Highlights

Place Massena - This lively central square is surrounded by buildings with red ochre facades and arcades, featuring a checkerboard black and white paved area. It boasts a monumental statue of Apollo above a baroque fountain and seven modern art statues.
Opera de Nice - An Opera House, the oldest candy shop, and a Baroque church.
Marche aux Fleurs Cours Saleya - A charming market in old Nice where you can stroll around or sample local street food. In the Old Town, all roads lead to Cours Saleya, a historic square with ochre weather-worn facades, a picturesque backdrop of green woods, and a waterfall cascading from Castle Hill, where an ancient citadel once stood. It’s a perfect spot to enjoy the lively market atmosphere or relax at a cafe terrace and watch the world go by.
Palais de Justice - A beautiful square known for its excellent storytelling.
Promenade des Anglais - The most famous street in Nice, lined with palm trees against the turquoise blue of the Baie des Anges. Since its creation in 1822, it has been redesigned and extended several times, becoming Nice’s showcase. Its name honors the wealthy English tourists who spent their winters here in the 19th century, a tradition continued by Nice’s residents today.
Cathedrale Sainte-Reparate - The main cathedral of Nice’s old town.
Old Town - Wander through the ancient, beautiful streets of the old town.

Incredible day! - Julia took our clients on the most incredible food tour through Nice and then on to an amazing tour and wine tasting at Chateau Bellet. She is incredibly knowledgeable of all aspects - history, architecture, food, wine! All 13 of us LOVED our experience. I will be recommending to friends and family and taking more clients next year!

Ticks all the boxes - From the moment we saw Julia and her red umbrella, we were in safe hands. She knows Nice so well and told us a lot of trivia. We knew about the wine tasting but didnt know food tasting was included and the snacks she served us to try were so tasty. She kept the group engaged and was an overall great guide. Highly recommended tour!

Lovely tour with a knowledgeable guide - Our guide, Julia, was outstanding! Even though I was already pretty familiar with Nice before this tour, I learned so much about the city’s fascinating history, geography, and cuisine. The small group size was perfect for the narrow streets of Vieux Nice, and unlike some larger tours, did not leave me with the uncomfortable feeling that we were in everyone else’s way. The wines we tried were really unique and delicious; Julia did a great job of choosing wines that were unlike something we’d normally drink at home. I had a great time all around.

Walking Tour of Nice France - Julia was amazing. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area. She made sure the 5 of us were comfortable and engaged the entire time. She not only knows her history of the area, but was knowledgeable about wines. I had a lovely time. Rebecka Johnson

Excellent wine tasting in friendly atmosphere - Fantastic wine experience! Very friendly and knowledgeable wine expert Julia led me&my partner through the world of exciting Provence wines. Thanks to the wine expertise of Julia, we learned a lot during wine tasting session and now we know why Provence rose wines are that unique and special!
