We had a nice time with Karin as she is local and was able to walk us to several areas in Nice and walk to the Castle was excellent. She recommended the local restaurants and other areas locals frequent. She also took a lot of photos and gave us extra time and dropped us at the hotel via the tram. Had a nice time with Karin

Dina is a great guide. She arrived on time and and the walk was at a good pace. She took us to a roof top bar for a grand view of the old town and we walked the streets where she gave explanations of the origin and growth of Nice which was very interesting. She also gave us insight into to living and working in Nice and walking in the mountains. We really enjoyed the walk and highly recommend Diana as a guide.Wonderful insight to Nice with great guide

As a solo traveler, I appreciated that Natalia curated the tour to include spots that she gathered from our conversations I would enjoy (non-touristy gift shops, great local cuisine, and outdoor parks). Natalia was knowledgeable about the city, open to questions, and overall an amazing tour guide. I would recommend booking with Natalia for a private tour if you are visiting Nice -- our tour enhanced the activities I did for the remainder of my trip!Like a walk with a friend

The guided visit to Niece by Natalia was interesting, enjoyable and memorable. Natalia did an excellent job pointing out the highlights of the city, and connecting them to history and local traditions in a way that was pleasant and easy to follow. The three-hour visit flowed seamlessly and featured stops at tasty eateries off the beaten path. Natalia is a great hostess. She was punctual and highly professional. Outstanding guide in Niece.

We went from Place Massena through the Cours Saleya market and Old Town up Castle Hill for amazing views and down to the port and Place Garibaldi. Sara was pleasant and informative. She sent dining and shopping suggestions after our tour. We enjoyed our time with Sara and were very pleased with the tour.Nice Highlights

My husband and I had already been in Nice for almost a week when we met Sara for our tour. We we had previously seen many of the regular “touristy” places, we requested that she show us restaurants, bars, parks, streets, etc., that were “off the beaten path” — Sara did not disappoint! As we are older seniors, Sara took plenty of time, walking us slowly up the mountain on a back path that didn’t involve so many stairs. She pointed out small squares, bars and restaurants and even a couple of places where one can hear live music! At the end of the tour, she left us at a tiny Filipino restaurant where the food was out of this world! Since our tour, Sara has kindly taken the time to send me info on other places she thinks we will enjoy which is very much appreciated. If you want a tour that is thorough and tailored to your liking, Sara is your person!Lovely tour with a lovely guide!!

We have had great experiences in other cities with these type of local tours. This one lacked that personalization - the feeling of being with a true insider local. I felt like most of the information would have been easy to just read about or learn from an automated audio tour (at 1/10th the price you can download from other apps). She was very nice, but also seemed a little uneasy and unsure of herself - made it a little awkward at times. This is probably a value proposition - what you get for what you pay for - 3 hours for $180 usd for what we got….definitely not value and wouldn’t think twice about skipping this next time.

We booked a guided tour for 13 persons with Diana. The tour was planned for 13 oktober. First we had a delay for one hour on our flight, and then another delay for three hours. Because of the situation we have cancelled the tour, we could not arrive on time by Diana. All the time we did have good contact with Diana and she gives us a good information about Nice. I am sure that if the tour had taken place, it would have been wonderfull with her! It's a pity that we have payed all the amount for 13 persons, and we did not get a part of the money back....

We are a family of four and booked this tour for our day trip in Nice. Marie was an excellent host of this beautiful city, very friendly, and spoke great English (and was even willing to help us practise a bit of our French, which we really appreciated!). We loved how knowledgeable she was about the wide variety of sites and history of the city, and she gave great recommendations for restaurants and things to do after our tour ended. Absolutely worth every penny for a private tour. C'est top! 👍 Merci beaucoup, Marie!Excellent tour!

Sara did an on the spot modification of walking around Nice and explaining so we saw many new areas we didn’t know existed and had a good feel of the city. Sara gave many tips for areas to see around Nice and also restaurants to try depending on our food preferences. Lovely afternoon exploring Nice

My family and I booked a culinary tour with Natalia during our 4-day trip to Nice. We really really enjoyed our time with her! She was knowledgeable about Nice, super friendly, and organized. She answered our questions about the history of the area and gave us great recommendations for things to see on our next visit. We got to sample delicious local food and she was very accommodating of our dietary restrictions (no alcohol, pork, or shellfish). My parents are still raving about the tour. My only regret is not booking the tour earlier during our stay so don’t make the mistake I did. Book with Natalia and do it early on during your stay. You must book with Natalia!

Also seeing we had gaps in our plans, she offered ideas and suggestions that helped our stay in Nice - just what a friend would do. Thank you again Natalia.A tour guide that felt like a friend

Notre tour gastronomique dans la vieille ville de Nice avec Natalia a été une expérience merveilleuse. Natalia était très chaleureuse et a su s’adapter parfaitement à notre groupe. Elle était très bien préparée, même si nous étions en janvier, une période où de nombreux établissements sont fermés. La visite nous a permis de découvrir le charme de la vieille ville tout en dégustant des spécialités locales accompagnées de vin ou de bière. Natalia nous a également partagé des anecdotes intéressantes sur la culture et l’histoire locales, ce qui a enrichi notre expérience. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié le temps et l’attention qu’elle a consacrés à faire de cette soirée un moment inoubliable. Le rapport qualité-prix était excellent compte tenu de la qualité des dégustations et de la convivialité de l’échange. Si vous souhaitez découvrir Nice autrement, savourer de délicieuses spécialités locales et passer un agréable moment, cette visite est absolument recommandée ! Une expérience formidable

We really enjoyed our food tour with Natalia. We caught the tail end of a storm and Natalia kindly waited with us for 45 minutes for the torrential rain to stop before starting the tour. She was able to answer our many questions about Nice and sent us additional information afterwards. We made 4 food stops and tried a number of dishes very local to Nice that we never would have tried on our own. We thoroughly enjoyed, thank you very much Natalia Interesting tour with lovely guide

We booked the 7pm 10 Tastings of Nice in October for two. Karin was pleasant but the tour fell greatly short of expectations. Karin was a last minute transfer from another guide, who said she couldn’t do the tour because she wouldn’t give us the experience of 10 tastings due to the time and season. Without my consent she transferred it to Karin who agreed to the tour. Karin was nice but she chose one restaurant where she ordered very light appetizers and spent the entire time disclosing personal issues. We then did a walking portion, which on its surface, was good but the stories were disjointed and plainly confusing. We had substantially less than 10 tastings and left feeling emotionally drained, uncomfortable and exhausted from the experience. I contacted the company and received a refund but thereafter Karin somehow found my WhatsApp account (didn’t give it to her) and sent me paragraph by paragraph text messages and ended it with saying that I was a “back stabber.” The whole thing was so frankly unhinged and we are leaving Nice early now. Disorganized and not a good value
