Overview
Cannes can feel glamorous but impenetrable for first-time visitors and is best navigated with a guide who knows its best bits. This small-group walking tour pairs you with a local who leads you from the Provençal stalls of Marché Forville up through the old town of Le Suquet, then down past the Palais des Festivals to the Croisette. Cover the shopping streets, history, and seafront in one outing.
- See Cannes on foot and access areas that tour buses can’t reach
- Lean on a local guide for the stories and history behind the film festival
- Climb to the city's finest vantage points for panoramic photo opportunities
- Receive a small souvenir as a unique keepsake from your trip

Guide showed up 45 minutes late. Not a good way to start. Not really anything exciting about the tour. Nothing very memorable about Cannes.

Nice not complicated tour, it was hot day the guide was trying to use the shade as much as possible .

Booked the review; then found out that it is also available as a free guided walking tour. The tour guide's explanations were not up to the standard of other guides we've had.

Hi Victor,
Tip based tours are a concept where you rate and tip as you think the guide deserve to be.
The amount you paid on this platform is based on an average tip that people leave along with the platform commission of course, so it is only a fair amount spent in the end (which is exposed to high french taxes and high cost of living in the area). We are still providing an alternative to tours 10times more expensive :-) Nothing is free nowadays and the guides are trying to make a living from sharing their passion to the city.
The guide on your tour was new to the role that's probably why you had this feeling, he might not have said it as didn't wanted to be judged before the start. We all need to start somewhere and even with training, it takes a bit to get fully comfortable with the role. He stll have his guide license which recently took him about 2 years of studies. Of course as far as it is disappointing to us that you didn't had the ideal tour, we appreciate to consider those factors.
Sorry again for the inconvenience and thanks for your understanding.
All the best.
Happy travels :-)

I booked this tour at the last minute and I am so glad that I did. Frederica was so personable and an excellent guide. She took us to see lots of points of interest, as well as the film festival palace. I would not have known that my hotel was this close to the beach had I not gone on this tour.

Lucia was absolutely fantastic and was so helpful, informative and really just perfect - we saw all the sights - and she was good about comfort stops and we had time to browse the food market and sample some produce 100% can’t wait to see her for my tour in Antibes 👍🌟⭐️

Cannes is a beautiful city on the French Riviera, and it was a special thrill to stand near the red-carpeted stairs leading to the Palais des Festival, where our favorite movies and stars are celebrated. The views from the Notre Dame cathedral are spectacular and our tour guide was very well informed and upbeat, making the walk even more interesting. I highly recommend this tour as an easy way to see the city and learn a bit more about its history.

Nice tour sauce and memorable places, the group was large and hard to manage. That said in canns, I would recommend this as a good way to see all the major spots

Our guide was very knowledgeable of Cannes and its history and the importance of the film festival. Went out of her way to make sure we saw the best parts of the city. Highly recommend.

Lovely tour by a lovely guide. Lucia was amazing. Tour pace was bearable amid the heat, and she took the time to answer everybody’s questions, even had a nice chat with some lovely locals around!
She is a true passionate and professional at core, I would recommend this tour and Lucia any day!

Ysa was funny, friendly and took the walking tour at a good pace on a very warm day. A sustainable and fun way to learn about Cannes. Thanks so much.

The tour of Cannes was very informative and showed us the old town, cinema district, and market area. Our hosts were knowable and made the tour fun...
