The guide was nice and gave information on the sights along the coastline that surrounds the harbor.

      Glorious November relaxation
      Such a wonderful and relaxing mini sea adventure. Everything from the meet and greet, on boarding and the trip its self was amazing. So relaxing, no noise, no fumes or vibrations allows for a great experience with environmental consideration from start to finish. The owner operator guide was most polite, informative and full of local knowledge and technical knowledge of the boat. I would highly recommend this trip. Also a great start finish location just 3 stops from Nice on the train and a few minutes walk from the station.

      Fantastic!
      We had a fabulous time with Guillaume on the solar boat. Three of us soaked in the incredible views riding around Beaulieu-sur-Mer! Guillaume pointed out a lot interesting sites, told us about the famous people who reside along the coast as well as educating us about efforts to preserve the Mediterranean environmentally. We will absolutely go again.

      Perfect boat trip
      My husband and I had such an amazing experience! We booked our trip for 2 hours and we really enjoyed our time. We got to swim in two different locations and the views were so beautiful. We were accompanied by Jean Michel who was so friendly and helpful. Loved everything about this experience!!

      Steady as she goes
      If you feel the need for speed, the solar vessel will NOT float your boat. Steady, smooth, quiet, peaceful and slow. You won't cover a lot of territory, but you will have time to admire the shore and take lots of pix. Definitely relaxing.

    This was a great boat ride! Very peaceful and Lucille gave us a lot of history about various different houses and points of interest. We stopped in a beautiful area to swim and having the snorkeling gear available was great. (Also, we had to reschedule our initial tour date because of the weather, but they were super accommodating and recommended a day/time that seemed to have the best weather while we were here so we wouldn’t miss it again.) It felt super reasonably priced compared to some other options and we still got to do everything we wanted. Definitely book!

    Guillaume was an exceptional host! He has set up a truly unique experience for his guests and can be tailored to individual needs. Our 1 hour tour of the Beaulieu sur Mer port and surrounding area was one of the most relaxing and enjoyable parts of our visit to the Cotes D’Azur and highly recommend checking out this tour experience. Directions and communication were also accurate and easy to understand. The electric boat is so quiet and the deck space available is amazing. Saw great sights and enjoyed the sun!

    Jean Michel was our captain and he was terrific. He took us all along the coast, told us about many villas and stopped in two places for us to swim. He had goggles and floatation noodles which was great. The boat was silent and it was a peaceful and fun experience. The boat goes fairly slow which was perfect for us. Highly recommended!

    This boat ride was the highlight of our entire trip! It was MAGICAL! 10/10 recommend. I booked a 2-hour tour on a SeaZen boat. Captain Lucy was on time, and very kind to us. All around fantastic. She reminded us that it was a private tour and asked us what we'd like to do with our time. We just wanted to see the beautiful coast of Cap Ferrat and go swimming, so she made a plan! She shared stories and information about the area as she guided us along the coast. The boat goes at a slow pace and it's perfect for enjoying the views and hanging your feet over the edge. We had more than enough time to enjoy the ride, see the yachts, and the coast, and swim. We brought water and rose with us, as well as towels for swimming. Captain Lucy provided some snorkel equipment and noodles for floating. Would book again if back in town.

    Marc was absolutely amazing! My sister and I booked this as a special treat for our trip and it did not disappoint. The location is a bit out of Nice but that makes it even better because Cap de Ferrat is special and we wouldn’t have known to go here

    Marc was an incredible storyteller and pointed out sights like the beach from Emily and Paris (Season 2, episode 2 “St Tropez”). He’s a fan of the show too.
    ☺️ He also allowed us the option to go wherever we wanted.

    Would 10/10 recommend booking a tour with him! Thank you for the amazing time!

    My son and I did this private solar boat tour on a gorgeous Sunday morning. If you are looking for a thrilling, wind-in-your-hair boat excursion, this is not what you are looking for. If you are looking for a relaxing, beautiful way to explore the gorgeous coastline of the eastern French Mediterranean, this is perfect. The boat rolls leisurely and silently, giving Captain Marc the opportunity to explain about the surrounding villas, yachts, etc. We jumped in and swam in two different locations which was amazing-- refreshing and beautiful. This was a great way to spend two quiet hours in the south of France. Highly recommend!

    A great time, a peaceful and quiet walk. Just enjoying the scenery, the captain's comments. Plus: a privileged swim time not far from the former home of actor David Niven. A real moment of happiness.
    To recommend and start again soon.
