We weren’t sure about this tour since we have been using the big names for our tours.
However, Natalia was such a pleasant surprise as She made us comfortable from the start. The stops we made were purposeful and provided experiences we appreciated and will remember. 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

Renate and I had a wonderful and enjoyable evening with Natalia. She was informative, knowledgeable, and very entertaining. Even though it was winter and many of the places were closed she was able to find some interesting and fun places to sample. Additionally, she provided some great information about what to do and see in Nice and the surrounding areasNice with Natalia

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

She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and gave us suggestions on restaurants to visit later during our stay. Do this food tour with Natalia!!!Amazing Food Tour with Natalia

Natalia is a warm, friendly person who knows everything about Nice. From the history of the food, which we sampled and was very tasty. To the history of old Town and cities history over time, which was very interesting. To the architecture and fake painted shutters you would have never noticed without her pointing them out. She is simply the best, felt like we spent an evening with an old (new) friend! It didn't end there. Afterwards she had remembered ALL the things we chatted about and sent a comprehensive list of restaurant, bars and shops for our reference. If we ever come back to Nice we'll book Natalia in a heart beat just to see her again. Book her!!like an evening with an old friend

We have had the best experience with Natalia in Nice. She really understood how to adapt the trip to what we thought was exciting, so that in a cozy and relaxing way we got a good insight into Nice's history, culture and food traditions - and on top of that an interesting conversation about what it's like to live as a family in Nice .
We can highly recommend Natalia as a guide in NiceA very memorable experience !

We had a wonderful time with Diana! She was an excellent tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about both the food and the city. At each place she brought us to, the staff were very kind and generous with giving us food and drinks, and Diana let us take our time and move at our pace. We had a great time just chatting with her at each stop and as we walked! The food, wine and beer were all so delicious! Afterwards, Diana gave us some great recommendations for other things to do and places to eat in Nice and the surrounding area. This was definitely a great way to begin our time in Nice! So much fun!

Marie was very nice and welcoming, very knowledgeable . BUT, we were expecting a more upscale tasting experience, especially for the price of the tour! Not at all what we imagined it would be.
Started out with a bag of Socca chips and pieces of sausison, ended with a pigeon invested sidewalk cafe’, a tasting in local wine shop. The owner was very nice but we didn’t particularly like the two wines he chose.
All in all, total waste of money
Not worth the money!

As a self proclaimed foodie I had a fantastic experience on this tour. Marie was very professional and courteous. She was easy going and made great conversation. She gave us a history lesson as well as a showcase of local food spots and dishes that are special to Nice. Eating food specific to the region I’m traveling in is something I enjoy and this tour really fulfilled that need. Through I was only in Nice for a short period of time this tour made me feel that I was getting the most out of it. Merci Marie ! Great tour for a foodie

In all my travels, the tour experience is truly about the tour guide. They can make your exploring adventure, memorable, or not.
Natalia surpassed our expectations. She spoke perfect English, was very engaging, and was very knowledgeable.
An additional thing that we liked about Natalia was that she was very interested in finding out about us and then being intuitive about what we would appreciate eating and seeing. She tailored our tour to perfection.
Natalia deserves a definite 10!It’s all about the tour guide!

I had an absolutely amazing time on this food tour in Nice! Our friendly and knowledgeable host, Natalia, guided us through the charming streets, sharing fascinating insights into the local culture and culinary traditions. What made this tour truly exceptional was how Natalia tailored everything to accommodate our needs. My mom has some difficulty walking long distances, and Natalia ensured we could visit all the spots at a comfortable pace for her. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to satisfy their cravings for local cuisine and culture. It’s a must-do in Nice!An Amazing Food Tour in Nice

Diana was a fabulous guide! She walked us through the Old Town and allowed us to work through the tastings at our own pace. The places we went were cute and unique, choosing foods and drinks we would not have tried otherwise, creating the perfect start to our time in Nice. I would highly recommend choosing Diana and the 10 tastings tour of Nice.Amazing beginning to the trip!

Our 10 Tastings of Nice was the perfect introduction to Nice and traditional Niçoise foods! Spending the afternoon with Diana was just like meeting an old friend in a town you had never been and having them take you to all the best spots around. Perfectly paced, tailored exactly to our likes, and ended with an amazing view of the Old Town. We couldn't have started our trip any better than this!
Diana was a wealth of knowledge, who not only knew all the great culinary spots, but also a great deal about Nice and the history of Piedmont-Sardinia and the House of Savoy. This tour is a "must-do," if you want to learn a little something while also trying traditional South of France cuisine.Fantastic Introduction to Nice!

We have been to a similar tour in Lisboa, so maybe we had to high expectations.
Our host Diana was lovely, we liked here a lot.
But the tour we paid for was not what we expected from what we read on the website. We thought we should have 10 tastings of local food with drinks. Of course we understand that a tasting it’s not a big meal or a full glass, but we expected 10 tastings of both food and drinks, who the website was promoting.
It started good at a local restaurant with a local beer and finger food. But further we was just tasting like a tiny, tiny bits of cheese, chocolate bites, truffles, nougat, tapenade, one macarone, and in the end a ice cream (real size this time) We got to taste some milliliters with rose wine when we tasted tapenade. But that’s it with drinks.
With locals writes on their website we should taste 10 tastings with local food with drinks like wine, beer, beverages and coffee. We didn’t get that.
We feel this tour was very overpriced considering what we was getting to taste for food and drinks.
We don’t recommend WithLocals in Nice. Try another firm!Overpriced tour!!

We had a lovely tour with Sara who was very friendly and welcoming and adapted the entire tour to our group as we had already been to the castle as was on the tour plan. 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!

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

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

Sara was new-ish to Nice, so didn’t have the depth of knowledge that some With Locals guides do. She did have some interesting information about the city & mostly knew her way around.
