5.00Unsure of our route, we arrived at Garibaldi Square early to meet out tour guide for the Nice Old Town Food Tour. We met our beautiful tour guide, Heloise, with a pan bagnat in hand, ready to show us the way. We were the only ones on the tour so we got to know Heloise well as she explained the food of the area as well as a bit of history of the region. She was charming and very knowledgeable while very personable. She took an interest in our preferences and brought a bit of sunshine to an otherwise very rainy, dreary day. Being the only people on the tour, she took us to a local store of particular interest to us. Heloise gave an overall great food tour of Old Town Nice and did it with charm and warmth. We greatly enjoyed spending time with her and particularly enjoyed her recommendations for spending the rest of the day in Nice. Merci beaucoup, Heloise!
A perfect way to learn about Nice

5.00My husband and I had a wonderful food tour with our guide Isabel who was excellent. She toured us through the market-tasting our way through. Isabel knew exactly where to stop to present the best examples of the regional favorites. She also gave us a great overview of Nice and its history. Isabel made the day perfect.
Highly recommended

5.00We had a great walk through the old town. Great stories about the history and it's connection to the local food. Our guide was Isabel, who freely interacted with random locals who contributed more information from their memories and experience. That enriched our experience.
