Incredible tour!!

Andrew_K, Aug 2025

Amazing tour and guide!! We learned so much about the history of the city. We were fascinated by what we saw and what we learned. Highly recommended!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you so much for the amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear the Secrets of Nice tour brought the city’s history to life and that the sights and stories kept you fascinated throughout. Your high recommendation means a lot to us—merci! If you’re back on the Riviera, we’d love to tailor another private experience for you—think Monaco & Monte Carlo, Èze’s hilltop charms, or Cannes and Antibes. We can also add local tastings, market stops, or extra time at Castle Hill for those stunning views. Merci beaucoup for choosing Riviera Bar Crawl Tours

Lots of secrets and lots to cover

Fran was an engaging tour leader. She was a bit late. She talked quite fast. It was quite noisy when we’d stop to discuss a topic. She moved pretty fast. My daughter in her 20s thought she was great. Some of us older folks just tried to keep up. Overall an interesting and engaging tour

Late and unprepared

Tracie_G, Jul 2025

Our guide was 30 minutes late. She seemed a bit discombobulated. She was also a bit unprofessional for my taste.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that waiting and feeling the tour wasn’t as smooth as expected can be frustrating. Your experience matters to us, and we’ll review this with our team to ensure guides are fully prepared and punctual in the future. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope we can provide a much smoother experience next time.

Very Nice tour of NICE

Our guide Rafael was truly amazing. Well informed, courteous, polite and very helpful. He made us totally familiar with Nice.

Nice walking tour of old Nice.

Jeff_W, Oct 2021

This was a great way to get a quick tour of old Nice. Between the architecture, the market vendors, and the views from the old fort it was an easy and enjoyable walk. Polina did a great job of hitting the highlights of the city. Highly recommend the tour and Polina!
