    I cannot tell you how grateful I am that you posted today's vlog. Back in November, my husband and I were in Nice on a Viking cruise (small ship). The excursion I had been most looking forward to was a trip to Eze. There wasn't enough interest for that particular excursion, so it was cancelled! I was so disappointed. Not only that, but I had a bad knee which made walking difficult. Thank you for taking us there today. I got to see what I did and did not miss out on! Watching this, I think the walking would've made the experience less pleasurable. Thank you for taking us on this virtual tour instead!

    We went to Eze last year. Got the bus at 9am from Nice and so glad we did, by the time we were leaving it was super busy. We also walked down the path as we couldn’t work out the buses to get back to Nice. My knees were sore by the time we got to the bottom but the amount of people I saw walking up and down in flip flops, great way to a broken ankle. Great video.

    I love your videos, you remind me of me and my hubby in that we don’t like crowds, and we love to buy a sandwich or bread and cheese and sit on a bench or in a park and eat while we are on the road exploring. We also love dining out of course, and prefer small quaint restaurants and hotels over the fancier ones. Simple is always better, more enjoyable and more memorable 💜 You guys are doing a great job… and Twiggy is such a doll… she reminds me of my little fur girl, Lola, very sweet and gentle.

    Nicely done. Indeed, this was a nice place back before some poser bought the whole place up and kicked out the real artisans …used to love the visit and the purchase of unique gifts, but that is over …ah, don't listen to me, that was a quarter century ago. But I truly pity the people who come up here, especially those who take the public buses. Dozens of people waiting for busses that are already full so that they can get back to Nice or Monaco. Once the Monaco Jardin Exotique reopens - wow, a walk from the heights to the grotto as deep as you dare - perhaps that will take some of the pressure off Eze.

    Lovely enjoyable vid as always, guys. Eze is very much like the villages that make up the Cinque Terre in Italy. Usually crammed with tourists and expensive , with beautiful views across the Med. And whenever an American cruise ship docks in La Spezia you can bet your life they all make a bee line for Cinque Terre which is easily accessible by rail, so all you see are Americans! best to visit in spring or autumn. Summer months are too busy. All the 5 villages, are connected by a footpath which is, if you're fit can walk from one to another per day. Each has its own particular character and charm.

    Check Monaco Transport online , or Zou, or the Zest 11 bus, but the one that runs from Monaco Gare SNCF to La Turbie, 2.10 Eu, covers what will be the time trial climb for this year's Tour de France final TT stage. The bus ride is a thrill ride in itself! Also, as you know but the subscribers probably don't -, Roquebrune Village is on the other side of Monaco, a great alternative if Eze is overrun, as it usually is. The fit can hike up to it from the train station. While climbing, the 'asa delta' hang glider people swoosh by and add to the show, the glimpses of Monaco the Magic Kingdom are stunning.

    Boys, if you like the Microlino, maybe you'll like it even more now that it will be available in 45km/h, thus without driver's license. Two batteries will be available: 6kWh and 10kWh.

    This is indeed a fantastic place, the views over the Mediterranean are superb, the tropical garden is truly wonderful.
    The downside is the crowd of people flocking to the place, and the increasingly commercial atmosphere starts to somehow undermine the character of the location. I also prefer quieter environments with fewer people. Tourism is something that brings wealth but can also destroy local traditions and the way of life of the people.
