Hiking with a view!

5.00This was not a light hike. Bring water and good hiking shoes. There are lots of steps and rough terrain. However, the views are spectacular! And this is truly a unique tour that not the average tourist will get to experience. The guide was good. Spoke some English but was very attentive. You are dropped at the beach in Old Town where there is lots of shops and restaurants. There is a quick train ride back to Nice. I was not quite prepared but glad I did it.

5.00This walk has been one of the best times we have had on the Côte d'Azur and all thanks to Silvia. The trail is beautiful, we were almost alone, a luxury to rest a little from the hustle and bustle of Nice. It's a walk of about 2 hours, quite sporty but that walking by the sea on a path full of plants is wonderful. And if you add Silvia’s explanations, the experience borders on perfection. We recommend it!!
