This is the right place to start our tour, where I will tell you about the evolution of the city of Nice over the centuries... We will then head towards the famous Place Massena and more precisely towards the Fountain of the Sun.

Place Massena

With its beautiful Piedmontese architecture and its fountain of the sun housing the famous statue of Apollo, Place Masséna is the indisputable and essential lungs of Nice.

Marche aux Fleurs Cours Saleya

Visit the famous Flower Market on Cours Saleya with its bright colors and sublime scents, presenting the flowers of the region, including the famous lavender. Mondays are the time for the antique market.

Old Town

I will show you around the jewels of old Nice, its narrow cobbled streets, its alleys used to keep the cool in summer and the heat in winter. You will contemplate the facades of its old buildings in pastel tones and you will wander in its shops selling Nice soap, Provencal textiles, cheese, crafts and all this is added the scent of spices and food. In this marvelous picturesque and colorful place, you will discover countless restaurants, squares, churches, monuments, museums, cafes, wine bars, ice cream parlors… The beautiful Place Massena, the green spaces, the Cours Saleya with its flower market, the exceptional architectural heritage, the pedestrian streets and the Promenade des Anglais will certainly not leave you indifferent.

Our guide was very personable, had good humor, had wonderful knowledge of Nice’s history, and welcomed any questions. Rather than cancel our history walking tour in the middle of the program due to rain, he offered to resume it in the afternoon when it did not rain. That made for an even longer and more informative tour.

Neijib had much knowledge about the history of Nice and communicated this in a very engaging way. He took a lot of pictures throughout the tour of our group, leaving us with lot of memorys and picture to look back on. Guiding us through the old town of Nice and giving us many tips for the rest of our stay, which among other things made us try seafood pasta at Mamma Mia (by reccomandation from him). This turned out to be the best meal during the whole stay! Probably wouldn’t have eaten here otherwise. Thank you once again Neijib!

Nejib was a fantastic guide . He was extremely knowledgeable and funny . He was also a good photographer . We feel we had the perfect introduction to Nice . An exceptional tour thank you .

Nejib was very kind and informative. I could not locate the meeting point in the beginning. I was within 100 feet of it and Nejib messaged me and then walked to pick me up. There was only two people on our walking tour that day. Nejib showed us the old town, the opera house, the flower market, the church. He explained about the history of the area and the local specialties. Sadly, I had to leave the tour 20 minutes earlier due to travel commitments and I did not climb to the waterfall. Nejib is a superb guide and loves his city!

Nejib was fantastic!!! He did an excellent job explaining the history of Nice and taking us to the significant areas of the old city. We enjoyed that he was patient and took his time with our questions! We especially liked that he was eager to take photos of my family and then sent us a recap of recommendations for restaurants and other things to do while staying in Nice. Would highly recommend this tour! Thank you from all of us Najib!
