Our guide was informative and took us to parts of the city we had not been to. He suggested places to go and was patient with our walking a little slower (I tore my meniscus!). Good overview!

Took this tour my first day in Nice and Gianni is a fantastic, professional and very knowledgeable guide who provides a very informative and entertaining tour. I appreciate him weaving together first hand experiences with Nice history giving the tour a more a personal touch.

Maxster

Felt that our guide should have been more versed in the history of the area. Felt we had to ask what was what. However, the young man was very personable.

Hiking to the highest point in Nice and seeing the beauty of the city! Gianni was a wonderful and knowledgable guide who informed us of many facts we did not know of the history of Nice.

GiovanFiore_C

La guida Gianni era simpaticissima e preparatissima, ci ha fatto fare un tour completo di Nizza nonostante il gran caldo. La mia parte preferita è stata la visita alla collina del castello e la bellissima vista da lassù.
