Very nice visit of old Nice with Sarah. Unforgettable and enriching experience on the history of its old neighborhood. Being able to circulate through this maze and discover the habits of its inhabitants, it is fascinating. Not to be missed!
Terrific history of Nice with a well educated tour guide whose name was Aline! She made sure everyone in group was comfortable and happy. Do this tour!
Thank you so much! Our guides, like Aline, are true locals — passionate and specialized in the rich history and culture of Nice’s Old Town. We’re so glad you enjoyed the tour and hope to see you again soon! Nice Creative Tours Team
Very good guided tour of Tourgide Carmela through the old town, recommended, with many good tips and exciting stories about Nice
History of Nice on a beautiful day. Aline was wonderful and informative. Greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Had a wonderful walking tour of Old Nice with Lara. Small group, just us and another couple, was the perfect touch as Lara was able to tell us about the city through conversation vs. typical tour guide stopping points. Highly recommend!
The walking tour of Old Nice was well worth it! Our guide, Carmela was fabulous! She had put a lot of time into her research to deliver a fascinating tour of this beautiful area. She took us to areas less frequented by tourists and gave us great recommendations for dinner and gelato both of which we absolutely loved. Definitely would recommend and if Carmela is your guide, that’s an added bonus!
Our guide Sunil was a mine of information both informative and amusing about Nice and its rich history. At all times he kept us in the shade when he was imparting gems of knowledge about Nice past and present. This tour is well worth the money and we thoroughly recommend it to visitors to acquaint yourselves with Nice and its layout on your first morning. Thank you Sunil!
Carmela was an amazing Guide and really made Nice come alive with her enthusiasm. Her personal touches and small detours (such as to see Halloween decorations) were not something I would find in any online experiences and sets her apart from other "local" Guides - she spends her personal time in the area of the tour.
Old town Nice is amazing to see. There were only 4 people in our group. Laura was a great guide, very knowledgeable. Easy walk.
This tour is very informative, I really loved it, our guide Carmella is so passionate and showed us hidden Gems in Old Town, I really recommend it!
