Description

Description

Nice is truly one of the most vibrant cities of the French Riviera, and nothing beats its charming and elegant Old Town, or “Vieux Nice” as the locals call it.

Follow your private, fully-licensed guide as they take you through the small streets of Nice in search for its highlights as well as its best kept secrets. From the Place Massena, one of the most beautiful squares of the city, to the top of the hill, embark on a family-friendly walking tour. The charming narrow streets, the painted facades, the busy markets, the small baroque churches, the old house of painter Henri Matisse… All this and much more awaits.

After a relatively easy climb, the tour ends on the top of the cliff offering the most beautiful panoramic view of Nice and its bay.

Your children will be kept engaged and entertained through a fun-filled game booklet given at the start of the tour.

FAQ's

Is this tour private?

Yes, it is. No one else will be joining your private tour, and you will have your own private guide throughout the visit.

Is there a lot of walking during the tour?

Because our tours are designed for families with children, we make sure the distances are not too long. Moreover, there are bakeries and ice-cream stores along the way, so you’ll be able to treat your children to something sweet during the tour if you want. That will keep them going!

Are the parents staying with the children or separated?

We always promote a family-bonding moment, where parents and children enjoy an activity together as a family. So, parents and children will not be separated. However, if you choose to send your children on this activity alone, it is possible, provided that a babysitter accompanies the children regardless of the age, for insurance purposes (our guides are not responsible for the children).

Is it suitable for kids under 6 years old?

We recommend this walking tour for kids aged 6 or older, because they must know how to read and write in order to enjoy the fun-filled game booklet. Younger kids can join and they will enjoy it, but they will not be able to play the game, unless a parent or older sibling helps.

How difficult is the climb to get to the top of the cliff?

The climb is not that difficult, and the effort is well worth it as the view from the top is breathtaking. If the climb is really too difficult, there is an elevator. The problem with the elevator is that if there is a large group of visitors wanting to use it, the wait in line can last very long.

Can I bring a stroller or a wheelchair?

Technically, it is possible to bring a stroller or wheelchair, but we would not recommend it because of the uneven cobblestone streets, the very narrow sidewalks and because of the climb at the end of the tour.

What happens if it rains?

The tour will take place, even if it rains. Just make sure you bring an umbrella or a rain jacket.

Will my teenage kids like the tour?

Sure they will. They might not want to have the game booklet, but since it is a private tour, our professional guide will adapt their speech to keep your teenagers engaged and entertained throughout the tour.
