Great for solo travelers and groups! I did this tour because I wanted to get a local view of the town and learn something. Patrice was very accommodating and knowledgable. Glad I went with an empty stomach! The lemon drinks are strong and delicious!
Brilliant food tour!

We had a brilliant time on this tour with Patricia. She was so knowledgeable, friendly and guided us through a range of local shops, market vendors and restaurants. I would definitely recommend doing this tour at the start of your trip so you can use it to influence where you choose to eat or buy from throughout your trip. We have done other food tours where the guides pressure you to buy from certain shops or restaurants because they receive commission but Patricia didn’t do this and you could trust that her recommendations were genuine.
Great food tour!

Excellent tour of beautiful Menton! Patricia is a wonderful tour guide. The stops were all high quality and enjoyable. It was a manageable small group. I was staying in Nice and it was worth the train ride to visit Menton for the day. Highly recommend this tour to anyone staying in Menton or nearby towns.
10/10 would do again - Patricia was amazing!

What a great way to introduce the foods of the region and learn some history of the town of Menton. Our guide, Patricia, was very informative and provided a great insight of the region and its delicacies. We went to a variety of different places each with its own charm and significance to the town. Patricia was very attentive to our group, friendly, welcoming, and provided a great environment for conversation and for asking questions. She also offered and followed through with providing restaurant recommendations in Menton and Nice for our travels. This was a great way to spend a morning and early afternoon, great food and great company!
