Tour description
Nice is the glamorous capital of the French Riviera, but beneath the palm-lined promenade lies a warm, sun-baked old town with a distinctly Italian soul. On this walking tour a local guide leads you through the layers of Niçois history, from its origins as a Greek and Roman settlement to its golden age as the winter playground of European aristocracy.\n\nYou will wander the ochre lanes of Vieux Nice, browse the famous flower and produce market, and stroll the legendary Promenade des Anglais beside the shimmering Bay of Angels. With its blend of French elegance and Mediterranean flavour, Nice is a joy to explore on foot.
