5.00My friends and I would definitely recommend this walking tour of Menton. Thanks to our excellent guide, Cyril, we discovered many historical and practical facts about the city that would otherwise have escaped us. It is also a great way to find your bearings on arrival. Highlights included the lovely old town, the Basilica of St Michael, and the stunning views. Unfortunately the Botanical Gardens were closed at the time, but we were delighted to visit the Salle des Marriages which had been off limit to the public earlier in the day. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk with Cyril. He is extremely knowledgeable and very engaging. (We visited the Botanical Gardens another day - fabulous!)

5.00We found in Samuel, our guide an excellent guide through the old town of Menton and the botanical garden. Extremely helpful and kind made us discover parts of the city that alone we would never have known. He gave us a lot of interesting information so we could live our stay in Menton with more awareness. I travelled with the family, the children enjoyed the visit.
