Great way to see the old town - i always try to do a walking tour in every city I visit. I really enjoyed the tour of old nice. It had been over 30 ears since I had been to the city and it sowed me a side that I did not remember. Pamela was a great guide.

Great way to explore Nice! - We had a great time with our guide Jenny and would 100% recommend the tour. She helped us explore Nice through local stories and get an authentic feel of the place. She was also very welcoming and open to questions!

Pleasant walk in a city with great atmosphere and knowledgeable guide - Our guide Leo turned out to be a truly nice guy with great stories to share. He also alllowed for some short breaks to spend some time on the market or in a cathedral. We were a tiny group of only theee tourists so this made it even more intimate and nice! Nice itself is an amazing and beautiful small city with a great atmosphere!

Nice Walking Tour - The hugely knowledgeable Callan gave us a trip to remember. She brought the town alive with fascinating facts and exciting stories of its history. It was paced beautifully and finished with wonderful views from the castle. Nothing was too much trouble for her and all our questions were answered. Superb.

Nice - Old town tour - I went on a solo tour to know more about Nice's old town, and I dont regret it! Callan was our tour guide and she was sharing Nice's history and her memories since she arrived in Nice. She showed us around and talked to everyone, didn't fell on my own at all!! Thank you Callan for this tour!

Amazing tour - If you want to visit Nice, this free walking tour is definitely what you need. Jenny, our tour guide, was really passionate and knowledgeable about the city and she gave us a lot of information on the history, culture and main attractions. She also gave us some tips on restaurants, museums and other available tours. I strongly recommend it.

Just So So - I love doing a walking tour when we first arrive to be able to see where we want to go and explore further, get the lay of the land if you will. Our guide was very nice and I don't fault him for this lack luster tour. It was only 4 of us which was even better but Nice is just so small and there isn't a ton of fascinating history to make the tour worthwhile. We basically did a full circle, killed time in the market which was unnecessary since we had just started the tour and ended at Castle Hill which I thought was more than just a wall. He had some interesting facts but not worth the 2 hours to do the tour.

Not fabulous, but „nice“ introduction - Nice tour if you’re totally new to Nice / Côte d’Azur and want to take an effortless walk around while getting a basic sense and introduction - little information beyond that, probably owing to the fact our guide was not a local, but had her script memorised well - the only information beyond that was where to go out to drink and dance, perhaps not the most interesting information for a group mainly consisting of families ;) Would not say it was „fab“ or „brill“, but good fun, but nothing special.

Poor organization and communication - No communication about getting to Nice from Villefranche cruise port. Missed tour as only taxi was overwhelmed.
