Joined this walking tour led by Kathryn. She was really good and clear in relating the history, culture, language and so on of Old Nice! What a great way to start knowing this beautiful Old Town. The pace was good and she paid individual attention to all members of the walking tour, answering every question patiently! I am so glad to have joined this walking tour! What a great way to get to know Nice!
I did a walking tour and a bar crawl on my second day in Nice. The walking tour was very informational and professional. On top of that, my guide was very nice. Definitely a highlight of my trip. The bar crawl is a night to remember and I recommend for everybody to do it! We had solo travelers and big groups, all having fun together. The hosts were engaging and welcoming. Thanks Riviera Bar Crawl & Tours and Visit The French Riviera!
I went to the bar crawl in Paris and it was such a great experience! The guides George and Amine made sure everything ran smoothly and were a lot of fun to hang out with. There was a big group on the night and so was a good chance to meet people. I would definitely do this again when I’m back in Paris.

French Riviera: discover the most beautiful places!
Why is the Côte d’Azur called the French Riviera? English speakers speak of riviera or French Riviera, which is modelled on the Italian riviera, which means “a region characterized by the brutal contact between the sea and the mountains”. In the Occitan language, and whatever the dialect in the whole South of France, the term “riviera” is transcribed by the name “Còsta d’Azur”, not to be confused with “Ribiera” which means a river. In French, for a long time people have spoken of the Rivers of Genoa and Nice.
