Johanna has to be one of the sweetest and funniest tour guides we've encountered. She was knowledgeable about all the places we went and also gave us a beautiful historical overview of th city. Not to mention all of her personal recommendations for things to see and do during our time in Nice. She is truly one of a kind and we were lucky to get to spend a few hours dining with her and picking her brain. 100% recommend this tour with her.

Great tour

Collene_G, Sep 2025

Food and tour were great,Heloise was terrific , friendly and informative .lovely excursion around the “Old town”, convenient meet up location

Tour canceled for Sick Guide

Keith_A, Jul 2025

Les than 1 hour before the tour we were called by the agency. The guide was ill and they could not run the tour today. I want to say that the tour company did what they can when the guide notified them of their illness. They might want to reconsider this guuide if they wait till the last minute to cancel and not provide the company time to find a replacement.

Fantastic -even in bad weather

Héloïse was an excellent guide! It was absolutely pouring during the tour but we still had a great time. She managed to change things up when things were closed. Definitely recommend this tour.

Great tastes surrounded by history

Don't sleep on this tour

Nice treats!

Pam_H, Jun 2023

Awesome tour guide - fun, knowledgeable and engaging. Really enjoyed tasting all the local treats and walking thru the market.

Disappointing

Candice_D, May 2023

My husband and I love a food tour however this tour was very disappointing. The only food we sampled was simply called peasant food and it lived up to its name. Also, the place we first went to eat was closed. The guide was also clueless on where we could use the restrooms.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

We’re sorry to hear that you had this unfortunate experience on one of our tours. Your feedback helps us to improve and as this is a tour that we started recently, there’s still room for improvement. We hope to see you again in another experience!

Loved Old Town Nice

Mary was a great tour guide. She was knowledgeable and explained many different things about the market, the food and some of the history of Nice and architecture. We loved the tour and highly recommend it.
