Full description

Start from Beaulieu's marina (Nice Côte d'Azur Metropolis), between the city center Monaco and the city center of Nice. Enjoy a cruise on a private boat accompanied by a guide that will show you the famous spots along the coastline of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. Admire the famous villas of Kerylos and Ephrussi Rothschild, and the iconic hotels La Reserve and Royal Riviera. Discover the mooring in front of Villa David Niven above crystal-clear waters or sail between the yachts. The ship is a 100% solar-powered, silent and odorless electric boat with the ability to cruise at a close distance to points of interest. The boat is license-free so that you can take the opportunity to drive as well under the guidance of your private skipper guide. At the end of the tour, return to Beaulieu-sur-Mer's Marina. Your tour is a private one that’s customized and priced for a group of up to 6 people. All you need to do is bring your sunscreen, sunglasses and cap.

The seazen is aptly named: a calm, gentle stroll, embellished with comments and anecdotes from “peoples” in an idyllic setting. The MUST is a short swim in crystal clear water with a solar electric boat without any engine noise or smell… TOP. A big thank you and ride to do again… Tom

This boat excursion was so much fun! Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area. Plus, he allows you to customize your time, so we stopped and jumped into the sea! It was fabulous! Another good point is the solar point is environmentally friendly and had no exhaust fumes. I would encourage you to book a tour!

Fabulous boat trip, definitely to be recommended.

Three of us enjoyed this private boat hire with great views of the private villas of the rich and famous on a lovely stretch of the Cote D’Azur. The solar powered boat was completely quiet and glided along - we loved the fact that there were no diesel fumes. Definitely much better than a trip on the crowded pleasure boats of the big operators. The owner (who skippered the boat) was very knowledgeable and was able to point out lots of interesting things. Very good value for money.
